The ski-in / ski-out was a great feature, just a very short walk (1 minute) from the slope to the house. We loved having the private hot tub too! Overall, the house was excellent - clean and comfortable, with a reasonably well-equipped kitchen (except a full set of measuring spoons/cups would be nice); we cooked most of our meals. It was well-equiped with towels and supplies for our party of 8. Aloha was very responsive, not that we had any real problems.Additional bonus - they arranged to have 6 feet of snow the week we visited, so it was the best skiing conditions we've every experienced!The only downside is that the Dave Murray trail that the house is on is blue / black, definitely not good for beginners, and it takes a long time to get down, so we ended up having most lunches on the mountain rather than skiing all the way down twice a day. (Partly this may have been because conditions were not nearly as good on the lower third of the mountain, which got a mix of rain/snow.)That said, we would absolutely book this house again if/when we return.
