November 13, 2009, Newsletter Issue #192: Choosing a Ski Vacation Rental Destination

Tip of the Week

No two ski destinations are the same. Consider these factors when researching potential ski vacation rental destinations:

Resort Demographics: Some ski resorts are family-oriented; others cater to singles and couples-only. Some ski destinations offer a bounty of attractions and activities off the slopes; others are all about the ski experience. Check the stats on current weather and ski slope conditions. It’s no secret that ski resorts are cold. However, some mountains are colder than others and some slopes require more endurance to rugged elements.Personal Ski Levels: Some ski resorts are not suitable for beginners; others are not challenging enough for expert skiers. If your ski group is mixed, opt for ski resorts that offer opportunities for all skill levels. Your Travel Budget: Like golf, skiing is not a “poor man’s sport.” That said, ski vacations run the gamut from luxury to affordable. Top-of-the-line ski equipment and the trendiest togs don’t come cheap, but there are ways to look the part without breaking your budget. The best ski destination is one that matches your personal needs, expectations and budget. Continue on for more information on using these factors to plan the perfect ski vacation.
