What Kelowna is all about
Staying in Kelowna is a treat for those who enjoy drinking wine and playing golf (there are 17 courses to test your every nerve). For those that do not enjoy wine and golf, you need to get your priorities straight because you are missing out! Kelowna is a true Canadian gem with its hot summers and relatively mild winters. Downtown Kelowna is located in the Okanagan Valley, a name truly synonymous with fine Canadian wine. Local vineyards are literally a 10 minute drive from the downtown core.
If you are flying in and out of the city the airport is loacated just over 10km north of the city's core. The closest Kelowna Airport hotels are actually more or less the same hotels found in the downtown core, so you'll find yourself right in the middle of all the action.
Surrounding Area
If you are looking to check out some other areas along the Okanagan Valley you'll find the city of Penticton about 70km to the south and Vernon 50km to the north.
