Avon Homestays

SO... My purpose of being there was to be close to where I was having surgery (in Vail). I was so looking forward to being in a luxurious hotel where I could enjoy the views and have a nurturing place to return to post surgery to start healing and doing Physical therapy. I was told that it was ”15 minutes to Vail and my clinic” - which was not the most comfortable way to get there - in a shuttle bus with many steps and cramped seating. Our room (I travelled with one of my dearest lifelong friends who also was my caregiver) was nice enough -one bedroom suite. It had 1 bathroom we shared - again that was OK. However, the room was the furthest (distance wise) room from the front of the hotel ! There would have been no way that I could have walked post surgery the distance. Also while we were there the elevators were down and only 1 was working. Between the large dogs running around and mothers with double-wide strollers - there was absolute craziness ! My special diet was not handled properly - instead of a ”Cauliflower steak” they served me STEAK with cauliflower. I basically could not eat for 2 days - not good for pre surgery. (they had heads up too!). That was pretty much the last straw - sealed by getting slammed in the foot by an aggressive mom who said as she got into the elevator ” I am coming in no matter what - room or not!” At that point, I had to get another hotel and move to a much better match for the remainder of my trip. I could not take a chance of someone running into me post joint replacement !!! Seems to be the place to be with your large dogs and children - not for a calm environment. Anyway, that was my experience. Hope y'all have a better time!

The Ritz Carlton Bachelor’s Gulch is truly a skier’s paradise! From the moment we arrived under the log porte-cochère, we knew we had stepped into heaven. The entire lodge has the feel of a warm log cabin, with upscale features. Friendly faces are all around to tend to one’s every need. This ski in resort takes going to the slopes to another level. You are mere footsteps to the chair lift that will whisk you away to the best slopes we have experienced in quite a while. There is a ski shop right on property where you can buy lift tickets, rent equipment, and buy clothing items for your time on the slope. Very convenient! If other forms of exercise is what you are looking for, the Ritz has a wonderful workout facility adjacent to a spa that hosts a “grotto” for your relaxation pleasure. There is also a massive swimming pool and hot tubs if you would like to take a dip, while snow tumbles all around you. As far as restaurant choices go, we had the chance to experience Wyld-upscale dining with an open kitchen and views of the slopes. There are also other options such as Sakaba, the Japanese restaurant on property, The Market for quick bites, and the Fireside Bar for apres ski delights. The rooms have had a pleasant makeover and they are quite beautiful with a modern flair. The beds are very comfortable and the bath products smell terrific! The hotel has thought ahead by having humidifiers in the rooms since the air is dry, which is a special touch. Housekeeping did an awesome job at keeping things fresh and feeling like everyday was the first day. We stayed on club level which made meals and lounging time something that we didn’t have to plan for. The five food offerings met the needs of both adults and children, never leaving anyone hungry. This area took the stay to another level! Again, the Ritz knows how to give its guests a pleasurable stay with its service. In particular, Anna and Enrique on Club did an EXCELLENT job!!! We have stayed here in the past and this stay reminded us as to why we always keep coming back. You will not be disappointed with your trip to Bachelor Gulch when choosing the Ritz Carlton!

We stayed here for a week the end of July and beginning of August. The main issue this place has is no air conditioning. You really can't get the rooms comfortable in the summer so take that as very serious advise. The rooms, while rather small with small balconies, were clean and well provisioned. We were close to the end of the hall so didn't experience any noise issues, however further up the hall many families had their doors open trying to create drafts to cool their rooms and the conversations did carry quite loudly in those areas. Staff was friendly enough and helpful while a bit slow. I would guess because of staffing issues. Good location especially for walking around to restaurants, the park etc. It was very hard to get luggage trolleys most likely because either there weren't enough or people just weren't returning them. Would I consider staying here again? Probably in the winter I would, but not in the summer unless they install AC.

Wow! I was impressed. I have felt that the “Comfort Inns” have been a little lacking in the past few years regarding cleanliness, lighting, breakfast, etc. as a matter of fact, even though I was a “choice member” I avoided staying at a Comfort Inn. I had no choice and had to stay at one in a different location a couple weeks ago and it only confirmed my thoughts, “don’t stay there”. However, this one at Vail/Beaver Creek was quite different. It was clean, lighting was bright, even had hot soup and hot cocoa in the late afternoon waiting when we got back from a fun, cold day of skiing! I liked it so much that I actually recommended this particular Comfort Inn to others.
