Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

We stayed at the sunspree holiday inn last time we went and they did give us a discount as we were booking for 11 nights. Sunspree is on a very convenient location but I'm sure as you move further away from the lifts the accommodation will get cheaper. Always worth just emailing a few places direct and see what they can quote.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Welcome to s crystalng.
www.alluradirect.com is a good place to start - apartments (condos) directly rented from their owners. Apartments in Whistler don't have the 7 night Saturday-Saturday restriction of Europe as there's very high demand at weekends from people who live in Vancouver. So many owners will see a 10 day rental as a bonus - and will be open to negotiation.

Was just going to say Alluradirect. That's who we used when we were in Whistler a few years back. We got a superb condo in Blackcomb, right next to the slopes, for £15pp pn. Cheap as chips. Not sure you'll get it that cheap now, but you might get lucky.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Thanks guys, it's my first time venturing out of Europe so any tips are welcome!
Incidentally, how different are lessons in Canada compare to the ones in Europe? I've had a quick look and there are a lot of options out there!

crystalng,
Can't comment on lessons in Europe, but in Whistler I'd recommend both the Ski Esprit or the Dave Murray programmes.
Remember to tip your instructor!
