Just because Whistler is the premier ski/snowboard destination in all of North America doesn't mean it can't be an inexpensive experience. A cheap vacation to Whistler is not only entirely possible, but strongly encouraged. Whistler on a budget means you can still enjoy everything the mountain and village have to offer without breaking the bank. Located about two hours from Vancouver in British Colombia, Canada, Whistler offers the perfect destination for a brilliant winter vacation. Check out the following recommendations for a cheap, yet perfect time in Whistler.
A fantastic lodging choice for a cheap vacation to Whistler is the Alpenglow Whistler suites. Picturesquely located in Village North, this primely situated housing option is close to everything in the area you could possibly want. Forget your car, because the ski lifts, food, shopping, and a spectacular nightlife are all within a five minute walk. No one would blame you for not wanting to leave Alpenglow Whistler either. There are a plethora of free amenities just waiting to be taken advantage of. Relax while dissolving the aches from a day on the slopes in the pool, hot tub, sauna, or all three! Would you rather start your day of riding on Blackcomb? Grab the free shuttle that has a pick-up just outside. Oh, and don't forget to grab the special discounted lift tickets, exclusively for guests of the Alpenglow Whistler Hotel.
One of the best things about Whistler on a budget is that you can get your entertainment for the evening at no cost! Choose from watching professionals compete on the hill, listening to live music, or check out the "Fire and Ice" show every Sunday night. There are also photo/film showcases to investigate as well as plenty of nightclubs with no cover to get your night started. So whether you're tearing up the mountain, recovering in the hot tub, relaxing in your room, or exploring the nightlife, you can be sure that while you are indeed at one of the most epic ski resorts in the world, you can still enjoy a cheap vacation to Whistler.
