Room was very clean. The upgraded king bed was nice and comfortable. The location in Lionshead is very convenient and close to the shuttles. Will definitely rent this unit again.
Fabulous location - close to everything in Lionshead. We enjoyed checking out all the local restaurants and being so close to the gondola. And the outside porch was fun to have. Furniture was ok but not the most comfortable. Would be nice to have a light by the couch to read with. There is a closet to hang things and key tip to store suitcases under the bed. The building just opened a hot tub on the same floor - we did not use it as was very busy but looks really nice. We parked in the building's lot for 50@ night. Public parking is 64/night.
We had a great time in Vail. The condo was as advertised. The only thing I could say, as in other reviews was that it was dark in the living room area. Could have used a light In there. I had to read with my flashlight on my phone at night. Perfect location, right in the heart of Lionshead.

The location is excellent. The property is right in the middle of the Lionshead village. Literally few minutes walk to the gondolla and chair lift.
Be aware. This property is rented via VRBO, so the studio is not part of the Lifthouse lodge operations. Meaning, you get no housekeeping for the week, no fresh towels, you have to take out your trash, etc. plus you pay more than the initial rate per night. There is cleaning fee, extra person fee, some other fee, taxes, etc. So, the rate per night comes to be a lot more than advertised.
The main problem was the lack of hot water in the shower in the evening. The water temperature was only lukewarm. Imagine showering in cold water after a day on the slopes! We communicated with the host. He responded promptly and was getting in touch with the lodge management. Supposedly they turned the temperature up…. But nothing changed! Still no hot water in the evening, probably they only have one old water heater that is just not enough to supply all the rooms.
Otherwise, great stay. Love Vail. Good location
Great, very clean room and the bathroom was remodeled since last visit. Location is perfect with a great view of the mountain. Very close to shopping and restaurants in Lionshead and a close bus ride away from Vail Village.
Had a fantastic stay here. Great place to stay with kids since the ski school and ice rink are just a stones throw away. Convenient ski rack in the unit makes storing your skis overnight very easy. We loved coming back in the afternoon and watching the skiers come down the hill. Great view! Incredible number of shops and restaurants nearby. Everything we needed was in Lionshead. Both the building and unit were very clean.
Antoine made the whole process super easy. Would stay here again.
This tiny condo is minutes from the ski lifts and a convenient walk down the elevator from the 4th floor and around the Arabella Hotel. Nice bed, but with a light and table on only one side. No light in the living room other than from the sliding glass door and kitchen light. Minimal kitchen items; if you plan to drink wine, be sure to bring a corkscrew and wine glasses.
The elevator was shown as an amenity yet the elevator has been down for months. I was on the 4th floor and had to walk 4 flights of stairs wearing ski gear.
Great location. Unit was as described. But soap dispenser was empty, and toliet seat was loose. I still have an issue, with only providing 2 rolls of TP, for a 4 day stay. LOL
I did send a text message to the one of the numbers show in the email, 2 days before my arrival asking about transportation questions, and never received a response???
Once we entered the apartment/condo it was just as pictured. Very clean and a nice view of the square below and the mountain beyond. The parking was a bit of a surprise but maybe we just hadn’t read the details ahead of time. Be prepared to pay $50-$60 a day and park in the garage across the way. The property in which the apartment was located was unimpressive… boxes in the entry, plaster chips everywhere… to be fair there were obviously some construction projects underway but the halls were all in need of a good vacuum, the elevator was broken and the stairwells were freezing. On the bright side, the staff were friendly, there was a real Christmas tree in the little foyer and the apartment was well equipped and perfect for two people. We would stay there again.
Overall a great place to book and would visit again! I am giving the accuracy of online listing 3 stars because the unit I arrived to was not the one I booked. The host was very easy to contact and reassured me that this was due to an upgrade as the unit I was assigned had AC. It would have been nice to have a heads up on this. I was worried I was in someone else’s property or that another guest was going to arrive.
Very convenient property. Minutes from the slopes and several restaurants. It is an efficiency, so a very small kitchenette with a small refrigerator. No oven or toaster oven. Very limited kitchen supplies, but enough for what we needed. Nice balcony overlooking the slopes and the shops. I wouldn't reccommend more than 3 people stay in the property (king size bed is very comfortable and my son said the sofa bed was comfortable for a sofa bed).
