Hilton Vacation Club Tahoe Seasons Lake Tahoe

8/10 Good
"This is a well-maintained property in a beautiful setting next to Heavenly Valley. Three things about it surprised. 1. Nothing besides Heavenly is w/in walking distance. You're several miles up some steep hills from SLT restaurants so don't expect to talk to a nearby cafe for breakfast (which is not served at the hotel). 2. Rooms are only cleaned if you stay 5 nights or more. You can request new towels (etc.) but no maid service for short stays which surprised me at a $300/night place. 3. Parking is only by valet. The cost is included in the room, but there's still the time factor to consider. Waiting behind 5 parties for your car to be fetched was common for us and took at least 10 minutes each time we left. Other than that stuff (which savvier travelers might already know), the place is very nice. The room was super clean and plenty roomy. The bathrooms were very modern and attractive as well."

"When was nice in the sunset tower which here’s never than the rest of the buildings. The shower, however, had some inconsistent water pressure and I had to adjust the showerhead to get it flowing. TV streaming had some glitches but room was nice. Decent size with two queens updated bathroom however no bathtub. Outdoor pool was great though windy and cool while we were there. Surprised there was no hot tub as some sites appear to claim there was a hot tub, but there was not. Easy access to the Caesars Tahoe amphitheater within a short walk. Front desk had heavy accent so difficult to understand. I called guest services from my room phone, but it did not call the front desk. Get called a third-party booking service who could write a ticket for service but could not help me get service quickly."

"Location was great. Right near the beach where you can watch the sunset. Room was very dated, but surprisingly convenient. The mini kitchen was well stocked with utensils which we found super useful. They were very clean too, which surprised us. You could easily bring your own food and eat in the room or the tables outside. The only downside of this hotel was the room we were given was on the ground floor with little to no natural light coming though. There was also a dog staying in the room next door which was a ‘service dog’. I say that in the loosest of terms as it wasn’t obvious what the dog was servicing. It wasn’t a guide dog.. but I think people use the label of service dog as a way to take their dogs on holiday. There is no breakfast at the hotel.. but having kitchen allowed us to have preparations for the kids before we left the room. Pools were nice.. indoor and outdoor pools. The car park felt like it was a bit of a rip off.. they would park the cars in the public car park opposite, and charge you for the convenience of them bringing the car to you. You could probably save $30 a day parking yourself at the same place. However, this isn’t advised by the hotel.. they make you feel like there is no other option. The other downside was the sales team at the concierge.. as soon as we checked in, we were pounced on by the Hilton vacation club timeshare sales team who wouldn’t let us get on with our day. Felt really uncomfortable walking past the lobby."

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Emerald Bay?
The best time to visit Emerald Bay is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is warm and all outdoor activities are readily available.During this period, temperatures typically range from the mid-70s to low 80s Fahrenheit, creating ideal conditions for hiking, kayaking, and paddleboarding on the lake. Boat tours operate frequently, offering unparalleled views of Fannette Island and Vikingsholm Castle. This is also when the water is warm enough for swimming, making it superb for families looking to enjoy the beach areas.For those who prefer fewer crowds and cooler temperatures, the shoulder seasons of late spring (May) and early fall (September to early October) are also excellent choices. The weather is still pleasant for outdoor activities, and the changing foliage in the fall offers a beautiful backdrop for photographs.
