WHY IT RATES: The comprehensive renovation will transform the property and will include remodeled guestrooms, residences, and a redesigned lobby. -Mia Taylor, TravelPulse Senior Writer.


To remain the luxury hospitality leader in Vail, Colorado, Four Seasons Resort and Residences Vail will undergo a staged renovation beginning April 2019 while remaining open to the public.

Once complete, there will be nothing like it in Vail. The premier ski resort will take full advantage of its unrivaled setting as the "Front Door to Vail" and continue to be the place for both locals and visitors alike who want the sophistication of Four Seasons while enjoying the legendary setting in Vail Village.

In partnership with the resort's owners, EX Vail experienced Four Seasons Resort Vail General Manager Meredith Macfarlane will spearhead the exciting project.

"This comprehensive resort transformation will be a design evolution which, I have no doubt, will further enhance what guests experience at the Resort today," says Macfarlane.

Construction will begin in mid-April 2019 and run through 2020. The work will include:

-Refresh and remodel of hotel guest rooms, suites, and corridors

-Conversion and remodel of twelve private residences

-Transform Flame Restaurant into a new conceptualized restaurant, exploring unique flavors and cuisines, as well as a redesigned space

-Refreshed meeting space

-Redesigned lobby

-New luxury retail experience

-Design details

The building's design elements will transform the Vail property with a stylish makeover that will complement the cool-chic character first introduced with The Remedy Bar.

The tailored mountain modern design will incorporate clean, contemporary lines, paired with organic textures and colors that complement Vail's breathtaking mountain landscape.

Local stone and wood will add nice touches to all the fireplaces, nature-inspired carpet, leathers, and textured fabrics; all combined to create a sophisticated resort feel.

"The design of the renovation achieves the perfect balance of contemporary and mountain rustic," said Dana Kalczak, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts vice president of design. "This will be a truly transformational renovation that will create a strong spirit of place with great style."
