Amazing experience! We stayed in the Octagon. It was perfect given there were just two of us. The snow was amazing (even with the mild winter). New snow making was fantastic. The customer service/hospitality is over the top. The view is incredible, food delicious, atmosphere is unmatched. I can't say enough about our experience. The workout room was sufficient. The yoga/stretch room is beautiful. The pool/hot tub nice atmosphere. Should be on every skier's bucket list. It's a special spot.

Awesome old-school hotel at 9800 feet in the Andes. Excellent meals, first rate service, comfortable room with a beautiful view. The skiing is fun too! The apres ski is legendary. Lots to do too, from Heli skiing to massages to swimming and hot tubbing.

What a great family ski experience !! We booked a “mini-week” for us (2 adults & 2 kids) ... and it was really one of our great trips. The level of service in the hotel is just amazing ... everyone strives to serve you with a great smile. .... We are definitely coming back next year !!
