Get ready for a luxurious ski adventure! 🏂 The iconic Park Hyatt Beaver Creek Resort and Spa, a ski-in and ski-out paradise, has unveiled its refreshed rooms, and we're here to give you an exclusive peek.
You might be wondering why this hotel is so hard to resist. Well, imagine a ski-friendly haven where you're just steps away from the ski school and the lifts. Yes, it's a skier's dream! But here's the catch: while I occasionally explore other ski hotels or opt for more budget-friendly options, I always find myself longing for the simplicity and luxury of the Park Hyatt Beaver Creek.
This longstanding resort, open since 1989, has recently undergone a stunning transformation. With 190 newly renovated rooms and suites, it seamlessly blends modern comforts with alpine charm. But don't expect over-the-top opulence; the rooms embrace a more understated elegance, resembling a chic alpine chalet.
The Design: Picture wood and leather accents, and colors mirroring the mountain's palette of browns, whites, and blues. Ski-themed artwork adorns the walls, while practical features like wall hooks for gear and a cozy bench with a table for snacks enhance the overall experience. And here's a family-friendly twist: many rooms now accommodate up to four guests, thanks to the switch from double to queen-sized beds.
Skiing Convenience: One of the hotel's biggest draws remains unchanged. On one side, you have the Beaver Creek ski area, with the ski school just 20 steps away. On the other, a winter wonderland awaits with the village, ice rink, and more. Plus, the hotel's ski valet service ensures your gear is ready each morning, and the ski lounge offers complimentary hot chocolate and a wall-size map to plan your adventure.
Indulgent Treats: The legendary s'mores tradition continues! Create your own s'mores with pre-packaged kits from the front desk or visit the s'mores bar on select afternoons. For a more substantial meal, the 8100 Mountainside restaurant serves up seasonal mountain cuisine, albeit at a price. But here's a tip: if you have World of Hyatt Globalist status or are a Globalist Guest of Honor, you'll enjoy a discounted buffet breakfast.
Spa-like Bathrooms: The renovation extended to the bathrooms, which now boast a brighter and sleeker aesthetic. Think vanities with reeded wood accents, white shower tiles, and marble floors and counters with captivating veining. Le Labo bath products, fluffy robes, and towels complete the spa-like experience.
The Spa: If you have the time and budget, the Exhale Spa is a must-visit. Its Aqua Sanitas water sanctuary is a multi-step circuit featuring a thermal pool, mineral pool, rain shower, steam room, and aromatherapy lounge. Trust me, it's the perfect way to unwind after a day on the slopes.
Booking Tip: Ski season rates can be steep, often starting at $1,000 per night and soaring to $2,000 during peak holidays. But here's where it gets interesting: you can use World of Hyatt points to book your stay, with redemptions ranging from 35,000 to 45,000 points per night. And the best part? Paying with points exempts you from the $60 daily resort fee.
In summary, the Park Hyatt Beaver Creek's iconic status is well-deserved. Its prime location, ski valet service, and outdoor hot tubs are just the beginning. With the recent renovation, the interior now rivals the resort's stunning surroundings, ensuring an unforgettable ski vacation.
