1. -Owner available 24/7. Owner-managed. Any urgent matters quickly addressed. The front desk is also open 24/7 (& they sell frozen pizzas! :) )
2. -Reviews. All 178 reviews are authentic and maintaining a perfect 10/10! Such a high count number maintaining the highest possible rating is extremely rare and we are proud that our continued hard work, attention to detail, outstanding cleaning company and regular upgrades have helped us maintain our wonderful rating.
3. -Penthouse. Ours is the largest 1-bedroom in the Aspens and 1 of only 2 units with vaulted ceilings. This helps to create a very comfortable large space. Further, the living area is adjacent to a fire escape stairwell (never used). This means not only an excellent location in case of emergency, but also means no noise from other units and so the entertainment unit including sound system bothers no one either! Hundreds of rentals and ZERO noise complaints! The existence of the fire escape next door also explains why our unit is so large and at 700sq ft, is much closer in size to a 2 bedroom (785) than the typical 1-bdrm (576). It also means a very large bedroom and a living room larger than almost all of the 2 bedroom units.
4. -Furnishings. Size is great 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. Cue the high quality king bed and sofa beds (all with memory foam because when you play hard you need to sleep well!), a kitchen fit for a chef!, floor to ceiling tile in the bathroom, heated floors, high quality carpeting, GearDryer*, 2 smart TVs, stainless bbq... the list goes on.
*NEW GEARDRYER!! Dec., 2024 (designed in Utah BY outdoor enthusiasts FOR outdoor enthusiasts!). Perfect for your ski, board and biking gear! It goes hand-in-hand with an extra large Whistler-Blackcomb mountain map towel to wipe down your gear!
5. -RENOVATION! Nov./Dec., 2024 including new entrance remodel, installation of high quality carpeting and painting throughout.
Our suite is meticulous. It is very highly equipped offering all the comforts of home. You will want for nothing! Nuestra casa es tu casa!!

In closing it is easy for owners to overstate their space. But if they do they will not maintain such high ratings over such a long period of time *8yrs....! We prefer to encourage all prospective guests to read our fantastic reviews. Nowhere will you find disappointment or any questions as to the great value our Penthouse offers. It delivers. Many thanks for your interest!

-LOCATION! LOCATION!, LOCATION!!
The Aspens is one of if not the very best locations in Whistler. One of the only true ski in ski outs in Whistler, The Aspens holds the title as closest ski out in the Upper Village to the Blackcomb Gondola. From the time you take your skis/boards off at the hot tub gate, to the time you're inside our penthouse is as short as 2 minutes. That beats The Fairmont by a few minutes and the Four Season by an additional several. Guests at either of our world famous neighbors cannot "ski out".
