There were no screens on the windows and two of them had been left open. I closed one, but the other was broken and couldn't be closed from the inside. I asked my host for help with that and she said she'd ask her husband to climb up on the boulder outside the window and push it closed. He didn't appear so I hauled myself up onto the boulder and pushed it closed myself. In the master suite you will find a double bed. Not a queen, not a king...a double bed. The bed is not comfortable and the bedding had been washed with one of those smelly soap brands. Overpowering. All the while, the mosquitos drone and whine and occasionally come in for a landing. While there is a hot tub, there is no water in it. There is no TV. There was also no breakfast due to Covid. Apparently Covid allows them to remain open, but doesn't allow for the placement of a continental breakfast in the fridge? Confusing. The armchairs facing out to the magnificent view were filthy and the couch was rock hard. When I called my host and told her we had decided to leave, and why, her reply was "It's unfortunate that you are a poor fit for the cabin". I guess it's my fault then?

It's very evident all the thought and care that has went into creating this beautiful atmosphere and resort. We spent nights in both the Sea to Sky Loft, as well as the Sunset Suite. Despite our suite change likely not being the most convenient for the owner Marsha, she never made us feel a bother. Both suites are incredible, it would be really hard to choose which one we preferred. The views from the Sea to Sky are breathtaking, but the space and steam shower of the Sunset are equally enjoyable. Both had propane fire pits outside, and we enjoyed cozying up in the provided robes while looking at the stars. The space was clean, and beds were very cozy. This place is a hidden gem! Marsha was so kind and hospitable, and went above and beyond to make our stay the best as can be. The breakfasts she provided were all SO good! It wasn't your average Bnb, as each morning we got to taste something new that we had never tried before. We will definitely be back! We highly recommend this Bnb. Thanks Marsha!

Will be going back for sure, highly recommended.

I am proud to review this splendidly wonderful little B&B they call the Willow Guest House…read more Before I begin the review, I think it is imperative that I preface it with a small but relavent note about myself. I am a well traveled person however, for all intent and purposes, I am very much a city guy. And being so, have a particular disposition regarding the finer things in life; the little but important conveniences of nicer living. So I would comfortably say that I have high expectations when it comes to accommodations and anything I plan to pay for or during a vacation. So having traveled a great deal, I have experienced a wide spectrum of quality in services and accommodations throughout the world. I am extremely pleased to say that I have never experienced any accommodations quite like the one at the Willow Guest House. In short, it truly felt like I was coming home. My biggest apprehension when it comes to B&Bs is the imbalance most B&Bs have between the business and the home. Either it is too business like with the warmth and homely coziness of The Adams Family or too much home and not enough business which leaves for rather awkward interactions and no sense of privacy. The Willow Guest House has this balanced magnificently. Never once did I feel like an intruder or awkward. Warren and Dee (the owners) are the kindest and most generous people I have ever met. The moment my girlfriend and I stepped into their home, it felt like we were family. It was quite remarkable actually. Their rare ability to be unconditionally welcoming and genuine is so refreshing that I found myself wishing our trip was longer than two nights! They are a perfect team and care so much about their B&B that every single detail towards excellence is considered. I would come back and stay at their brilliantly wonderful B&B any chance I can get. In fact I wish every hotel in Whistler would take some notes of what true hospitality and comfort is. This is undeniably the BEST BED AND BREAKFAST I have EVER had the pleasure of visiting. You will not be disappointed when you book with Warren and Dee. They are a true gem.

While travelling on business recently, my husband realized that not so much as a garden shed was available in Courtenay because of a large influx of visitors for the BC Seniors Games. Through the Chamber he found the only room in the whole area and that was only because of a last minute cancellation. The hosts were divine, the room was lovely, the price was right and breakfast was amazing. He had such a nice time. They have two upstairs rooms with a full kitchen and living area for guests... you can cook your own food, hang out and watch TV and then go down to the hosts kitchen for a made to order breakfast. Five stars just for the home made granola!

