Why Kimberley is Highly Rated for Value

Kimberley's silver medal for Best Ski Resort for Value in North America isn't just about cheap lift tickets - though our users reckon those are pretty reasonable too. It's the complete package that makes your wallet happy while keeping the stoke high. Snomad users consistently praise the resort's ability to deliver quality without the eye-watering price tags you'd find at bigger names. Joel raved about the "INCREDIBLE" food and beverage programme, which is music to anyone's ears who's winced at on-mountain dining prices elsewhere. The resort scores a brilliant 4.54/5.00 for value, and when you factor in genuine ski-in/ski-out options without remortgaging your house, it's easy to see why.

Kelly highlighted the "great value" alongside family-friendly vibes and loads of other winter activities thrown in. The compact design means you're not burning through cash on shuttles or taxis, whilst the uncrowded slopes mean you actually get to ski rather than queue. Christine summed it up perfectly, noting the local vibes and lack of commercial chaos that often inflates prices at more crowded resorts. When your accommodation, dining, and lift tickets all come in under budget whilst still delivering quality terrain and short lift lines, you've struck gold - or in this case, silver.

"Great family resort. Cheaper than other hills in the area for a great family experience. Cheaper to stay at than Fernie and close enough to make it a day trip and save some money. "

About the Snomad Ski Resort Awards

The Snomad Ski Resort Awards are the most authentic and unbiased recognition in the ski industry, based entirely on genuine guest experiences from real skiers and snowboarders.

Unlike other awards that rely on paid nominations or allow resorts to collect their own votes, ours are determined by verified ratings from actual visitors who have experienced these resorts firsthand.

This approach ensures that winning resorts truly deserve recognition based on guest satisfaction rather than marketing budgets or social media follower counts, providing you with trustworthy recommendations for your next mountain adventure.
