WHISTLER ACCOMMODATIONS
Whistler Accommodations
Homestay
Homestay students are placed with carefully selected Canadian families that offer a secure and friendly environment. Students are provided with a private bedroom, bathroom facilities, meals and contact with English speaking Canadians every day. The host family provides basic information on how to function in Canada such as: how to use the bus system to go to and from school, where to shop, and how to get to the local library, bank, recreation centre and pharmacy. As Whistler is such a popular ski resort with more hotels than homes, the number of available host families in Whistler is limited Therefore, students will be assigned to single or double room accommodation on a first-come-first-served basis and may be advised that for the dates they have selected, their first choice (single or double) is not available. Tamwood will attempt to match students who request double room accommodation, but it may be that in some weeks there is no match in which case the student will have to pay for a single room.
Hotels
Although Tamwood recommends Homestay accommodation to students wanting to enjoy the full Canadian cultural experience, Whistler has many other options for accommodation. Students who are interested in hotel, hostel or B&B accommodation can contact Tamwood for list of these other accommodation options, which can be quite expensive in the high season (December to May).
