Everything is perfect and during our stay we could not stop feeling Bob&Sherry's hospitality. Our first visit to Comox became an amazing experience as both of them.

We had an absolutely wonderful time at Emily’s house! The house is not only beautiful and very cozy, but also perfectly equipped with everything you could possibly need – and spotlessly clean. We also enjoyed sitting outside on the terrace and simply taking in the peaceful atmosphere. What truly makes Velvet Fern Guesthouse special is the thoughtful and loving attention to detail: everything was personally and carefully prepared for our arrival, including a lovely breakfast and bikes we could use – such a kind touch! We felt welcome and at home from the very first moment. Thank you so much, Emily – we’d love to come back!

Easy to find, not far out of Port Alberni. Very quiet and our cabin was spotless with lots of space. Well equipped mini kitchen with fridge, microwave, coffee machine, bowls, plates, mugs. Naomi kindly gave us a chopping board and knives. Best to bring own cutlery, which I’d forgotten! Naomi’s advice and knowledge of the area and the drive to Tofino was invaluable. She was so friendly and welcoming. Close to Sproat Lake for safe swimming in an idyllic location.

Loved the view, breakfast was good, spa and sauna great but you will need a car from this location to get around the island.

It's not a 5* hotel, we know that. But, as we've been to hundreds of hotels, this is definitely the best value based on its price. Many extras, staff and the public "great room" is really great

I wanted a clean, quiet, pretty & safe place to stay. The suite had it all, and the host directed me to breathtakingly beautiful, not to be missed sites. Check-in and out was easy, too.

There was a very nice simple breakfast of toast, fruit, yogurt, granola and coffee or tea provided. The property is quiet, with excellent views and a short drive to downtown Duncan. Dave the host is great and can help you with anything you might need.

Lipton is a very responsive and polite host. The heritage house is nicely remodelled. Our quiet bedroom was spotless with very comfy 4 poster bed, nice linens, walk in closet, an updated bathroom and there was also a huge sunroom with table, 6 chairs, small fridge and microwave. Parking on property and electronic entry very convenient. The house is located on the Gorge, a lovely area which is especially pretty in the spring and has walking and bike paths. Found a nice grocery store, Fairview, a few blocks away. Perfect overnight stay!

We had a really great time in Ucluelet and in this guest house! The outdoor area was beautiful designed and very well maintained! It‘s a very quiet location. Our apartment was very clean too and there was everything we needed for our stay! You have the chance to see some wildlife as well :)! Highlights were the sauna as well as the welcome package with water and some sweets and some hiking maps. We will come back! Thanks for a great time.

Immaculate, spotlessly clean. Spacious suite, warm, super comfortable. Kitchen well equipped. Nice view to watch ferries come and go. Considerate hosts. Quiet location away from downtown. Bowen Park at end of street for walks among trees beside river and waterfalls. Perfect for a couple of days r&r. Would definitely choose to stay there again.
