How to save money on your Vail Vacation
Vacationing in Vail Colorado is quite expensive these days. A typical winter time vacation is almost out of reach for most middle class families. Therefore, here are some ideas on how you can make a trip to Vail afordable and have a great time.
First of all Vail is not like most places where you need to have a vehicle. As long as your Vail Lodging is on or near a bus route, you will not need any transportation and the bus is free! If you fly in to Denver, you can reserve a Shuttle to Vail. It is only $59.00 to the Vail transportation center, and if your lodging is on the bus route, then you can take the bus from there. Door to door service is slightly more expensive.
The biggest way to save on your Vail Vacation is to stay at a Vacation Rental Home in Vail as opposed to a hotel. This is very cost effective when travelling with more people. You can rent a home for a fraction of what it costs to stay in a hotel and becuase these homes typically sleep more people, your cost per person is quite cheap. Lets say you stay in a three bedroom house that sleeps 8 people. That would typically be $500 – $600 per night at a hotel for the two rooms. A vail vacation home may only cost $200-$350 per night.
If you happen to know someone who works on the mountain, they usually get half-price lift tickets. Even if you offe them 75% of the retail value, you both win. Also when you go skiing, don’t eat a big meal on the mountain, it is very expensive. Instead, hit the grocery store and get granola bars etc… This will allow you to take advantage of the whole day too.
