Four Seasons Resort and Residences Whistler

Burrowes Huggins' 273-key Blackcomb Mountain base property opened 2004 with Brayton & Hughes interiors — every guest room has a gas-burning fireplace, a 23-metre heated outdoor pool runs year-round, and the spa's 13 rooms work the eucalyptus-steam / cedar-sauna / outdoor-whirlpool circuit. SIDECUT Steakhouse under Shiv Kappal anchors the dining; The Library by The Macallan keeps the whisky list. Minutes from the lifts.
