Whistler Honeymoons

Abundant slopes and a super-long season have helped Whistler rank as one of the top-rated North American ski resorts and have earned it the honor of hosting part of the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games. Rent a slope-side chalet in this skier’s paradise, and you can simply wake up, pop on you skis, and hit the slopes. With roaring fireplaces and skiing from November to August, this easily accessible destination is a great choice for the active and the cuddly

You’ll find exceptional Japanese, French, Italian, Greek and Indian food among the shops of the charming, pedestrian-only Whistler Village. While you’re off the slopes, you can wander the streets for antiquing and art gallery hopping or relaxing treatment at one of several spas.
