Our dream wintertime playground, The Fairmont Chateau Whistler is a family favorite. As soon as the powder settles in, we head for this castle-like setting at the base of Blackcomb and Whistler Mountains. After a day on the slopes, we can sink into the eucalyptus steam room at the spa before deciding where to dine - perhaps on-site at The Wildflower, where local cuisine is complemented by more than 250 vintages of wine. When the snow thaws, we're back for award-winning golf and the David Leadbetter Golf Academy. We always stay on the Fairmont Gold Floor, the ultimate in concierge-level comfort.

The Fairmont Chateau Whistler opened in 1989 and is the largest resort constructed in Canada since the turn of the century. It is situated at the base of breathtaking Blackcomb Mountain.

This "resort within a resort" has its own golf course, tennis courts and full health club and spa - just steps away from Whistler Village.
