The property and room was not aligned with marketing descriptions and expectations thereof. The room was not a suite as advertised but a single room. Small windows with zero views and limited daylight. It was in no way ‘ocean-front’. The so-called kitchenette was a stretch by any imagination. We needed to hang our clothes in the closet of which three quarters was for an old microwave and old fridge as part of the so-called kitchenette. in the morning before 6am tourists headed to whale watching noisily walked past our room. Fortunately there was a good park for walking nearby so we spent as much time as possible outdoors. Our experiences with this property were marginal.

The electric kettle didn’t work properly and the owner insisted that we wait 5-10 minutes for it to start working, which we had to do each time we wanted to make tea and coffee. Obviously the proprietors are too cheap to replace it

Cabin was not as it appears in website.
We found that the marketing pictures did not represent what we rented or expected. The photos shown a hot tub off deck and view of water. Our cabin did not- the owners HOME had the view and hot tub. We stayed 4 nights. Had to go ask for more paper products and towels on 3rd day. Cabin was not adequately cleaned/ small appliances blew the breaker. Kitchen Tool were used, and everything needed cleaning before use. The floors and bathroom we cleaned. No adequate supplies. It was my birthday get away and we were disappointed. Photo is the actual view! ☹️

Hot tub was great. Room was fairly spacious. Area was very quiet and the ocean view was wonderful from the hot tub. Fridge was very small and there were no hooks for coats or clothes. walkway out to the ocean was very nice but did need some work to make it feel safer. Price was good. Would definitely stay there again,

Salty Towers on the water
We enjoyed our two nights at Salty Towers right on the water. Especially enjoyed the hot tub at night- one night in total fog! Nice views from the back. Pretty convenient (not walking distance) to town and restaurants etc.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
All dishes filthy. I poured a glass of wine which went to waste because then it started to create foam on the surface from who knows what was in the glass. Then I went through checking every single glass until I decided to just wash one so I could have my glass of wine. I wanted to use a mug, they all turned out to be not mildly dirty, but FILTHY. Our host later expressed annoyance with us for not having closed the jacuzzi properly which is not fair as there were no instructions for use of Jacuzzi nor can he expect all his guests to know how to properly care for a hot tub. Very disappointed overall. The property is also not as in as fair condition as the images show. Will not return

Quaint Cabin by the Sea
We stayed at the Harbourside cabin. It was clean, nice size and had a functional kitchenette. The queen bed was very comfortable and shower has lots of hot water and pressure. The patio had good setup for chairs, bbq and table. Partial ocean view from patio (shrubs need trimming to expand view). Double bed in bedroom was good for my daughter. Only negative was the queen bed is in the main living area and the fridge was noisy. Not just a humming sound but a ‘click, click, click’ constantly at night (I had to turn it off). Hosts assured me they ordered another fridge and intend to replace it.

The jacuzzi facing the ocean was really good and the location on the beach was excellent. However, the photos displayed on Expedia were a bit misleading that they included 3 different cottages' photos and many of them were not accessible. For example, one of the photos showed there is a kitchen facing the ocean and seems to be large. We thought we could use it and brought our ribs to roast but it turned out not in the unit we are using (our kitchen was super small and don't have a oven big enough to roast ribs) and that kitchen was in the owner's unit. Would recommend identifying photos with their belonging unit numbers and make it clear which unit we are booking for in the system.

Perfect location, especially if you want to go on the whale watching tours. Easy access to west coast highway and provincial parks, trails and beaches. A nice place with a nice family operating it. This is not luxury. It a a clean, welcoming place in an outstanding location, and a great value. We will likely return.
