Olympic Escape Options are Plentiful with Aston Hotels & Resorts

 

HONOLULU, HI (November 30, 2009) – More than 1.5 million visitors are expected to descend upon the British Columbia city of Vancouver for the 2010 Winter Games in February, increasing its population by 50%.  Vancouverites who dream of escaping the hustle and bustle can now opt for a getaway to all-season mountain destinations in South Lake Tahoe, California and Sun Valley, Idaho, or to hotels and condominium resorts on four beautiful Hawaiian Islands with Aston Hotels & Resorts’ Olympic Escape Specials.

 

Lake Tahoe is a skier’s dream with its big air, deep powder, and legendary vertical drops.  The Big Blue, as it’s referred to, averages 274 days of sunshine, 300-500 inches of snow per year and enough downhill and cross-country variety to show even the heartiest skier something new every day.  So, come and catch a natural high on the slopes in South Lake Tahoe with Aston at Lakeland Village’s Olympic Escape. Package is $249 per person, based on double occupancy, and includes: two nights in deluxe studio accommodations; two lift tickets daily, with a choice of five world-class ski areas (Sierra-at-Tahoe, Kirkwood, Squaw Valley USA, Northstar-at-Tahoe or Heavenly); daily continental breakfast and complimentary Lakeland Village shuttle to Heavenly Mountain Resort, casinos and around South Lake Tahoe.  

 

In 2008, Conde Nast Traveler ranked Sun Valley, Idaho the 6th best U.S. ski resort, but not every winter activity here requires a lift ticket. In addition to world-class downhill, Nordic, cross-country skiing, snowboarding, and heli-skiing, Sun Valley supplies winter wayfarers snow shoeing, snowmobiling, dog mushing, sleigh rides, and ice skating for a memorable winter wonderland experience.  With so many winter activities to experience, you may need an extra day to channel your inner-Olympic athlete. Aston Hotels & Resorts Sun Valley’s Olympic Escape offers a Fourth Night Free when you pay standard rates for your first three nights.   

 

Aston Hotels & Resorts Hawaii also offers 25 hotels and condominium resorts across the Hawaiian Islands that match any lifestyle, taste or budget.  The diversity of Aston’s accommodations serves a variety of guests from families to wedding/honeymooners, active travelers, golfers, and health & wellness travelers.  Aston Hotels & Resorts Hawaii Olympic Escape offers up to 40% off best daily rates at participating Aston properties.  Rates start from only $83 per night and are valid through 12/21/10.

 

Every property offers a unique balance of value and amenities such as a complimentary Aloha Book filled with valuable offers on attractions, dining, and shopping valued at over $2,500.  Also, Kids Stay Free at Aston and receive exclusive free offers at some of Hawaii's top restaurants, activities, and retailers.
