Having a water view in the West End right on Beach Avenue makes you forget you are living in a big city and is the best area bar none in my book. Newer areas with killer condos that people seem to be flocking to for the "lifestyle" are Coal Harbour and Yaletown. I own a condo in Yaletown myself that I rent out. They both have their pluses. But IMHO, they don't compare to the West End. Plus Drinking Hard just moved into a place with a beautiful view a little while ago a couple of doors down from me . If you are looking to rent or buy right now, the deals are definatley in the West End since all the new moeny seems to be flocking to the new condos in the areas mentioned above.
I would say anything west of Bute on Beach Ave. leading up to the park is best. You have Denman and Davie streets right there with dozens of different restaurants...and the beach and ocean and park right in front of you...
