What a great experience! We spent a wonderful week...
What a great experience! We spent a wonderful week at Wintergreen 27 of "The Villas" in the Upper Village of Whistler/Blackcomb in late February/early March 2017.
Clint and Kristy of Acer Vacations were super responsive and helpful from the beginning of the reservation process to our arrival and throughout our stay. We have got all the information we needed right on time, and our questions were answered right away.
The place has a perfect location. It is 2 minutes away (max.) by walk from the free shuttle bus stop. (Bus #5 runs in every 10 minutes during the winter months.) To Blackcomb Base, it is about a 5-minute-ride, and one can add additional 3-5 minutes to get to Whistler Village by the same bus. Though it is not a ski-in/ski-out place, we often skied "home" almost to our door using the trail from Blackcomb base. We often walked the trail to Whistler Village in the evening which is a pleasant 15-minute-walk.
We could conveniently park our car in the underground garage so there was no need to clean/dig out the car from the snow. We did not really use the car during our stay, except when we did the grocery shopping, and when we dined in a restaurant at Creekside. We did it for convenience and saving time. The free shuttle lines serve those locations as well.
The unit we stayed, a 2 bed/2 bath 2-level condo, is pristine: clean, updated, practical, and well equipped. The entry foyer is a great addition to the place where we could store our skies and boots and empty luggage. The kitchen is well equipped with plenty of plates, all kinds of glasses, mugs, silverware, cookware, appliances, etc. One bedroom+bath is on the main floor, while the other bedroom+bath is on the upper level, which provides complete privacy. The beds/mattresses are very comfy. The bathrooms are also updated, clean and well equipped/stocked. There is also a washer/drier combo in the bathroom on the main level. The living room/dining room area is cozy with good quality and comfy furniture, an easy-to-use fireplace, and a large flat screen TV. The free WiFi worked with no issues.
I recommend the place with no reservations. We would definitely stay there again.
