"Heaven on the Pacific"
2022-04-28
If you have not stayed at Long Beach Lodge, you need to get your reservation soon. It is on a stunning piece of property on Cox Bay, Vancouver island. It has everything we could ever ask for- a cosy comfortable and beautifully equipped facility, with a fantastic dining room, excellent service in every way, and staff members who never cease to inspire us with their efficient work and fascinating life experiences and personalities. As you enter the Lodge property, you are greeted by the ever ebullient Sylvia, who ensures that you are a guest, and in the right place. The front desk staff, and restaurant staff are affable, informed, and skilled at their jobs. The housekeeping staff, like delightful Wivine from Kenya, are unobtrusively generous and eager to help in any way they can. And if you are a surfer, or want to be, everything you need is present - boards, suits, instruction, a surf bar and shop, and most importantly, relentless surf. My challenge is- go now and see if you are ready to return before you leave. We always have had that experience. It is a gem!
"Such a beautiful resort!"
2022-05-04
We booked our stay as a package through a third party . There was a mixup with our reservation. Luckily the Hotel was able to accommodate us in an equivalent room in the lodge overlooking the ocean. This hotel went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful stay! It was my sisters 65th birthday and she received a complimentary bottle of wine . We couldn’t have stayed in a more beautiful resort. Our room was on the ground floor and it was just steps to the beach . We spent a few hours in the late afternoons by the fire pit looking at the ocean. The scenery is breath taking. The views in the Great Room were amazing and the meals we had there were to die for! The staff is very friendly and helpful. All and all we had a fantastic time! I highly recommend this resort!
