SKI ASPEN SNOWMASS
ASPEN SNOWMASS SKI RESORT ACCOMMODATIONS
1. RENT A CONDO OR RENTAL HOUSE INSTEAD OF A
HOTEL ROOM. Aspen Snowmass condo prices run slightly
higher than hotel rooms, but over a week’s stay you’ll save big
on meal expenses. A family of four can easily save $25 or more
by eating breakfast at the condo and even more at lunch.
2. BRING ALONG ANOTHER FAMILY TO SPLIT THE CONDO
COST. Three and four bedroom town homes can be rented for
approximately the same cost as a nice one-bedroom condo.
Bring along friends or another family to split the accommodation
cost.
3. CONSIDER RENTING BY OWNER. Many Aspen Snowmass
condo owners rent “by owner”, meaning you’ll save an average
of 25%. This is the normal percentage charged by rental
management companies to “rent” individual condos. Plus,
many management companies are now tacking on additional
cleaning fees, extra deposits, etc. The downside to renting by
owner is that most do not accept credit cards and may not be
able to respond quickly to maintenance issues. There are
several reputable websites listing condos for rent by owner,
including www.vrbo.com and www.greatrentals.com.
