GABLES - Quiet village location, close to lifts

Great condo. Very comfortable. Great location. A big thanks to the custodian who kept on top of clearing snow from the sidewalks and parking lot! Highly recommend this unit!

Weve stayed in a lot of complexes in Whistler and this is now our favourite in terms of location and space! We will hopefully have another opportunity to stay here!

The Gables is a great location. Only about 300 metres to the Blackcomb gondola. It would be great if this was our hidden gem.

We were surprised there weren't any Christmas decorations in the condo.

Unit is a lot closer to lifts than most properties in Whistler village. Exceptionally quiet. Short and scenic walk to the village for restaurants, bars, etc. Clean with a well stocked kitchen. A common use hot tub would be nice for acres ski but not necessary

Great location, clean, free parking, comfortable bed, good internet, good HD TV and good appliances. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend to friends.

Very quiet , relaxing stay. Loved it.

Great stay in Whistler. The property was very well maintained and accurately presented in the photos and description. Thank you, we would stay here again.

Loved the 4 days we stayed at the Gables, fantastic location. The suite is dated, but everything was functional with a very comfortable bed and hide-a-bed. Very spacious! 5 minutes from both Whistler village and the upper village was ideal for us and while we were off a busier road, never once did we hear traffic.

We enjoyed our weekend in this cozy comfortable unit. Very clean, well equipped and quiet. Location was excellent and we enjoyed the short walk through the trees and over the pretty walking bridge into the village. Furniture and carpets have been updated since photos were last posted. Easy, accessible parking.

We always enjoy staying at the Gables. Enjoy the quiet and location. Find it very relaxing.

Very comfortable and quiet place to stay. Only few minutes walk to the Village Center.

We have stayed in several units in this property as you cannot beat the location! So close to Blackcomb and Whistler lifts! Lovely large condo. Perfect for our family.

It's 3-5 minute walk from Blackcomb base. We got this literally at the same price as a ski in and out condo at Blackcomb. Only this condo has a bigger living area space. There were instructions to the condo although we needed to clarify the parking situation and housekeeping with the owners.

The condo was clean. Well equipped. As mentioned by other reviewers some of the kitchen and bathroom amenities were starting to look dated. But everything worked. We didn't try the hot tub function of the bath.

There was a log fire which came with 2 complimentary logs. To be honest it didn't really produce much heat and the central heating was more than able to heat up the place! We are reasonably happy with our stay. One thing we were caught out with is with the concierge. We didn't drive to Whistler (took the coach) and assumed we could leave luggage before the check in time of 4pm and booked to ski. Unfortunately the concierge has not been paid to handle luggage so we had to deposit our luggage at the UPS store which is 15 mins walk away. There is a surprising lack of venue to store luggage in Whistler, but regardless it should be made clear to people looking to stay here that leave luggage is not possible.

Great location and well maintained property.

Fantastic Location. Condo is very comfortable. Great accommodation for any couple.

We had a wonderful time staying at Alex and Martha's property. The check-in was seamless, thank you for the welcome gift. The living room and bedroom have seen some nice upgrades from the pictures in the listing as well. Another nice touch was two fire logs to use in the real fireplace (this is a big deal to me as I love real fires.) This unit is located right on the walkway between the main village and the upper village, which makes it a great location.

Would absolutely recommend and would stay here again.

I would like to say thankyou and in two years perhaps rent for the similar time. Everything was perfect...except the jacuzzi tub had black floaters 1st and 2nd time. There's also a bit of black mildew around the north side of tub. Otherwise perfect. Thankyou again.

We loved the location! Great, quiet, practical place; clean and cosy. Quick response from concierge and owner when needed. Would definitley stay there again!

Whistler Blackcomb is great in Winter and even more spectacular in summer. The Gables is the perfect place to stay to enjoy everything on offer at Whistler Blackcomb. It is located within walking distance of the Village and a very short walk to the lifts on either mountain. The apartment was clean and very comfortable. My wife and I really enjoyed our stay.

We had a great time in Whistler and enjoyed The Young's condo. Thanks again, Alex.

Nice and easy to access close by to Blackcomb gondola. Other comments: Bedding sheet/Bath towels kind of overused; Wifi Connection is not stable.

Really enjoyed this condo. The location is fantastic! So easy to walk to both Whistler and Blackcomb base. No need to take the shuttle to the lifts.

The condo was clean and spacious. The kitchen and bathroom were stocked with everything we needed. The television is a flatscreen and is much newer than the one pictured.

I would absolutely stay in this condo again.

