Why We Love Our Big White Condos
For the last 30+ years we have traveled all over North America and stayed at many properties at the leading ski areas. We have learned from our varied experiences what we like!
SHORT GROUND TRAVEL Big White is less than an hour drive from Kelowna International Airport with direct and commuter flights from all over Canada, the US and abroad. There are many convenient options to travel from the airport to the hill.
SPECTACULAR VIEWS Our 4 Bedroom Condo on the third floor of Plaza On The Ridge has one of the best views of the valley and the Monashee range to the south. The 134 Whitefoot two bedroom unit has a great view of the action in the Central Village and easy accessibility to the village amenities.
SKI-IN, SKI-OUT Plaza on the Ridge and Whitefoot are true ski-in, ski-out accommodations. At Plaza its through the underground parking garage, to the ski lockers and out the door to Perfection Run. Ski down to either the Ridge Rocket or the Snow Ghost high speed lifts and do a couple laps while you wait for the rest of your group. From Whitefoot its just down the convenient elevator to the locker, out the front door and right to Hummingbird to the Ridge or left to the Bullet. If you are joining the Snow Hosts or Ski School the meeting point is right outside the door.
GREAT SPACES The Plaza unit has a large living area (with the view) divided from the sleeping area of the condo as well as from the den where the kids can go play foosball or watch a movie. That means that the adults can have some fun in peace and that night hawks will not disturb those that require more rest. The 134 Whitefoot unit also has a great room separated from the two bedrooms which have lots of privacy from each other. 132 Whitefoot is an all-in -one space that functions as bed/sitting room with a kitchenette.
CLOSE TO IT ALL The Plaza is located right on the edge of the Big White village with an easy walk from the condo to the Market, the Restaurants, the Bars and the Central Lodge for ski passes and the many free family activities held weekly by the resort! The Whitefoot Lodge is in the centre of the village and literally steps from everything. You can even get to the store and back in your bedroom slippers.
