Whistler Customer Reviews

We've skied in Whistler once before so knew what to expect. Didn't disappoint. Some great new restaurants since we've last been. Mountain very well run and conditions immense. We also used Extremely Canadian for a steeps clinic to explore some new lines and they were fantastic (if other guests are looking for recommendations). A few big lift queues around new year, but not unexpected for the time of year.

Resort - lots of varied ski-ing no queuing excepted started to get busy around 23rd December we were recommended to leave and spend a few days in Vancouver which was great before going to Sun Peaks. Restaurants needed to be booked in Whistler if you wanted to go to a certain one. Spent a day in Squamish watching the bald headed eagles which was well worth the trip. Only had one "white out" day, then slopes very busy next day with all the fresh powder.

Plenty of activities away from the slopes esp enjoyed zip wiring and snow mobiling. The resort never felt busy even over the Cmas and New Year period. Friendly skiers and staff made it a pleasurable experience even on lifts! Some of the restaurants are overpriced given the quality of food and service - “fine dining” often meant expensive rather than fine! Some restaurants tend to overbook so tables are frequently not available at the times booked.

Whistler is great. Lots of ski runs and although busy at the lifts the slopes during the week we were there were relatively quiet. The restaurants on the mountains can get very busy particularly if the weather is cold but as long as you go outside mealtimes the queues are quite short. We found it best to go out early as by the afternoon a lot of the snow had been pushed around, leaving icy patches.

Whistler is, in our opinion, the best ski resort in the world.