We had a great stay. The condo is as described, clean and neat. Very comfortable supportive bed and enjoyed the wood burning fire place. Fire logs were supplied as well. Cozy and in a very convenient location. Outside parking and the short stairway to the garage and right to the underground parking spot. Gables is about 5 min walk to either blackcomb or whistler base, so very nice.

Owner and representative were very responsive. Complimentary concierge service also included to help arrange activities and dining as needed. Will for sure stay again in future.

Hello Alex and Martha.
The stay was awesome. We will definitely rent again from you. Only issue we had was the television in the bedroom is screwed to a small table which made it hard to watch tv in bed which is nice and cozy. I recommend mounting or screwing it to larger dresser up high so easy to see. Hopefully we will visit again this summer. Thanks so much for your use of the unit

Yet another successful trip to Whistler. The Gables are fantastic and Alex and Martha's condo is very welcoming. Such easy access to the slopes and Whistler / Backcomb base makes this a winner.

This condo is well maintained and stocked. Great location and quiet area. I have stayed in this unit before and you can tell the owners take care of it. New carpet was nice to see. The bed is very comfortable as well. Condo was very clean. I like having a parking space in the garage as well. I will definitely be back.

A great apartment in a fantastic location very close to new Blackcomb gondola and an easy walk to Whistler base and all shops. Kitchen has great setup with enough pots pans utensils etc for 4. Ski waxing iron rags and tarp provided. Decor is a little dated. Great value, big enough for 4 with the sofa bed and surprisingly spacious for the price. Recommended.

Everything about this condo is amazing. The interior is spotless and the description is perfect. The location could not be better. Shirley who was our Conceierge, contacted me on paying the final balance and helped arrange lift passes, ski school and the transfer from the airport. Nothing was too much trouble.

The residents in the other condos were also very friendly and the snow is cleared from the road down to the condo and the surrounding paths daily. The condo was cleaned half way through out stay and towels changed etc which was unexpected.

We had a fantastic time staying here and would 100 percent book again if we return to Whistlerblackcomb.

Great condo! Excellent location. Well-equipped kitchen. Everything well marked in the kitchen. So quiet - loved it! You can walk to the Village. Thank you for sharing your condo -we loved it!

I stayed in this one bedroom condo for 4 nights, as my 7 yr. old grand daughter was attending a four day ski camp. I really enjoyed my stay. The apartment is in a really quiet location, so we were both able to sleep well, the kitchen had all the equipment that we needed, and it was a 3 minute drive to the Base II meeting place. I hope that we can stay there again next year as her skiing develops.

I've booked a bunch of places off of Allura and really like the location of the Gables. This unit is great in the summer because it stays cool. All appliances work, WiFi is fast, and price was right. Thanks. Hope to stay here again.

We absolutly loved the gables. We have spent alot of time in whistler and the gables is definatly our favorite spot. Its tempting to keep it a secret. We spend at least a month a year in whistler and if the gables is available it will be on the top of our list.

Perfect location for quick access to both Whistler and Blackcomb bases. Quiet at night and comfortable accommodation. I would definitely stay here again

The owners Alex and Martha were very responsive to any inquiries we had, everything was as described, and the accommodations were warm and cozy. We felt very comfortable, right at home, and quite enjoyed our stay.

This was a great and very comfortable accomadation. I would defiantly book again. Location is perfect. Value was great. Thanks for sharing your space with us:)

Was everything we were looking for that weekend! Will book again!

Accommodation was clean , comfortable and ideally situated . Thoroughly enjoyed our stay .

Best location in Whistler, comfortable apartment! Highly recommended!

great place for going to whistler and Blackcomb,

Excellent location and excellent apartment. So easy to get to everything and very comfortable with a fully stocked kitchen. I would certainly return in the future. Many thanks. Cliff

This is a fantastic property. It's well located half way between Whistler and Blackcomb mountains. It's only a few minutes walk to either mountain. We love it because we don't have to hire a car (we come from Australia) and can walk to the village to shop or eat out. The bottom floor location means there are no steps to climb in ski boots and carrying skis at the end of the day.

The accommodation is well set out with a full well equipped kitchen and a dining table and chairs. The bed is very comfortable and there is storage space in the wardrobe for big international travel bags. We also loved the storage for skis, parkas and boots right next to the front door. This is our second stay at this property and it won't be our last.

Stayed for 3 weeks. More than met our needs. Very comfortable, warm and spacious condo in a top location about 100m from Blackcomb base. Location very quiet in a wooded setting a short walk from Whistler village. We would stay here again in a future visit.

Location of the property was ideal - just a short walk to the ski lifts and a festive stroll to the village. Wood burning fireplace and two pesto logs was a nice feature to have. Bed is bedroom was very comfortable. Sofa bed for our adult son wasn't very comfortable but the sofa cushions for our adult daughter made a comfortable single bed. Kitchen was well stocked with the appropriate small appliances and pot & pans. Kitchen could use some paper towels, salt and pepper and some better smaller knives.

