Vail Village is the center of the Vail Valley scene, both night and day, winter and summer.  The main Vista Bahn chairlift depart from this base area, and within a radius of a few blocks you'll find a variety of shops, restaurants, nightclubs, and hotels.  Accommodations in this area tend toward the upscale end.

Since many of the streets in the heart of Vail Village are pedestrian-only, the best way to access the Village is either to take the free, lift-equipped Town of Vail shuttles that stop there or to park at the Transportation Center, located just off the I-70 Frontage Road, just above Vail Village itself. Two-hour short-term parking is available near the pedestrian village.
