We love our home away from home Whistler Penthouse. And judging by our perfect record now at 188 10/10 and counting on Expedia/VRBO, It shows. We are quite proud to maintain such a high level of consistency over 9 years of hosting.
We use our place often and we want all the comforts and quality of home with us in our Whistler penthouse. As result our guests also enjoy all those little extras that elevate a condo from a mere vacation property to a true home away from home! The bar is set very high and we invite you to also set your expectations very high with confidence. We also invite you to please read our reviews where many have labelled our penthouse "best in the Aspens". If you simply want it ALL and nothing but the best will do then our place will fill your check list!
The formula: Give the people what they want! :
-Super clean, super comfortable and Exceptionally well equipped!
1. -Owner available 24/7. Owner-managed. Any urgent matters quickly addressed. The front desk is also open 24/7 (& they sell frozen pizzas! And a host of other sundries. :) )
2. -Penthouse. Ours is the largest 1-bedroom in the Aspens. Our unique large space allows for 2 sofa beds in the living room. With plenty of room leftover. The queen and double sofa beds are the highest quality and with upgraded memory foam mattresses. In the bedroom a luxurious 16" pillow top memory foam King. (You will read a lot of raving reviews on the king bed as well).
3. -Furnishings. Size is fantastic and you will love how spacious the penthouse is however a condo is not "luxury" unless the furnishings and outfitting are also of the highest quality and the unit is upkept to the highest possible standards. To that end the kitchen is very fully outfitted, the bathroom is floor to ceiling tile (with heated floor) and with thermostatic shower. GearDryer, work/office desk, high quality carpeting, GearDryer*, 2 smart TVs, Wii, games, DVD and 100+movies, high quality stainless bbq... the list goes on.
4. -RENOVATION! Nov./Dec., 2024 including new entrance remodel, installation of high quality carpeting and painting throughout.
