Joined some friends at this resort in a 3 bedroom suite. Very spacious. Great open concept kitchen& living space with a fireplace. Very comfortable beds. Has underground parking. Hot tub was quite large but all indoor. Did not make use of the spa.

Our 3 bedrooms are fantastic for retreats and family stays as the 1341 square foot room leaves lots of space for everyone to enjoy together or “retreat” away to the private bedrooms. We would...

High end appliances. It is very family oriented, with a separated spray play area in the pool room, along with full kitchen and bbq on balcony. The front... More

Nice overall stay but some rough edges. We rented a 2 bedroom suite for 1 week of cross country skiing in the area. The unit is billed as luxury and it is well designed. Bedrooms are large, beds are comfortable (if the pillows a bit too full for me) bathrooms are spacious and OK, nice living room, hot tub in... More

Stayed at Solara with my husband and four other friends. We booked the Solara last minute through their front desk and got a great rate - better than online and better than through their reservations system. We booked the two bedroom and it was a fantastic suite. Two bathrooms with a pull out double sofa in the living room. All... More

We stayed at Solara on Feb 8/13 for a few nights, and loved how amazing the resort looked and how beautifully appointed the condos were. Everything was perfect, until we were awoken at 7am by the sounds of metal garbage bins being dragged across the parking lot by Solara staff. The banging and clanging began at 7am (no idea why...

After a glowing recommendation from friends, we booked three nights in the largest suite at the Solara for a "mini family vacation". The 1800 sq ft, three bedrooms & queen sofa bed provided plenty of room for 7 adults and 2 babies. Being able to fit a playpen in the walk-in closet of the master suite was a fun bonus.... More

The room was lovely with plenty of room. Problem is with the underground parkade, very dirty and does not appear to be cleaned ever. Limited access to fitness center, as outside memberships have been sold and as a hotel guest, well never did get access.
