Rooms were newly renovated and are huge. Great view. Lady who checked me in was not super friendly. Almost like I was annoying her checking me in. Can walk to restaurants, etc although not much going on in evenings. Get to dinner early.

Our room was large, clean and right on the marina. We got to hear the sea lions serenade us all day! We absolutely loved it. The town of Cow Bay is so cute and the food options delish! We will definitely be back!

Big rooms, clean and comfortable — but bring earplugs We stayed at The Suites and overall had a good experience. Pros: • Very spacious suites with great harbor views. • Clean throughout and well kept. • Convenient kitchenettes in the units. • Easy check-in process and plenty of parking. Cons: • The suites ran warm. There is AC, but unfortunately the units aren’t built-in; they’re extremely loud portable-style machines that sounded like a freight train, waking us up multiple times during the night. Grateful for the AC, but not the noise. • Pillows were very overstuffed, which gave me a neck ache, and there wasn’t really an option to swap them out. • No restaurant on site for breakfast. They do offer a breakfast delivery option you can pre-order, but the earliest delivery is 8:00 a.m., which might be too late for early risers or people heading out on morning plans. The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner and is excellent Bottom line: Spacious, clean, and with wonderful views — but if you’re sensitive to noise at night or need an early breakfast, keep those downsides in mind.

The Beach/Ocean views were Beautiful from our room and we loved everything about our large sweat room. My granddaughters favorite window was the round window beside the kitchen table.(There was nothing I didn't like about the beautiful room or the hotel) All the staff there were Very Friendly! The pool was a great temperature, and loved the hot tub also after a long day of exploring and shopping.The fresh seafood at the restaurant was excellent, with Beautiful views also. The air-conditioning worked great in the bedroom and living room/kitchen area. Happy to see that there was dog friendly rooms if we ever decided to travel with our dog. We felt very safe there and would definitely stay there again.
Beautiful Sunsets and Sunrises 💛& Best hotel room I've ever stayed in..👍.. I was very impressed!

Beautiful oceanfront property and quiet. Rooms were clean and well presented. Shower - water pressure was rather disappointing. The bed was comfortable however it made weird squeaks on very minimal movement - gave us not so private feeling.
