Sun Peaks Resort Reviews

We just finished a fantastic family ski holiday for the second time at Sun Peaks. Absolutely love the resort, has something for everyone.

Great area . Lots of shops and places to eat .. beautiful views

Enjoy the mtb riding here! Good mix of jumping and tech.

I love this place. A real 4 seasons resort. Biking, skiing, golf, geocaching, hiking, lazing around. Wicked mountain resort.

Amazing place!! Something to do for everyone. Incredible skiing and food.

Great week skiing with amazing snow,fresh almost every morning - but that may be luck. Loved the plates among the trees.

We love this resort! Fabulous snow. No lift lines. I almost don t want to post about it for fear more people will come and it will lose its small feeling...

Awesome place to take the family. Great biking trails but slightly under rated in the difficulty. Blue runs border on black

He resort showed in good form. Was there for a social event and really enjoyed my time there.

Bought hitcase from one of the shops beginning of August. It leaked on first outing despite advertised as good to go up to 30'. Had case returned and was told another was being shipped.

Have repeatedly asked for my money back or my replacement hitcase.

I have neither and since mid-August.................

Nothing but lip service from Sunpeaks.

Bottom line, don't waste your money on the hitcase and certainly wouldn't recommend purchasing from Sunpeaks.

Terrible service (Except the lip service), terrible product, terrible experience.

Great hill. Have to say it is my favorite in BC, but I've only been to 4, but definitely really enjoyed Sun Peaks. Love the layout of the three mountains and how they all come together. Great little village, very friendly and supper easy to get around even on foot. Loved our stay over Christmas this year.,

Loved getting here & we have 5 days more to enjoy wonderful British Columbia hospitality.

We went up to watch the free Bedouin Soundclash concert and it was awesome. All of their free concerts are great and it's cool how they are set up on the mountain for it.

We were there for the 5km foam fest. Everything we did see was immaculate and beautiful

I attended the 5K Foam Fest. It was very well organized and there was plenty of information available and attendees were taken care of appropriately. Prices for the shops were high but that's typical of a resort.

This is a great place to ski; a wide range of terrain options with excellent glade runs to weave through trees.
However, their claim to a the green resort is optimistic at best. Plastic cutlery pervades restaurants across the mountain and in the village. Plastic bags to every customer at the supermarket and straws be default in every drink.
So much more to achieve a green status - get the easy stuff right.

Sun Peaks is a magical place. The small town easily walk-able by foot and great prices for the hotels, this Ski Resort wins my heart without any further due.

Note: most pictures were taken from the top of Sundance Express.

The ski resort and living community here are truly beautiful and unique. It's only a short drive from Kamloops and serves as a wonderful place to take in some fresh air while hiking, boarding, mountain biking, snowshoeing, dog sledding or just shopping and dining.

I'm proud to bring my friends and family here!

Quintessentially Canadian! Lovely affordable getaway, will definately visit in the winter

We took the kids to the tube park. They ranged from 2-10 and they all had a blast! It's an easy carpet ride up and there are 2 tube lanes, one fast and one slower. You can ride down with your small children in your lap or holding onto them in their own tube. The only downside is that it took about 15-20 minutes to get through the line at the top.

Long lines for tubing and food. Half the day wasted.

Mountain downhill go carts are a blast! No motor just gravity propels you .Have to hold a valid driver's license to ride.

I've ran the Spartan best here a few times, so I've only been here towards the end of summer and for a special event, but I love it here!!! The atmosphere is so cold and everyone is so friendly!!! Highly recommended!!!

Lots of fun, and great runs in the mountain. Staff was super friendly & helpful

Hell ya. Sun peaks is amazing. Definitely one of the best ski/snowboarding resort operations in BC. They got you covered no matter what you wanna make you trip out to be. The mountain its self is incredible, offering something for the everyone. From the first day rookie, to the mature blue bird, to the greasiest of park rats and deep power semi-backcountry adventurer you'll find the line that works for you. The snow is pretty much always good. And, even if it hasn't come down for a week, the cold and dryness of the local climate keeps the pow fresh enough for everyone to have a good time. The village has a ton of amazing places to shop, browse or get set up to ride. Pretty much everyone that works in a around Sun Peaks is friendly and cool. The resort staff will go above and beyond to make your experience as best as can be. Honestly, I can't say enough of about this place. And with Whistler/Blackcomb becoming ever more unaffordable, corporate, and elitist Sun Peaks easily steps into the role of being the next best bet for the people.

Mini Whistler. Still need to improve their offerings, especially in the off season (when it's still busy) but great place to visit.

WOW...
The perfect snow that we got there was out of this world!!!
Not the most famous resort but one of the best I have ever been to.

$508 to bike with my son. Add on fees like parking. Really?

Many runs shown on the map only half built. For this price (higher than Whistler!!) the runs should be at least as shown on the map.

Great mountain for biking and skiing. Will be coming back again

Of a beauty, impressive and very rich gastronomy, very luxurious

It was an unforgettable experience and amazing vacation for us.

Love this place! Great for our growing family of four!

@adventurousgm
My first time was a blast! Snowshoeing, snowmobiling and skiing during Christmas 2020.

Lost 5 pairs of skis in snow why TF is there even snow here
Also did a donie in the Nissan cause they can barley salt the roads...

