"Poolside Retreat" at Grande Rockies Resort

Summary:
Fabulous resort w/ pool/hot tub! Professionally managed affordable unit in a resort with great amenities - this condo offers visitors a cozy romantic stay, and the perfect base to explore the Canadian Rockies. Boasts a newly renovated bathroom with walk-in shower. Brew some freshly roasted local coffee, take a dip, or relax by the fireplace. 15 minutes from Banff, surrounded by restaurants and cafes, and only a 10-minute walk to downtown Canmore.

The Space:
Approximately one hour from Calgary, this home away from home comes with a fully equipped kitchen and a lovely covered patio and seating to enjoy a glass of wine or early morning coffee, and enjoy the mountain air. Wood floors, granite countertops, gas fireplace and high end furnishings complete the luxury feeling. The bed and bath linens are 5-star hotel quality, and professionally laundered. The bathroom is newly renovated with a lovely walk in shower. The sofa bed has a brand new mattress and will accommodate 1 adult or 2 smaller humans!

We love where we live, and we love to share it with guests, so when you stay with us we welcome you properly, with added touches such as freshly roasted local coffee and locally made, 100% natural Rocky Mountain Soap bath and body products. The entire apartment is kept clean using only eco-friendly cleaning products (no nasty chemicals here!).

The apartment is best suited for couples, but there is extra accommodation for 1-2 in the comfy sofa bed if you need it. Building amenities include a pool, waterslide and hot tubs to relax in after a day of adventure, and if you want to work off dinner, there is a small but functional gym on the same floor. If you don't fancy cooking there's a restaurant on site (it's not amazing, but it is ok), and a couple more within a 5 minute walk.

Our summer calendar fills fast so we recommend you book early or send us a message if you have any unanswered questions. If you are traveling on a budget, we are always ready to strike a deal in the quiet season! Our goal is to provide a great mountain experience for great people, so get in touch if you’d like to discuss details of your holiday with us direct.

Guest Access:
You may access all areas of the building - pool, hot tub, lounge and restaurant. The only place off-limits is the front desk, as this is for hotel guests only.

The Neighborhood:
Located just off the Trans-Canada Highway, and a short walk to downtown. The local bus is nearby, and there's a bus to Banff and Calgary close by. If you come by airport shuttle the stop is a couple of minutes up the road. This is a legal, licensed condo, so your booking is assured.

Getting Around:
Canmore is small and easy to get around on foot, by car or by public transit. There is public transportation around Canmore, and to/from Banff. Canmore Roam transit is free to use, and connects to the Banff and Lake Louise Roam service.

Other Things to Note:
The Town of Canmore is completing an upgrade to water/sewer lines and installing cycle and pedestrian pathways along Bow Valley Trail from early March. Some disruption to traffic is expected, and occasional disruptions to water (notified in advance). There is no ETA for the completion of work but it should be done by early summer 2024

Interaction with Guests:
We are professional vacation managers who live in town and will happily offer as much or as little support as you need during your stay. Talk to us for advice on hiking, biking, skiing, restaurants etc. If you need specific equipment for your stay that you don't want to buy, get in touch and we'll see if we can help.
