It has been a while since I skied Vail. The terrain was awesome and the snow great - got snowed actually, A skier can't ask for more than being on ski vacation in a snow storm!. But I found the glitz thing in Vail was not for me. I want to wear my puffy jacket out at night and found there were spots that definitely divide the ski crowd from the jet setters. Not a laid back - too much social pecking order. I'd go again for the skiing - not so much for the scene.
