This was our first trip to Colorado. We took our kids too because we were there for a family wedding. Our kids ages ranged from 9 to 23 and they all had great time. They hiked, swam in the pool, laid around in the hot tub, ice skated and jumped on a trampoline. There was plenty to do to keep the kids occupied. We even found a little adult time as the cousins hung out. The wedding was on the grounds with a reception in a private room of the restaurant. The food was excellent as well as the cake. The service was exceptional as well. Worth a visit.

Having stayed at most of the hotels and condo properties in Beaver Creek, I think the location here is by far the best. You are right on the slopes and in the village, making it very easy to try different places for lunch and dinner.

While they have definitely updated their decor, the bathrooms were clearly missed. The tub was borderline gross, at first I thought the cleaning people missed spots but it was just wear and tear on the tub. The beds were very clean and comfortable, and the rooms were large. It was also nice to have a balcony. My only other complaint is that the rooms are not very soundproof, there were times we felt like we were sitting in our neighbors room participating in their conversation.

The main space of the hotel is definitely it's draw. From the live music in the lobby and the bar to the fireplace outside, this hotel is definitely the place to be. I must say though, if you are looking for a romantic getaway, I'm not sure if this is it. It's definitely geared towards families. McCoys and Shannon Tanner is right next door, which is by far my favorite place for Apres ski.

While pricey, if you can afford it, this is one of the best hotels in Beaver Creek.

The Park Hyatt in Beaver Creek is the ultimate getaway. A local Denver business school has used this location to host an annual series of events for corporate executives and alumni. I have worked this event two years in a row now and had the opportunity to work closely with many of the staff, stay in their beautiful rooms and enjoy multiple meals at the restaurant. The staff has always done an amazing job to cater to our events, our needs and our guests. The rooms have always been clean and fresh every evening before bed. Additionally, this year I was able to enjoy the fitness room and spa as well. Let's just say the outdoor jacuzzi's located at the base of the mountain are the best I've found yet! The Park Hyatt simply has one of the best locations in the village. I have little doubt our event will be at the Park Hyatt again next year based on our success and satisfication each year.

So, where do I begin. The Hyatt has been a Christmas family tradition now for us for four years now. It is simply one of the most amazing places we have ever been. The rooms are nice, the restaurant is unbelievable; we had breakfast there every morning and dinner one night. The location is the best in the area and the ski valet makes everything so easy. S'mores and cocktails in the afternoon around the firepit is another one of our favorites. The spa is also top notch - my wife and i both checked it out this year. Seriously, just go, you won't regret it.
