Location, location, location. And late check out time to allow for a full day of skiing on departure day. The ski-in/ski-out makes it exceptional! The view out every window, the high ceilings, warm wood and propane fire, the big hot tub with 180% gorgeous view, the comfortable ability to dine and lounge as many as the unit sleeps in beds (so many do not do this), the super comfortable beds with soft, flannel bedding, the kitchen, which is super well equipped for those who love to cook and entertain, the unique floor plan which uses every inch so well, lots of roomy hooks and benches for all your gear right at the door, ski lockers at the ski-in/out right at the chalet, proximity to every activity you could want to do in the snow, and Penticton just down the hill.
