A quaint, quiet, comfortable place right on the bay with incredible views. Just a block or so from the town shops and restaurants, but far enough away you don’t hear them. Also just a stone’s throw from the dock where several wonderful bay tours and excursions begin. We did the EcoSeaker dolphin experience which had an excellent tour guide named Steve who is 5th generation in the area. The staff is friendly and helpful, the facilities are well maintained, and the grounds offer many fun things to do…we played several games of giant chess. I would absolutely love to return.

A nice older motel on the waterfront, the room was clean though somewhat tired looking. It was close to everything within the town, we would stay there again.

The room overlooking the water is so tranquil and relaxing it’s much better and worth the extra money. Weather permitting it’s like a very peaceful retreat with great views across harbour and mountains

Great location right on the waterfront. All attractions are in walking distance. Reception and information was not very helpful. Beanbag chairs were a nice touch for sitting by the water.

Stayed in a waterfront room. Great place to stay. Gorgeous outlook, nice to sit, relax and unwind. Handy to everything. Helpful staff. Bed a bit too soft for me, but that's just personal preference. Would stay again.
