Understanding nightly rental properties in Whistler

Some of the more popular forms of property ownership in Whistler allow for owner use coupled with nightly rental income. The Resort Municipality of Whistler (RMOW) has set out specific areas in the resort for these properties, and set out specific areas in other parts of the resort for residential-only use. It’s important to understand that not all properties in Whistler are eligible to be rented out nightly.

By designating some areas for nightly rental and some areas for residential, the RMOW ensures the resort has enough nightly bed units to satisfy the needs of guests visiting the resort for short term stays, while retaining the residential and family feel of the surrounding subdivisions. Furthermore, by having areas in the valley that are only designated for residential use, Whistler guarantees seasonal and long-term rental residents a place to live.

Most of the legal nightly rental properties are located in the main Whistler Village, Village North and the Benchlands on Blackcomb. Whistler Creekside also has limited nightly rental condos and townhomes.

Nightly rental properties can be divided into two main categories: Phase I Condos, Phase I Townhouses and Phase II Hotel Condos.
