Felt welcomed immediately. The hosts were very accommodating and knowledgeable about the area. Very comfy, cozy, a nice place to escape to and I’d definitely book again. Enjoyed our time in the sun on the deck and the leisurely walk to the lake trails nearby.

Amazing, Private & Welcoming Guesthouse
This Westwood guesthouse is a 5 star property; wonderful private location in a quiet neighbourhood. It’s within distance of everything you could need while visiting Nanaimo. The furnishings are excellent & the kitchen is perfectly equipped for all cooking needs. This well-designed guesthouse was immaculate & it has all amenities anyone would require, including parking. The deck & BBQ is a terrific addition, as is the lovely fireplace. Joanne is a gracious, accessible & kind host. We felt completely at home in this property & would highly recommend the guesthouse at Westwood to all! We will definitely rebook for our next visit to see family.

This property is beautiful. The patio was a bonus. Hosts are very friendly and easy to communicate with. They were very accommodating when we added a couple of more people to the original reservation. I will definitely stay there again. It was the perfect settling for catching up with family.
