About this chalet rental
Welcome to Le Chalet Après.
This timeless two-story townhome has been updated with all new furnishings and Après-chic décor offering an inviting retreat to relax and recover after an active day a short 5 minute drive to Vail Village and Lionshead.
Discerning guests will appreciate well-appointed details and higher-end touches than typical to ensure you truly feel at home, with the convenience of being only 0.2 miles from West Vail Mall, the "Express" bus stop to Vail Village, and local hiking + biking trails out the front door in summer.
Enjoy the perfect all-season mountain getaway!
COMMON ROOM:
The top floor features an accommodating gathering area with pine vaulted ceilings, an abundance of windows + natural sunlight and alpenglow views that afford a greater sense of spaciousness and alpine appeal than a typical "ski condo."
At night relax by the wood burning fireplace, play Spotify and a selection of board games or watch movies on the 75” Roku TV with complimentary premium house-account streaming channels.
KITCHEN/DINING:
Home cooks will appreciate a fully equipped kitchen with chef-quality Le Creuset cookware, Japanese knives, an extensive range of kitchenware ,dinnerware and... an authentic easy-to-use Swiss fondue set we encourage guests to enjoy!
Fire up the gas BBQ to dine al fresco on the deck in the summer or gather inside around a welcoming dining table and formal table settings for a proper home cooked meal to toast a memorable day spent together.
LOWER FLOOR/BEDROOMS:
The split-level floor plan is ideal for kids and guests to retire earlier among the 3 bedrooms + 2 bathrooms downstairs while others lounge and socialize in the upstairs common area.
Featuring new high-end mattresses + linens, hotel quality alternative down comforters/pillows and plush towels, as well as "smart" Roku TVs in each room. The larger bathroom has a shower + bathtub for guests with smaller children and the other features a shower + washer/dryer.
REMOTE WORKING:
The ultra high-speed Wi-Fi easily supports simultaneous video calls, TV streaming and kids on Tic-Toc or gaming. A wireless printer is also provided as well as laptop friendly tray tables and a small fold-up "desk" to afford privacy in bedrooms on conference calls.
YOUR HOSTS:
As the owners, you'll engage with us directly rather than a management company with a logo as its profile and countless listings since this enables us to accurately answer questions, ensure quality control, accommodate early check-ins or late check-outs and assist you with trip planning + local tips. Please note that we do have a professional cleaning team and local property manager if unreachable. And as seasoned travelers with a hospitality background, you’ll also benefit from our outfitting and maintaining things to meet our own high standards, since we're occasionally guests too!
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:
• Carport parking spot (w/enclosed bike storage) below unit + 1 spot in adjacent lot
• Be assured a bus seat as 1st stop back to Village – a luxury when standing room only!
• The 0.2 mi walk down the street to free town bus involves a gradual uphill on return

• 6 persons max and no pets for stays under 30 days (per HOA rules)
• Discounting available for long-term stays - please inquire for details
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This property is not suited for loud groups due to adjoining units, but is perfect for socializing with family and friends at typical volumes while respecting full-time neighbors. Please find another option if noise or partying could be an issue to avoid any interruption to your plans by Vail's finest.

It's rare that a property is actually better than the photos shown, but that was the case at Le Chalet Apres. It was like a West Elm catalog, but with cute wall decor added (my favorite being the cuckoo clock).
The bedding was high quality, the towels were fluffy and absorbent, and the nice touches like live plants, extra toilet paper, etc. were much appreciated.
Communication with the hosts, Adam & Bree, was excellent. It was so easy to check in and the directions for leaving were in print by the door. We talked with Bree after we had a mishap (get the insurance!) and she could not have been more understanding.
I can recommend Le Chalet Apres without reservation.

We absolutely loved our stay in the Apres Chalet. The place is so well appointed. Very clean. Great furniture and fittings that tie to the vail location. Beautiful sunset views. Also such easy bus access to the vail village so no need to drive after having fun in the village. All instructions were 100% clear with no issues on entering or leaving. Adam is a great host with a ton of recommendations that helped maximize our time there. Loved the place. Only wish we could have stayed longer.

We were so happy with our stay at here! Adam was very responsive to every message, and the check-in and check-out process was very easy. The place itself was accurately advertised; it was extremely clean and impeccably decorated! The attention to detail was awesome. Every little thing we needed was stocked, from bath tissue to extra towels to laundry detergent. There were plenty of blankets for our family to have movie or game nights. We were traveling with our two kids, ages 12 and 8, and both got their own room. They LOVED having their own spaces, and we all had plenty of room to spread out and have privacy. The temperature was comfortable, with a great cross breeze during the day and lots of great sunlight. The price was definitely affordable, the neighborhood was very safe and quiet, and we were a super quick drive to Lionshead and Vail Village! It was very easy for us to get around. We highly recommend this location!! It was a perfect spot for our family.
Side note: we did a horseback trail ride at Beaver Creek Stables not far up the road! We were able to make last minute reservations, and had an amazing experience with our guide!! Highly recommend! Both kids were begging to go back for a longer ride.

We stayed at the property for a weekend. The description was accurate, the views were great, and the place was very clean. Adam was very responsive. I asked for activity ideas and he provided a very comprehensive list. Checkin and and check out were a breeze. I really appreciated the night after a wedding not needing to take out garbage or strip sheets. I would definitely stay here again if we are in the area.
