This review is specifically for the pool(s). The facilities are really good, although the changing…read moreroom/showers are fairly primitive. The salt water pools are both nice--a good sized lap pool and a warmer leisure for water walking and kid fun, as well as a river for floating and relaxing. There is also a giant water slide. The downside is the management of the pools, or lack thereof. Don't expect rules to be enforced, especially in summer, when the lifeguards are almost exclusively teenagers. Kids play in the lap lanes, which disappear with little regard to the schedule. I saw a child dive into the shallow end of the kids' pool and not one of the three lifeguards said anything or perhaps even noticed. Usually there's only one swim lane during aquafit, even if the class is sparsely attended. If you want equipment--water weights, for instance--you often have to hunt down someone to get them for you from a back room. Most gyms I've been to have that equipment readily available. During aquafit classes, the music is so loud that the people in the water often can't hear the instructor, and the instructors are already miked. The volume is headache-inducing at times. Additionally, the music itself is generally very bad. In the morning, it's the same hits of the 70s on a loop ("American Pie" every morning gets old quickly) and in the evenings it's even worse. Little effort seems to go into matching what people in the aquafit classes might enjoy--it's just typical aerobics music, with no imagination or common sense put into the song choice, given that the majority of the people in the classes are 65-plus. (Pre-1960 music actually had a beat--people jitterbugged to it!) I mention music because it's loud, there's no escaping it, and having contemporary country (for example) blaring in your ear isn't always what you want when you're trying to unwind after a long day.

When you wanna get away from it all to "zen" it up, Galiano Island is a perfect spot. And, if you…read morereally want to be away from everything once you're on the island, Serenity By The Sea plays a great host. From the Seaview Haven Chalet, with it's own kitchen and two floors of my own space, it was blissful peace from the moment I dropped my bags. Definitely rustic, with a grandma's house vibe (complete with stuffed animals) the chalet only has one piece of "technology," a CD player--ideal when you're there to escape! *And a potty note -- they are on a septic system, so if you can handle tossing your TP in the trash instead of the bowl, they greatly appreciate it!* The view from the bedroom was incredible! Waking up to look at the ocean, framed in trees always has a way of winning my heart! My only suggestions would be for them to update some of the furnishings, linens and bedding. Right next to the main house, a stream runs straight over the big rocks leading to the ocean. I had to admit, there was something serenely magical about sitting out on this edge. When the tide was out, I spent so long stretched out on a long rock with my book that I sunburned -- ouch! A bathtub (yes, a bathtub) that you can fill up is built right into the rocks. I didn't give it a try - not being a bath person myself, but it does have a great view! *A deer note: Make sure you're around at dinner time, that's when the deer come out and try to sneak nibbles through the fences they have protecting their gardens.* There's also a couple of rooms they rent out inside the main house which had extraordinary views as well! Maybe if I'm feeling more social next time I want to escape I'll look into one of those...one did have a hammock after all! If this is up your alley, I should warn, the house is situated down a long steep gravel road, 12 km from the ferry terminal. That's about 1/2 way up the island, so I'd say a car, or really powerful bike legs...and it is a hilly ride!

Septic tank toilet paper mention by Crystal is accurate. Also Host asked us to minimize using the lights in the hallway, so you get to be environmentally conscientious. Stayed in the "Windsail" room. AMAZING view. It's like you're only in water cause you only see water. Individually temperature controlled room. beauitful house, seriously. Every room seems unique in an arty and aesthetically pleasing way. Luannah showed us the rec room she is in the middle of building and it looks great. super lovely property, kind of like a zen garden mixed with human size hobbit environment, like the streams, the rocks, the paths, the hills. Massage by Luannah, a german RMT, was educational and helpful. I read a lot of the reviews and she really does know her stuff. I have chronic pain and long standing issues from an MVA and she really did help. My roomie got a massage that was more related to stress and emotions. Theres only one RMT so we took turns. We both came out feeling genuinely happy. The Massage room is a separate house, also another amazing structure. Its clean, modern, well-set up. She asks you tell her about your body and when you go to disrobe, she goes behind these doors and then you tell her when youre ready. I actually love the face pillow that you put your head on when lying face down, it is, for once, comfortable!! Host: Luannah said she was going to send me referrals in Vancouver for a chiro and an RMT, which I thought was really kind and thoughtful of her. She knocks on the door and also responds to texts and calls. Her husband and kid came home later in the evening. She was super caring, thoughtful and helpful. Even packed us food to go cause we were in a rush for the ferry. Provided advil. Wifi is good. Shower nozzle was super tricky to get right. There's cat in the main area and I think I only sneezed and blew my nose a handful of times, which I'd say youre pretty safe imo. Cat is 19 year old Jeremiah who goes outside and stays downstairs, super cute!! Hot tub was my super favorite part.
