“Beautiful location”

We thoroughly enjoyed our 8 night stay. The location can't be beat. It's right by the Whiffin Spit, a beautiful walk on a dyke-like spit. We loved the seals and how they would swim close to our kayaks, and one of them came up on the wharf to see if we had anything for them to eat. It's a 20 minute… lisää

We thoroughly enjoyed our 8 night stay. The location can't be beat. It's right by the Whiffin Spit, a beautiful walk on a dyke-like spit. We loved the seals and how they would swim close to our kayaks, and one of them came up on the wharf to see if we had anything for them to eat. It's a 20 minute drive to the Sooke Potholes - a great place to swim. The rooms were clean and tidy. The owners are very nice people, who have had medical issues that have kept them from doing repairs and updates but are working hard to catch up. However, Iris Properties, the management company that have taken over need to do a re-think on some of their procedures. Whether you stay for one night or 8 nights, you get one towel and one face cloth for your entire stay. When we asked about it we were told we could pay for extra towels or go to a local laundromat. Really?? We have travelled to many places in the world, and this is the first time we were not given extra towels for free. When we complained enough, they finally said they would do it this one time only and gave us extra towels on Day 6. The owners felt really bad about it as this is not how they want things done. I would not let this stop you from going to this awesome place, but I would have a conversation with Iris Properties about towels right at the time you register. I would have given a higher rating than 3-star if it wasn't for the management company. I give the owners a 5-star. Lovely people. We would definitely go back again.