Great service good food friendly and helpful people

Haven't been to too many resorts living in lower mainland. Have been to Whistler in the past. I would say Sunpeaks is way better overall. It's not too busy, better snow (dry), and relatively inexpensive. We stayed at the coast hotel which is right there by the ski hill. Such a convenient location. Food is pricier up there so make sure you bring your own food if you have a kitchen. Restaurants are pretty good also. Great place for the family! It is my kids first time skiing. I've put them in ski school and they had such a wonderful time. We are already talking about making this an annual winter tradition.

Needs more ski in, ski out... Otherwise family fun perfect.

Best experience of my life! Love everything about this place and location!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!!

We couldn't believe how beautiful this little town is even when we arrived late at night. Once it was a morning the town turned to a beautiful dream full of smiling faces. Activities from golfing to horse riding and from mountain biking to trail hiking will keep you out of boredom. Kids also have trampoline-pungie jumping to get their energy out!

Great amenities and staff. BUT I wish there was free breakfast included

Great room nice and generous with lots of charge and power points.

What Sun Peaks means to me? Good time with a good friend in a good place and tons of fun! Love this little mountain village!

Sun Peaks is a great place to do some Alpine hiking in the summer. The chair lift runs from 10:00 to 19:00 and for about $20, you skip the walk up to the alpine meadows. Otherwise, walking from the base, it's 3.4 km long and a 600 metre elevation gain. In the alpine area, the trail's are well marked and well trodden. On the weekends it's rather busy, but once past the first 1.0 km, the trail's branch out and the crowds peter out. The weekend of June 28/29 there were plenty of alpine flowers in bloom, though the best are further out, along the trails to Mt Todd and Todd Lake, both of which make for great hiking destinations to enjoy a picnic or packed lunch. Some of the wildflowers in bloom included paintbrushes, lupines, larkspur, stonecrop, cow parsnip, forget-me-nots, tiger lilies, white and pink heather, asters, and several others. Ample parking was available within a short walk from the visitors centre where one can purchase or pick up tickets although note that there is often a discount for lift tickets purchased online. Also they sell bottled drinks, as hikers will need to bring refreshments with them for their hike. Overall great spot for enjoying alpine meadows in the summer without too much effort.

Great family ski resort with a fabulous Swiss style village. There s also a reason it s called Sun Peaks - it s usually sunny!

Great in the summer, close to driving range and loads of activities in the area

Very nice spot. Reasonably priced for lift tickets and even hotels.

Best place to stay in Sun Peaks, good restaurant, with good food.

Was excellent, staff was happy and the snow was great!

A beautiful day at a beautiful place! Great staff at all the lifts. Awesome job Sun Peaks!

Hidden treasure for snowboarders and skiers alike!

If you re anything like me you love to board but HATE to wait in lines. Sun peaks has sown unbelievable snow and weather but is not even close to as busy as the other resorts throughout Alberta and BC. We will definitely be back again soon.

excellent village and large ski hill with above average snow quality

We are lucky to live 45 minutes away and this is a great family friendly ski resort, with a lot of winter and summer activities.

If I had only one word to describe this place, I would say: Why? Did I come here so late into my life! hAhA I got you didn't I. This place is so awesome, I loved that there was so much powdery snow, not your typical ski resort because most of the snow has a slight yellowish tint, especially around the areas with signs stuck on them. Regardless, I had a fun time keeping myself hydrated with that succulent sweet nectar with a slight hint of ammonia. Cheers!

Beautiful resort. Staff are well trained. Lots of amenities. Great skiing, and amazing late night entertainment. Would definitely recommend.

Just a great, cozy, and personable atmosphere, with plenty to do.

Came down with the Silver Star staff on February 5th and an awesome day was had. It was my first time visiting Sun Peaks and the snow wasn't too bad despite only having a small dusting in the few days prior. We didn't see any sunny peaks as it started dumping mid day! Definitely will come back to check out mountain biking!

Sun Peaks is a wonderful place to hike and see the wildflowers during the summer. The Sunburst chair lift opens at 10:00am and takes you up to an elevation of 1850m. (You can buy a lift pass online). From here, we first took trail 9 to Tod Lake which is a beautiful lunch spot with a view of a small lake. Trail 9 has some elevation mixed with flat parts and views of wildflower meadows. We then did trail 11 and 12 which goes around Mount Tod summit. This is the best trail for wildflowers, every corner gives an even better view than before. It was astounding. Trail 11 and 12 are marked as advanced but it felt accessible if you want some distance and are wearing light trail shoes. On the way down we did trail 10 to 5 then 2. It can get very windy here and a jacket or sweater is helpful. This path is better going down than up. You lose elevation fast and hiking poles would be helpful for your knees. I definitely recommend a visit!

Enough terrain that it never feels busy or crowded, even when the accommodations are fully booked.

Beautiful views, fresh powder at top, plethora of runs, free ski/board waxing, and quick queues. Just wish they were open longer and had night skiing.

Friendly people and alot of things to do we went for the foam run and totally enjoyed our stay will be back again next year for the run!!

No electricity for over 6 hours now: new year's eve 2019. It's poor when a ski resort can't cope when it snows!

Had a great time playing the golf course and doing some downhill mountain biking.

Went to see a free concert! Was great except for the rain!
