Montage Big Sky

The Montage Big Sky is an exceptional ski in/ski-out mountain resort and has become one of our favorite winter destinations. The location, accommodations, and amenities are luxurious but it’s the personalized service that makes Montage Big Sky a very special experience. Huge shout out to the concierge and F&B teams who went the extra mile to enhance our stay by creating memorable dining experiences, including a special tasting menu and wine pairing. Thank you Chef Tim, Ethan, Eleanor, and Daniel in Cortina! I also want to thank the Compass Sports staff who take all the work out of getting your gear situated each day. It’s amazing how quickly you can be out enjoying the mountain when the team at Montage takes care of the pain points that come with getting ready to hit the slopes. If you are looking for a luxury ski resort that offers more than just a premier location, the Montage Big Sky will exceed those expectations and you will leave wanting to return soon.

Hardware is solid with well appointed rooms but the service is unbelievably atrocious Yesterday we checked in at 3.30pm and the valet team then misplaced all our suitcases, which then took them 90 minutes to finally locate and bring to our room We asked for a rollaway bed for our child upon check in (at 3.30) and had to follow up with them multiple times (each time with them saying that the bed is “on its way”). It finally arrived three hours later when my kid is almost passed out already from jet lag Came back from skiing at 3pm today and the entire two bedroom is still a mess and housekeeping didn’t even come yet. Without a doubt, the worst 5 star ski hotel I have ever stayed at. Please stick to tried and true brands like Stein in Deer Valley. This place is a joke

Amazing, expensive but quality was fantastic, great attentive staff, great food, all in all just a fabulous place. Definitely hope to come back here again. Food at restaurants better than when we came 2 years ago. Great bartenders all around and staff was knowledgeable Can’t say enough how well oiled this place is.

The main issue is with sustainability. The Montage is a highly profitable luxury business and could and should do so much more in terms of environmental stewardship. The most basic things - such as recycling - were not offered and, when at least 2 other guests in addition to myself inquired about recycling and other environmental concerns pertaining to the property, the front desk staff dismissed us by saying it was "too hard." Yet, the ski resort itself is able to offer both recycling and composting. There is no reason the Montage cannot as well if it is willing to expend the funds and the effort to do so. We paid more than what some people make in a year for a week in one of the larger residences at The Montage. Money should be no issue. The Montage has the opportunity to make real change and be a true leader; it is distressing to see maximization of profit take precedence over doing the right thing. The other two issues are less significant, however, we had difficulty with inconsistent service (some excellent, some terrible) at the front deskand at Compass, the sports provider from whom ski rentals and other outdoor activities are booked. Compass was inconsistent and, while not bad for experienced skiers, the worst of any luxury ski resort I have ever been to; it was vey much "self service" and, while, again, that's perfectly fine for experienced skiers, I felt sorry for the beginners who couldn't get their boots on. Some days, a line of staff would be eager to help; others, your skis would just be lying outside in the snow - just very inconsistent . Overall, the property is absolutely gorgeous and our residence was beautifully appointed; however, the inconsistent front desk and Compass service, coupled with the more important sustainability concerns, mitigate against our likely return to the Big Sky Montage. I will note housekeeping was wonderful and the spa therapists were consistently excellent and the shuttle service was good. There is a dairy-free, vegan pizza option at the pub that is actually delicious and very healthy, which was fun to try and there was a pop up Asian fusion with fabulous apres ski drinks and the most unique and delicious mushroom skewers - however, that is being replaced soon, so get it while you can!

We were here second time for ski week - having traveled globally and being avid ski family, this is really the best mountain / resort to be. Best ski valet experience. Every staff member really cared and did everything they can to make our trip special. Service is top notch even compared with the best around the world. We were super impressed by personal touches and warm follow ups by Joan - Director of Rooms and Christian, the GM. Super highly recommend this place - especially for families ! We will be back again !

Amazing

Our family vacation at Montage Big Sky was nothing short of magical! From the moment we arrived, we were enveloped in the warm Montana hospitality. We were especially touched by the General Manager's (Victorio) personal greeting upon arrival; it truly made us feel incredibly welcome and set the tone for an exceptional stay. Our kids had an absolute blast! The bowling alley was a huge hit, providing hours of fun and friendly competition. The simulator was another favorite, offering a unique and exciting entertainment experience. And of course, the snowboarding was incredible! The slopes were pristine, the conditions perfect, and everyone, from beginners to more experienced riders, had an amazing time carving down the mountain. Beyond the activities, the service, accommodations, and overall ambiance at Montage Big Sky were top-notch. It was the perfect blend of luxury and rustic charm, creating unforgettable memories for our family and our friends. We can't wait to return!