We also could of used washable placemats for the dinning room table. We felt bad putting our plates and glasses directly on the table. Could not find any soap for the dishwasher - so had to hand wash all the dishes.

All in all - we had a great stay and would consider renting this unit again.

A few suggestions: 1. Upgrade internet speed. 2. Leave dishwasher soap and salt&pepper (at a minimum) 3. Consider replacing bathroom basin (severely cracked)

All will add materially to the guest experience.

Always a joy to stay at the Gables during our summer bike vacation. Great communications via email and lovely surroundings near trails. We've stayed at other condos in the area, but always come back to the Gables. recommended.

We've stayed in this complex a couple of other times also. We like the quietness of the area while still having good access to what Whistler has to offer.

This unit seems to be typical of what you get while staying here. It's not super a plush luxury hotel, but it's not meant to be. The positives, like I mentioned are the quietness, easy walking access to anywhere, and also the roominess of the units. Another of the pluses is the mud room at the entrance to leave your toys and any outdoor clothing or equipment that you may have.

The one complaint that I had with this unit is that it wasn't the cleanest unit we have stayed in. In particular, the kitchen utensils, pots and pans didn't seem to be washed very well. We ended up washing everything that we wanted to use before using them. We didn't even attempt to use the coffee maker, as it was much to filthy, though there is a Keurig one if you want to buy those packets.

Overall the unit was what we expected, very comfortable and spacious, ground floor ease of entry, and good value for your money.

I am always reluctant to write a review for the Gables as I like to keep it a secret. We have stayed in many condos in this complex over the years and they have all been nice. Some are more updated than others, but all offer the quiet complex, garbage hut, parking, kitchens, laundry and awesome location.

We enjoyed our stay in #2*, the owners were accommodating to our needs and date changes. The condo could use some updating and a really deep clean for those guests that are fussier than me. We would stay here again.

Good location between Whistler village and Blackcomb. The condo is a good size but needs some upgrading, especially in bathroom. Secure underground parking close to condo is a nice bonus.

The condo is fine for what we needed but that bathroom is ready for an overhaul. Next time we need a place to stay in Whistler I'd only stay here if there were no better options at this price point.

We really enjoyed our mountain bike weekend here. Our priorities were having a kitchen, laundry, wifi, and secure parking. The kitchen was well stocked, en-suite laundry was great, the wifi kept us connected and the underground parking was perfect! We were so close to the lifts and village that we didn't have to drive at all during our stay.

There were lots of extra blankets and pillows which I appreciate for curling up after a long day of riding. As noted in another review the bathroom sink is worn, but everything we needed or wanted worked well (I even found a really sharp kitchen knife for chopping vegetables!)

This property met all our needs very well and we would definitely stay again and recommend it to others.

For two people this accommodation was perfect. It was spacious and the weather was warm enough to sit on the lovely verandah some afternoons. Plenty of storage for clothes, skis and ski clothing. The kitchen was well set out with many cooking utensils and heaps of cutlery and crockery. We were able to have friends for dinner with ease.

We had a mid stay clean and the cleaners were friendly and helpful. They cleaned around us as we had come back early that day. The Gables location midway between Whistler and Blackcomb is excellent. Easy walk to town for supplies.

We would thoroughly recommend this accommodation.

Great location near Backcomb lifts. Large ground level unit with parking. Kitchen is well equipped with everything you need. My only comment would be the bathroom needs updating. Overall, a comfortable place to stay close to Backcomb lifts.

I am thinking to rent the apartment again, next year.

We loved staying at The Gables and would definitely recommend it. The unit was very homely, clean and in a fantastic location. The hosts were very efficient and helpful with all communication and we were sad to leave!

This is a spacious one bedroom property in a top location. The area is generally very quiet but close to lifts, villages and transport. The apartment was well supplied with all necessary equipment and included complimentary fire logs. We would give five stars for all categories but the apartment is tired and in need of maintenance.

Having stayed in Whistler a total of 22 weeks in the last 10 years (including other Gables properties) we feel we have experienced a good range of accommodation. The apartment is generally clean but the large artificial plants are laden with dust. The bed was so soft that I kept rolling into my husband all night. After two nights of no sleep I went to the sofa bed. Several light bulbs weren't working, the latch on the door to the wet room wouldn't close. The bathroom basin was cracked and the bath (the spa didn't work) has lost its enamel finish which makes cleaning hard.

We did enjoy our stay and left the apartment as we found it. We still recommend this place and hope the owners accept these points as it is obviously an excellent investment.
