SCOUT REVIEW
Perhaps more than any other ski resort, Whistler embraces the word ‘play’. Be it summer or winter, day or night, this place is all about enjoying yourself and living life to the full. If this sounds like you, then The Adara Hotel is the perfect choice.
Catering specifically to a younger crowd (and the young-at-heart), this hotel has been decorated in a fun, boutique style. It makes quite a change to the ‘alpine lodge’ look it used to sport several years ago, before it was renovated. These days, instead of leather armchairs you’ll see bright red modular couches, and instead of stuffed deer heads on the walls you’ll see stylized red laminate deer sculptures – putting a quirky twist on the old cliché.
As far as location goes, The Adara is right in the heart of Whistler Village – super close to the slopes and within walking distance of all the best restaurants and bars. But be warned: the location also makes it noisy. The first sign that you’re in for a potentially rough night are the earplugs and the white noise machines beside the bed. The second is the unmistakable thump of a nightclub downstairs. If you’re a light sleeper you should definitely request a quieter room when making your booking. And if you think the noise might be a serious problem, you should probably stay somewhere else.
Despite the lure of sumptuous designer furniture, this hotel is not the ideal destination for a peaceful romantic escape. Instead, it would be better suited to groups of friends who are more likely to want to spend time in the nightclub downstairs than in the bedrooms above.
Scout loves the loft rooms, and with the sleeper sofas they will comfortably sleep four people (although they are true lofts, which means that the upstairs rooms are small and can only be accessed from below).
All up, if you’re in Whistler to ski all day and party all night, The Adara Hotel is for you. But if it’s a good night’s sleep you need, we suggest looking further afield.
Who should stay here
The Adara would suit young groups of friends who are in Whistler to ski hard and party harder.
Located right on the Village Stroll, Adara is centrally located – just a minute’s walk to the base of Whistler and Blackcomb mountains. It’s also close to all of the restaurants, shops and bars in Whistler Village.
About Whistler
Whistler is spectacular in many ways. Whether it’s the two gigantic mountains delivering more than 8000ac (3237ha) of skiing, the jaw-dropping scenery, a village life that puts most major cities to shame or terrain that is steep enough to give even the most extreme skiers an adrenaline rush, you will never be short of being amazed at Whistler. Long the favorite of skiers everywhere, Whistler became even more famous when it hosted the 2010 Winter Olympics and showed itself off to the world. Whether you’re a family of beginners or training to be an instructor, anyone will have a blast at Whistler.

Scout Booking Terms & Conditions
- Availability: Booking of all packages & accommodation is subject to availability at time of confirmation of package option by customer.
- Rate includes: All associated taxes. Some hotels charge extra fees for parking, cots, rollaways etc. Such fees can be confirmed on request based on your requirements.
- Payment Schedule:
- Deposit: 25% of the full amount is due WITHIN 7 DAYS OF CONFIRMATION to secure the booking.
- Final Balance: Invoice will be issued for the remaining balance 80 days prior to departure. PAYMENT IS DUE 70 DAYS PRIOR to departure. Failure to pay by 70 days may result in the auto-cancellation of accommodation by the accommodation provider or late payment fees.
- Bookings within 70 days: Full payment is required within 7 days to secure the booking.
- Variations: In some circumstances suppliers may have different payment policies to the above. Additionally some Early Bird deals require full payment by or soon after the book-by date. In these instances Scout will clearly communicate any variances prior to confirmation.
- Cancellation Policy:
- All deposits are non-refundable once received.
- For balance payments made within 70-45 days prior to the trip the deposit amount is non-refundable.
- No refund for total amount for cancellations 45 days or less prior to arrival and no-shows. In unexpected, unfortunate circumstances (family death etc) Scout will work to negotiate with the supplier for a full or partial refund, however this is not guaranteed. We recommend taking travel insurance to make sure you are covered. Cancelling due to weather, missed travel connections or lack of snow is not considered an unexpected circumstance and is one of the risks you must wear as part of taking a ski trip. Unless the supplier has a snow guarantee or weather cancellation policy, Scout will not refund any part of the package due to these factors.
- Variations: Please note that some hotels may have stricter policies (such as no refund within 60 days) and we are required to pass on these policies. We will communicate any varations to the above cancellation policy prior to confirmation of booking.
- Changes Policy:
- Once bookings are confirmed and deposit is paid service fees will apply for every amendment to existing elements, late final payment and travel document re-issue in addition to fees charged by suppliers
- In a few instances we purchase products through third party providers. If you change part of your package whilst at a destination, the 3rd party provider may have a different refund policy to that of the supplier in the destination. Wherever possible we will work to recover any refunds that come from a change at the destination, however we cannot guarantee it.
- Surcharges: Scout does not charge any additional fees for the booking. Prices quoted are for cash (bank transfer) payments only. Credit card payments (Visa or Mastercard only) will be subject to 1.8% surcharge.
- Booking Currency: Scout will quote and charge in one currency of your choice from AUD, USD, CAD, JPY, EUR or GBP only.
- Currency Exchange Policy: If you book an international destination all amounts quoted are subject to change (based on currency fluctuations) until the final payment has been processed. This can go either way (if your currency gets stronger you will be invoiced less!). We will confirm at the time of invoice what the final amount is, based on the exchange rate at that time. Should you wish to pay the balance earlier (prior to when it’s actually due) to secure that current exchange rate you are welcome to request the final invoice at any time. Once payments have been made (deposit or final balance), no refunds will be given for changes in the amount of what that payment would be, based on currency changes at any time prior to your trip.
- Travel Insurance: Once your booking is confirmed, we strongly recommend taking out travel insurance as it will often cover the cost of cancelled reservations.
