Highlights

Location: Nestled in the stunning Canadian Rockies

Accommodations: Condos and private chalets available

Amenities: Heated outdoor pool and waterslide

Family Features: Dedicated children's play areas

“From what I've gathered, this place pitches itself squarely at families, particularly those with younger children who'll find a lot to love in the pool area and play center. Condos and chalets have full kitchens and separate living spaces, essential for longer stays with kids. The location is removed enough to feel quiet, yet the free bus passes make getting into Banff itself a breeze.”
