The new expanded airport gives visitors from all over the world the opportunity for quick access to this untouched and quaint location only 20 minutes away.
About Us
Rocky Mountain Accommodations - Kimberley evolved from a family business that Doug and daughter Alex Ibbotson started eight years ago in Kimberley. The business has grown in both number of units and occupancy over the past few years and has now taken on our beautiful condos in Radium and Invemere. All of our guests still receive that 'small business' personal service. The importance we place on guest service and perceived value has translated into 65% return or referred guests which has helped to contribute to an increase in property values for our property owners.
