For two
Slopes by day, candlelight by night.
The Vail Valley does unhurried romance effortlessly, the high alpine by day and a glowing farmhouse table by night.
Design This TripBegin with a creekside suite at the Sonnenalp or a fireplace room at The Sebastian, where the staff quietly stocks champagne before you arrive, then carve fresh corduroy with a private instructor in Beaver Creek.
Afternoons slip into Allegria Spa's aqua sanctuary for a couples' treatment as snow falls, and evenings belong to candlelit Belgian-French dinners at Mirabelle in its historic farmhouse.
Arrive by sleigh.
The signature night is a horse-drawn sleigh to Beano's Cabin for a multi-course feast under the stars. In summer, we swap skis for a sunset balloon flight and a quiet picnic beside Beaver Lake.
