We have just returned from a fantastic family holiday in Whistler with our 3 young children.
The resort was it''s usual easy,convenient, friendly self with heaps of atmosphere and all the fanfare of the paralympics.
Whilst the snow quality may not always be top notch in Whistler it is so easy for a young family with loads of amenites, walking distance from lifts and 2 hour proximty from Vancouver airport where one can fly direct in 14 hours.
We were very happy with the Tantalus Lodge -it is more budget style but we were happy to save on accomodation given we would not be spending a great deal of time in our rooms. The staff were very accomodating and helpful, the hot-tub and pool was great and although the rooms were a little dated, they were a good size. The shuttle service was excellent to transport us to and from the base of the lifts each day which would be about a 500m walk. - We would certainly have no problem staying there again.
For a young family Whistler is awesome thats why we keep going back!
