We went to the Kingfisher on Christmas Eve to the Sky Dome dinner. It was absolutely lovely and…read moreincredibly relaxing. I was a bit worried it might be cold, but it was perfectly comfortable -- the heater kept the temperature just right. There were blankets provided on the chairs, though we didn't even need them. Dinner was a set menu with two choices, and the whole experience lasted about three hours. It truly felt special and memorable. I would highly recommend it, especially for a special occasion.

This is still our favorite spa getaway in the world. We've been coming for 20 years, and the spa…read moreand hotel experience is always perfect. We did the hydropath and massages and booked the romance suite down on the water. That suite is enormous, and while the tub in it looks neat, after a whole day of being in the water, we didn't need a bath. ;) Everything is freshly renovated, and after all these years, the spa looks just as clean and well-kept as it always was. I actually prefer this place to Canyon Ranch or the Mission Sonoma. I know. That sounds crazy but I do love it here. Note: there is a separate Yelp listing for the restaurant. It's a bit hit-and-miss.

Work trip to Powell River. Let me start by saying this: folks are just nicer in Powell River…read more Seriously... the service everywhere was genuine and friendly and helpful like they knew me. This is a decent hotel with good amenities. The pub has nice food and is comfortable for an after work drink and game of pool. The restaurant for continental breakfast is clean and decent. I wasn't too thrilled with the selection - it was a carb fest with no hint of protein to be seen. One morning when I made coffee in my room at 6am I called to ask if there was some way I could get milk, and they had it sent up by somebody who was in prepping for breakfast in the closed restaurant. That is service and it saved me from having to put powdered white death in my coffee. Great spot - recommend for business travel. It is also near Safeway Staples and other places where you need stuff... when you need it.

I'm a bit stunned to see that this hotel has such a low review average. My stay here exceeded…read moreexpectations and I was satisfied with it. The staff here are very friendly and will go out of their way to make sure you have a good stay here. The room was quite comfortable, spacious, and relatively clean. Sure, maybe it was a bit dated, but it still got the job very well done in the end. As long as it gets the job done, I personally don't care. The beds were easy to get a good night sleep on and the hotel is very quiet, which is great. Laundry service is available, however, they do not have self-serve washing machines. They take care of the laundry for you for $10 per service, which I must say is quite reasonable. Honestly, I like how they take care of the laundry for you so you don't have to worry about it. The biggest plus for me is that there is an elevator on the property should you need it to go up to the second floor. That's a HUGE plus. Location is excellent, you can get to pretty much any store from the hotel in walking distance. I would stay here again for sure if my travels took me up to Powell River in the future.

An instant favourite was the scallops which was rich and creamy without being overly heavy. The atmosphere is casual but classy, making it the perfect spot for a relaxed meal.

The ingredients are incredibly fresh, and the flavors are expertly balanced.

We decided to spend our Anniversary here at the Rockwater Secret Cove Resort from Washington. Years…read moreago we stayed here and stayed in a historic cabin. This time we reserved a water side tent. We could not have been happier. This thing is an actual tent with a metal frame. It's one main space with a small bump out for the water closet. There's a shower/sink area with a jetted soaking tub on the other side. Don't get any illusions about sound insulation or sound privacy. These things are lightly constructed and move in the wind which was very cool because a wind storm rolled in. The sea was rolling and all we could here was wind and breakers hitting the rocks below us. There's a gas fireplace inside and the double doors lead out onto the deck for the unobstructed view. We had no problems with the front desk or housekeeping. Just know the way you get to the tents is on a long raised boardwalk along the cliff side. If you get a tent with a high number it's a pretty good hump. There are also copious amounts of stairways leading to the tents from the walkway. They have some luggage carts to use and they pick them up after you drag your stuff to your tent. We enjoyed every minute and barely left our tent. It was pretty quiet and restful. The restaurant/bar is in the main building and is considered high end. The prices certainly are but I did not see that in the food per se. I had seafood linguine. It had scallops (scallop bits actually) shrimp, Krab, and a hint of salmon. First off when you put shrimp in a creamy pasta dish the tails need to be removed. The shrimp in my dish had tails. I took time to remove them which I shouldn't have had to do. The salmon was a few flaky chunks about the size of my thumbnail. The flavor was okay but I found the sauce a bit runny and the linguine was not cooked long enough for me. I did not complain though. My Bride had a lamb dish with vegetables and whipped potatoes. We are coming back to stay here but will most likely not patronize the restaurant. I thought it was overpriced even at the US to Canada exchange rate. This takes nothing away from the resort. It's amazing here and we shall return.

From the owner: Savary Island is one of the most beautiful islands in the Straight of Georgia. It is accessible by…read morefloat plane, boat, barge or water taxi from Lund. Savary is known for its white sand beaches, beautiful swimming waters and stunning ocean and mountain views. The warm waters surrounding Savary Island make it an excellent location for swimming, paddle boarding, kayaking, water skiing, boating, scuba diving, fishing and shell fishing (with a valid fishing license of course). The Island also boasts kilometers of hiking and biking trails that wind through the lush growth of fir, cedar, maple, alder, pine, yew and arbutus trees that cover most of the island. Savary Island is the ideal retreat for people wanting to get away from the hectic pace of city living... for a romantic, relaxing weekend, group getaways, or an extraordinary outdoor experience. The Savary Island Resort offers rental accommodation on Savary Island in British Columbia, Canada. The resort is located on BC's Sunshine Coast approximately 45 minutes north of Powell River. The Resort sleeps a maximum of 20 people and provides four private bunk style rooms plus two decadent luxury suites. The Savary Island Resort opened for business in the spring of 2010. Surpassing our every expectation, we have welcomed guests from The Netherlands, Russia, Japan, China, The US and all over Canada, plus many from The Lower Mainland. We look forward to creating memories with you.

Pool was cold so we didn't stay long. Our 1.5 y/o was shivering, we were chilled too. Wasn't overly relaxing. Playground was a little tough for her. It was handmade. Big tires for stairs and a big steep tube cut in half for a slide. It's cool for the older kids though. The room was more than we needed for one night therefore almost double than what we were looking to pay. The gas stove knobs were too enticing for her and she kept trying to turn them on. Steep stairs to the upper floor.

We were greeted promptly and when we saw our Honeymoon Suite we were blown away. It was GORGEOUS. We picked the perfect place for a relaxing honeymoon. We had our own grill, plenty of space in the room, a jacuzzi hot tub, and the most beautiful view from our room! The owner, "Shady," was anything BUT shady! She was so friendly and down to earth. She gave us tips about what to see and do during our stay. It was our first time in Canada so we GREATLY appreciated it. I would 100% recommend a visit here if you need a vacation! Lots of privacy if you want, and kayaks for rent as well as exciting things to do if that floats your boat!
