We had a wonderful stay in panorama. This unit had a comfortable bed, was nice and central to the upper village, and had everything we needed. Highly recommend!
Property was in a great location and was able to accommodate our family of 4.

Great property. Easy check in and check out. Underground parking. Very clean and quiet building. Comfortable beds. Activities close by and everything was walkable and the restaurants on site were great.

Ski-in/out was great. Super close to the pools and restaurants. Building was very quiet in general. The standard condiments in the fridge was appreciated and there were lots of kitchen utensils and cookware. Dishwasher was a massive plus!
Very cute and clean unit :) we loved it.
When we arrived the front desk had given our keys away to someone else but quickly retrieved them. We would rent it again
The room was great. Very clean and cozy. There was a small hiccup with check in but I think that was an issue with the resort not the hosts and it was resolved quickly. We had to check in late and the hosts were fine with that, which we really appreciated it.
The unit was small but comfortable. The couch was especially good for sleeping for kidsThe unit was very very convenient for rentals, lifts and the hotel pool. Kitchen drawers didn’t were very difficult to open ‘ cloae. Never could figure out dishwasher so just washed dishes by hand.

Hi Rod, Thank you for your review! I'm glad you found the unit comfortable and conveniently located near rentals and lifts. I appreciate your feedback about the kitchen drawers and dishwasher; we’ll look into those issues to enhance our guests' experience. Thank you for staying with us, and we hope to welcome you back!
Room was good. AC was really nice. Only thing was coffee maker leaked all over the counter and did not brew more than 1/2 cup at a time. Had to keep unplugging it and turn it back on. Overall was a great room and would definatly come back.
Stay with the mountain properties. Way cheaper in the long run
Just stay somewhere else, this property management company is the worst I’ve ever been involved with. Hidden costs, no lift ticket deals. No service. Just a grab your cash type company.

Great location...outdated and broken equipment
The location was great...however, the fireplace did not work, the cord to the nightside table lamp had been cut and didn't work. The top shelf of the fridge froze my fresh chicken. The right bottom burner on the stove did not work. The oven kept turning on and off as I tried to use it. The sofa was far too lumpy to sit on and there was very little room for storage. UGH!!!!! My daughter rented another condo in the same building for almost the same price and hers was excellent. Modern and everything worked. I would NOT recommend this unit!!

Tired unit, many things broken.
I am usually pretty relaxed and have never done a negative review.
But I feel quite disappointed with this unit.
Couch-couldn’t sit on-springs poking up-my friends needed to sit on pillows to stop the springs from the couch cushions from being uncomfortable. (I took photos of this).
Opened up the hide-a-bed for them to sit on and one of the pieces was bent making it difficult to open/close.
Light beside bed has cord completely cut so no light.
Thermostat not working, so even though I had it set to below 15*, the temp in the room was 23* resulting in me opening up the windows in Feb in winter at a ski hill-what a crazy waste of energy.
Only the heavy duty cycle worked on the dishwasher-would have been nice to have a note regarding this.
The large burner on the stove didn’t work properly resulting in 40 min to cook pasta.
The unit is tired and looks like it has been used a lot.
On a good note, the bed was comfortable, unit in an excellent location.
