I’m just not a skier. Growing up in Michigan surrounded by snow, most everyone I knew loved to ski. Five years ago we moved to Nashville and while I still don’t ski, I do adore the social setting, dining, and services of world-class ski resorts. As a member of the Travel + Leisure Magazine Advisory Board I have the distinct privilege of visiting and working with some amazing hotels and resorts, and I am thrilled The Montage Deer Valley, Park City, Utah with you.

The avid skier knows the Deer Valley ski resort has been ranked as America’s No. 1 ski resort by readers of SKI Magazine 2008-2013 and resort guests enjoy a coveted location atop Empire Pass with a true ski-in and ski-out experience. There are also three high-speed chairlifts and a ski concierge who will service your skis, warm your boots, and arrange for your lift tickets and lessons to ensure all you have to focus on is having a wonderful time on the slopes.

If you’re more like me and would prefer to explore this refined, mountain resort, then you will be thrilled to find it has a 35,000 square foot spa which offers signature spa treatments and all guests have complimentary access to the indoor lap pool, outdoor pool and sundeck, full service salon, fitness center, sauna, movement room with a full calendar of complementary wellness classes, and more.

The culinary arts are quite fine at The Montage with Apex offering a local flavor and farm to table dining presented with remarkable style. Daly’s Pub & Rec offers a playful social setting with an open kitchen, flat screen TVs, and bowling on four regulation lanes. The Vista Lounge and Terrace is the entertainment lounge featuring awe-inspiring views, handcrafted cocktails, and alpine-inspired cuisine showcasing live music daily. We may leave Music City for a dream vacation, but we still appreciate great live music wherever we go. If you’d like to dine in town, Park City Main Street is only five minutes away and offers plenty of shopping too.

The accommodations are some of the finest in North America with 154 deluxe guestrooms averaging 600 square feet and 66 suites and residences ranging from one to four bedrooms and 1,000 to 3,200 square feet. All of these amazing rooms include a cozy gas fireplace, stone bathrooms with soaking tubs and heated floors, signature bedding and linens, state of the art technology, including complimentary Wi-Fi, and of course their amazing mountain views.

In addition The Montage also offers year-round, outdoor activities in addition to Paintbox, their summer kids program.  Our Privileged Journeys luxury travel advisors at Travelink, American Express Travel will be happy to personally craft a custom itinerary for you, so all you have to do is enjoy the setting and your company.
