South Pender Island Vacations from $908

This is a very nice property. My only issue is that the staff seems to avoid the guests and are not generally available for help for things like when the coffee cups run out. We never met the hosts, which is unusual for a farm stay setting. You check in and get a key code via text or email. There are signs encouraging guests to walk around the premises and see the animals. But no map is provided indicating where the property borders are. Overall, a pleasant stay, but strange.

The room was in pristine conditions, and was very cozy and comfortable. The receptionist gave us recommendations on what to do around the island and places to have dinner at. Overall great stay!

We always stay at The Embassy hotel when we come to Victoria. Ideal location. Just a three minute walk to the beautiful inner harbour and the passenger ferry to Seattle. You can walk everywhere downtown from here. The hotel is well maintained with an excellent buffet breakfast. Staff are unfailingly helpful. Beds are really comfortable. Bathrooms are well stocked with towels, toiletries, a hairdryer and safety grab bars in the tub/shower. Parking costs extra, and available outdoors and underground. The hotel will hold your luggage in a secure storage area if you have a late flight or are taking a late ferry. FYI there’s no nightlight in the bathroom so bring one or a flashlight if you need one. Other than that, a really lively stay.
