Spring Break ski trip
Great location, walk to ski slope, restaurants, shops. Condo was great, fully stocked kitchen, great space to spread out, fireplace, nice grill, private hot tub was an extra bonus! You don’t really need a vehicle because the bus system is great, but the condo does have garage parking if you drive to Whistler. We would stay here again.

Great property, responsive management!
We had a great time at this property. A few minor issues quickly taken care of by the management team. Quick walk on a path to the mountain and very well stocked kitchen (2 rice cookers!) Easy and secure parking + a lovely private hot tub. Would book again once internet issues are fixed.

Early Christmas in Whistler’s benchlands
My family of 6 had a wonderful time at your property, nestled in the trees! It was cozy and quiet, well equipped, with easy access to slopes and shuttle bus. The lack of snow on lower slopes was disappointing, but skiing/boarding was good at higher elevations. Over the years we have enjoyed many Whistler accommodations as Whistler is a favorite destination both winter and summer. We highly recommend this property! Thank you for a memorable visit and for quickly replacing the chirping smoke alarm!

Beautiful townhome - summer stay
We had a great stay at this townhome and in Whistler. It’s very nicely updated and was clean. We loved the view from being up higher on the mountain but it did mean we had to bike up the hill at the end of the day. There is a nice free shuttle bus that can be used instead if desired.

The location for ski in/ski out and shuttle access is what MADE this condo. It’s a short walk to the bus stop that takes you to whatever village you are heading to. Ski out was technically a short walk past the shuttle stop but after that you skied right to the bottom of the blackcomb gondola in blackcomb village. Ski in was right off the mountain and you could technically ski right to the door (pending the amount of snow)! I will say for 7 adults the space was rather small. There is only one bathroom for the upstairs bedroom where 2 people stayed. The second bathroom was shared between 5 adults. The bunk room closest to hot tub had minimal storage and the 3 adults who stayed in that room didn’t have enough room to even open suitcases. The other bunk room closest to the front door had a great closest system that allowed us to unpack. Despite the small space we all agreed we would hands down stay again. Location location location!

Pretty good.
The place is pretty good; The condo is not convenient to ski because it is and the second floor and far from the steps walk a lot with badges and skis. It would be best if you don't walk a lot to get to the mountain, and it is not skiing in and skiing out to us. We arrived never have been to the whistler Village and then called the manager not too helpful in completing it. He said to call a taxi, and the cab doesn't work late. He did explain about taking a bus. Buses work late. The place a pretty good inside and has everything you need complete: the kitchen and the whole area.

Great place
Very clean and updated place making it cozy and comfy. We came up for a work retreat in Oct when it was not busy and no snow around so that was perfect. It's not close to the village so that was nice in the sense we felt like we were away from the "city life" which is exactly what we needed and wanted. To make it even better, it's a corner unit which we liked. One small issue is that it needs a new bbq. One burner wasn't working and the other was barely working. We arrived late and tried to cook steaks on it for a quick dinner which didn't work very well and turned into a much longer process than we had hoped. Other than that, I still have to give this place 5 stars.

Great house but cold and strict management
The house and location were amazing. Nice hot tub and gas fire place. It is not 100% ski in and out but close to the hotel that has the access to the ski lines. However, the management felt cold and completely impersonal. The place is equipped with the very essential but we got run out of coffee and missed some minimum first aif stuff. There were 9 of us but only one parking spot available so we had trouble with the second car, the "host" (manager) wasn't very open to help us with this issue. There was no flexibility at all with check in and out, as usually it is in other vacation stays but in general we had a very nice stay.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review Mari. As you mentioned the condo only comes with 1 parking spot and visitor parking is controlled by the strata with a 2 hour parking limit. You can park a 2nd vehicle on the street from 5pm to 9am Monday to Friday and any time Saturday and Sunday. There lots of pay parking options in Whistler Village if needed. I will pass on your feedback about running out of coffee and a first aid kit to the team. Thanks! Chris - Whistler Wired Vacations

Fantastic for 2 x families; ski right to the front door, super clean and comfy
We loved our star at #16 Mountain Star. We were 2 families, 4 adults and 4 kids (8-12yr olds) and it fit us all in nicely. Kitchen has everything you could think of, fridge is nice and big to accommodate 8 people. Underfloor heating was so nice in the kitchen and bathrooms each morning! Beds super comfy too. Hot tub out back door was a real treat and we certainly used it most days. Location was great for us, nice and quiet, end townhouse, so we could see kids playing out in the snow out the lounge room windows! Literally ski to the back door. Ski out in the morning was easy too, with a short 200m walk down to the side of ski run. Free Bus runs every 10mins into town, or it's a 15 min walk. I don't think we could ask for anything more. Really enjoyed our time here, was sad to leave, and we'd stay here again in a heart beat.

Nice place, quite location
The location is great for winter skiing, but a bit of a hike to get to the village and summer activities. Space is good, however some maintenance required. Most of the outlets in the kitchen were not working despite all of the breakers being on and the complex needs to deal with an ant problem. We killed approximately 30 large ants that seemed to be coming out of the partywalls during our stay.
