AVON, COLO.—The Westin Riverfront Resort & Spa, Vail Valley’s newest green resort, has opened here in Colorado. The upper-upscale resort offers scenic views of Beaver Creek Mountain, access to the Eagle River and signature Westin services and amenities. The Westin Riverfront is on track to be the first upscale resort in Colorado to achieve coveted LEED certification from the U.S. Green Building Council. Unique green programs include guest recycling stations on every floor, preferred parking for hybrid vehicles, an on-site organic garden and the protection of open space through the donation of a five-acre park to the Town of Avon.

The cornerstone of a $500 million condo hotel development, The Westin Riverfront features 210 guestrooms ranging in size from studios to three-bedrooms. The contemporary guestrooms are designed to promote balance and well-being with expansive windows, spa-like bathrooms and gas fireplaces. The Westin Riverfront is connected to Beaver Creek Mountain via the Riverfront Express Gondola, which delivers skiers and snowboarders to world-class terrain in less than three minutes.

The Westin Riverfront’s 23,000-square-foot Spa Anjali offers signature spa treatments inspired by healing traditions of the mountains. Spa Anjali has 14 treatment rooms, a full-service salon and a complete fitness center with yoga, spin and Pilates classes and extensive exercise equipment. As the premiere green spa in the Rockies, Spa Anjali carries only environmentally-friendly products, including Amala Beauty and Anakiri. Restaurant Avondale, led by acclaimed chef Thomas Salamunovich, will delight diners with its West Coast-inspired seasonal menu that focuses on purity of ingredients and simplicity of preparation.

Developed by East West Partners, The Westin Riverfront was designed by the architectural firm of Hornberger & Worstell of San Francisco in conjunction with OZ Architecture in Boulder, Colo. The interior was designed by internationally recognized leader Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, LLP.
