Combination of location, price and property management tough to beat. Great setup for our group of friends and so easy to grab the free shuttle and/or walk. Loved being able to ski back to the condo after a day of skiing. Only thing that would've been more ideal is to have been able to just check in online rather than having to go into the Village. Other than that, I'd highly recommend!
We took the kids to Whistler while they were both on semester break. The heated floors in the bathrooms were really nice in the mornings. There was a stop for the free bus right next to the driveway, but it was about a 5 minute walk to the gondola if you prefer to walk.
Easy walk to village, 2 great bedrooms, 1 bunk room, 3 great bathrooms, heated floors, well equipped kitchen, gas fireplace. One complaint is no salt and pepper, no starter laundry detergent. We had some interaction with the management company and they were quick and responsive
The location was a short 10 min walk to the upper village/Blackcomb base via the trail behind the chateaux Whistler. My two teen boys fit well in the small bedroom on the entry level. The garage is very small so if you need to fit a big truck you may want to use the visitor parking, which usually had open spaces.
Suggestion to the owners would be to get a smaller coffee table and L shaped sofa bed and place a small desk in the area next to the sliding doors. Lots of people work remotely these days and a desk/work area would be helpful. better lighting with a bright lamp would be nice. There were a couple of burnt out light bulbs which made it even dimmer inside.
The place was large enough for grandma in her own room and mom and dad in the other room and cousin on the sofa bed with teen boys in the twin bed room. All in all a great stay but the place could use a little better functional space and updated decor.
The kitchen, in general was dirty and sticky. We cook in - no decent pots and pans and the stove was a literal piece of garbage. Fold out sofa was not usable and there was no central air or decent airflow to open the windows. Mountains are gorgeous.
We were three friends staying for a short visit to W-B. The condo was conveniently located, it was a short walk to the upper village and in the morning we could ski down to the Blackcomb gondola via the footpath past the Fairmont.
The condo itself was warm, comfortable and met our needs/expectations for the trip. We really liked the entry way from the garage - I'm not sure if this is intentional or not, but its effectively a 'warming' room: we would leave our ski boots, gloves, and gear there after a day of skiing and the next morning everything was dry, warm and toasty. It was great. The garage is really tiny though, so make sure you park outside and unload everything before attempting to park in the garage. There are a few small issues inside the condo - the utensils and dishes were pretty shabby ("well-used" might be a good aphorism), the toaster didn't work well - you needed to hold down the lever for it to operate, the dishwasher didn't exactly clean the dishes that well, there was no laundry detergent, etc.
All that said, the showers were hot, the linens and towels clean, and the condo was very comfortable. We would definitely stay there again, with expectations adjusted for the above-mentioned shortcomings.
Place was good and as advertised. Worked well for ski weekend with myself and two friends. Found the trail for ski in ski out which worked well and it was great not to have to drive. Downside was a very limited kitchen with a few glaring omissions including vegetable peeler and salt and pepper
The rental was perfect for our needs. We really enjoyed the access we had to all the trail systems. The location was fantastic as we were away from all the hustle of the main townsite but could walk there within 5-10 minutes if needed

Our rental experience was great. The house was very clean which is super important in my opinion. It was a close walk to down town and the market and an easy bike ride for the boys to the bike lift. Lots of room and it was so nice having 3 bathrooms. The young lady at the front desk was very friendly and helpful, making sure we had maps of the area.

Airbnb was close to the mountain - about a 15 minute walk to Blackcomb Gondola, but it is easier to get to the gondola via the free shuttle right outside.

Overall a good experience and had a great vacation. Upstairs rooms were very comfortable. The den room is not good for adults. The kitchen knives were very dull. Lots of cheap kitchen accessories in the cozy kitchen.

Really great location. Short walk to the Village. Accommodated large family. Limited kitchen/cooking utensils was challenging. Minor maintenance and appliance repairs required.

This is a great apartment in a great location. The description on the website is accurate and we had everything we needed for two great weeks. It is a short walk to the wizard chair lifts for spring season skiing on Blackcomb. A short walk into Whistler Village. The agent dealing with my booking was extremely helpful. A couple of minor things need tweaking at this property and I have informed the agent of these. A warm and comfortable place to stay and I highly recommend this apartment.

We enjoyed our stay in Whistler very much but were disappointed with the rental somewhat. The two king beds in the unit were extremely uncomfortable. It was impossible to get a good night sleep. The location was great but was farther than the 10 minutes walk from the village as advertised. The overall cleanliness of the unit was poor. In the downstairs bathroom around the tub was mold. The coffee table in the living room had a glass top, which under it were crumbs and dirt. It just was not up to par. I'm not sure I would recommend this property to a friend. I would certainly worn them about the beds. As far a Whistler, we had a blast. We enjoyed everything about the village and will return to Whistler soon. (The Keg, Earls, pubs, shopping, escape room, Pure Bread, Starbucks, etc.)
