✨ AMENITY HIGHLIGHTS

🌄 Ski Mountain Views — The upper lounge's soaring cathedral windows deliver direct, unobstructed views of Vail Mountain's ski runs. It's one of the first things guests notice and one of the last things they want to leave.

The lower-level den gives you a completely separate hangout space with a large flat-screen TV, pull-out sofa, and its own kitchenette — so the group can spread out, not pile on top of each other.

Our stay at Wapo Chalet was easily the best stay I have had to date at any airbnb thus far. Matt and his team were highly responsive since the moment I booked, and continued to follow through until check out. All instructions were accurate and clear, house was in pristine condition, and fully stocked. The house looked exactly as displayed in the listing. Matt's response time was impeccable - we didn't have detergent, and within 10 minutes, staff showed up with detergent at our door! Truly an unmatched vacation experience - we will be back again. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

This home was worth every penny. The house was incredibly clean and well-stocked with all essentials. The location could not have been better-both close enough to walk to Lion's Head Village and secluded enough to hike and see the stars. The hot tub was immaculately clean (thank God) and the grounds were well kept with ample parking. The hosts were very easy to reach with questions and proactive. My family has already asked when we can come back.

We visited Vail with three couples and the house couldn’t have been nicer. The home is absolutely stunning - warm, elegant, and incredibly comfortable with tasteful décor, and a true mountain luxury feel.The location is perfect. It’s extremely close to Vail Village and the slopes, yet tucked away enough to feel peaceful and private. The free Vail shuttle into town and to the lifts is literally a one-minute walk.Inside, every amenity you could possibly need is already there. What truly set this experience apart was Matthew. His communication was outstanding from start to finish responsive, clear, and proactive. Our return flight back east was unexpectedly canceled and we were in a stressful situation trying to figure out next steps. Matthew could not have been more accommodating or understanding. He worked with us and graciously allowed us to extend our stay, which made a difficult travel disruption so much easier. That level of hospitality is rare! A five-star experience!
