    There was no breakfast option. But the cafe directly below the accommodation served great breakfasts. However they are not open on Monday and Tuesday so we could only have one breakfast there as we were staying until Monday.

    The only thing we missed was probably a bicycle rack right at the accommodation. There is one close by on Artisan Square, though.

    Wonderful views, comfortable bed (and sofa bed), spacious room, helpful communication when we had a question, nice touches throughout. Nice food in the Café. We loved our stay, even though it was for one night only. Fantastic location for exploring the island. Check in was easy.

    A luxurious stay on beautiful Bowen Island

    The suite was bright, huge, and beautifully decorated with great lighting. The chairs, sofa, and bed were extremely comfortable. The bathroom had a rain shower and deep tub for soaking, and the amenities (shampoo, hand wash, and lotion) were artisanal and exquisite! Filtered water, a Nespresso machine, and milk for coffee were provided, as were locally made chocolates on our pillows. We enjoyed having wine on our balcony overlooking the square and we also loved that the only thing you could watch on TV was Netflix—it made it more relaxing not to have cable. Parking and check in were great. We highly recommend this lovely place and will return.

    Loved the location, nestled in Artisan Square, with a beautiful view overlooking the water. The room was well-appointed with a luxurious king bed and nice touches like a Nespresso machine! I also really enjoyed the rainfall shower. The room was clean and modern. Clear communication from owners with check-in information.

    When the restaurant downstairs is open, you could hear a quite loud grumbling sound from probably air conditioning in our room (parkview), no problem at all if you are an early bird and leave the room during the day, but if you want to sleep in (longer than 8.30am) we would recommend to choose another room there.

    Very beautiful cozy place! The bed was super comfy and the little cul de sac is so cute and perfekt to stroll around. Very clean and nice touches with local soap in the bathroom and local chocolate on the bed.

    The stairs going up to the suite would be a challenge for the mobility impaired.

    So clean! The decor was beautiful as was the view. I loved the extra touches like the printed/laminated Info cards, the Nespresso machine with milk in the fridge and the reverse osmosis water. Check in and out was a breeze. Love the location.

    My sister and I stayed here for a few days. We loved that it felt like we were in a little artsy village within walking distance from Snug Cove. The beds were very comfy, with lovely linens. A real feature was that the botanical luxury shampoos, conditioner, soap and lotion we used were all made a few steps away at Sangre De Fruta shop. We also loved the Artisan Eats café place right downstairs that served up delicious breakfasts, baking and sandwiches to take with us on our explorations of this delightful island.

    The cream, milk in the fridge was spoiled so we couldn’t have coffee or tea in the room and enjoy it while looking outside.

    The view was amazing and so was the cafe below. The room has items from local shops near by like botanical soup, organic chocolates and that was very nice.