In an area of the Sunshine Coast where summertime accommodations are constantly booked out, this…read moreplace may fill a good gap in the area. Still being prepped for the season, I got the grand tour of the various "furnished camping" sites: a yurt of sorts, a cabin, A trailer, and soon to be deluxe tents that you don't need to bring. Perfect for people coming to the area wanting to travel light. What appeals to me is the variety of options,.. not everyone wants a trailer but a through cyclist can use a tent knowing their next stop may be in Powell river and they didn't want to carry so much just for the middle part of their trip (as was the case for me). I see the potential of this place expanding and the small touches are evident an on the way. For example at night there is plenty of solar powered LED lighting to make it a bit magical as they line the access trails and hand off the outhouses.

Some guests come for longer periods and the majority of their listings offer wifi, so it's a great spot for those who can work remotely. Every season, they add at least one new listing. 2 years ago, it was 4 fully furnished campsites, complete with all the camping gear, tent on platform, picnic table, etc. In the spring of 2024, they launched their very cool and unique micro A-Frame, with an opening wall, really blending the indoor and outdoor space. Tiny Secrets is all about offering Tiny, yet very functional and unique listings on their 10-acre oceanview property. The more time you spend here, the more secrets you'll discover. They are also located only 20 minutes from Sechelt and 12 minutes from Madeira Park, so they are very central. You can even come multiple times and stay in a different place each time.

My Bed and Breakfast experience is mind-bogglingly vast. I have slept nearly every night of my life…read moreon a bed - at least 96% of all 3am hours have been spent between the sheets - and I often will consume a first meal of the day before the hour of 12am. As for the more traditional concept of a B&B - to wit, paying to spend the night in the home of a stranger - I have only done so once or twice before. That said, it is hard to imagine a more wonderful or welcoming environment than Our Place, as provided by Lewis and Lorraine. I was in Parksville for the wedding of a friend, and my girlfriend looked into possible locations for the night. She settled on Our Place, and it was a very wise decision... nearly as wise as dating me in the first place. Lewis and Lorraine were both gregarious and effervescent, even offering to drive us to the wedding (!!!) when my lady's car gave up the ghost. While we were able to arrange alternate transportation, that spontaneous and generous offer really helps highlight the Our Place experience. We stayed in the 'Jazz Room', a very clean and comfortable space, and lounged around on the chairs outside in the sun. The inclusion of a copy of the board game 'Clue' in the side-cabinet was an especially nice touch. Privacy was ensured by a locking inner door and separate entrance to the guest suites. The only thing that remains to be praised is the breakfast, praise is greatly deserves. Grand Marnier-infused French toast with orange zest, home-made muffins, fresh yoghurt over summer strawberries and a wide selection of juices - along with the stimulating and wide-ranging morning conversation - made the morning meal a gastronomic and intellectual delight. And all this for the very reasonable price of $110/night. We figured that breakfast alone was worth $30-$40, leaving the price of the room per person down to around $35-$40 - numbers that even MC Hammer can touch.

Indeed, I am creating their business page on Yelp just to do so (so it must be that good, right?). My girlfriend and I had a fabulous one night stay with our hosts, Margaret and Michael. So many memorable conversations with them both after we arrived and over breakfast the next morning. What lovely and interesting people! You simply must go meet them! :) The house itself completely dazzled me. I walked around slack jawed for the first 15 minutes. I wanted the name of their architect! Such a gorgeous home they've built. So open and full of light! Our room was spotless, modern and beautiful! The grounds themselves are also extensive. It would surprise you. We were free to walk around the property as much as we wanted and we took them up on the offer. They have a stunning flower garden and vegetable garden that wrap around the entire house and Michael has a work "shed" (read: beautifully constructed two-story workshop) back in the woods of their property where he can project in solitude. Oh, and to top it all off, Margaret's breakfast was dynamite! So incredibly delicious, my word! See picture. I am a sucker for a breakfast that appeals to both my savory and sweet palette and Margaret nailed it! Also, speaking of food, Margaret and Michael highly recommended checking out the Laughing Oyster down the road for dinner. Such a good call. We had one of the most romantic dinners of our lives out on the deck. We were so thankful for the recommendation! Bottom Line: This was one of the best - perhaps the best - bed and breakfast experiences I have ever had. And that is saying something! Do not miss this place if you come up the Sunshine Coast!
