Hi Lena,
Thank you for your terrific review! So pleased you and your family enjoyed your get-away! The place was left so nice too. I appreciate that. Please come back again!
This was such a great place to stay! Morning coffees with ocean views and humpback whales! Lots to do from great local hikes to beach combing! The hosts went out of their way to put small touches to make us feel right at home! We will be coming back very soon!

Thank you Brenton for your lovely review. How great your family sited whales!
Never guaranteed but always special.
Come back again!
The pictures don’t do this place justice, it’s even more beautiful in person. The hosts are very kind and provide everything (down to individually wrapped makeup wipes!). The place is very clean as well. I would love to visit again.

Thank you for your very kind review Leonie.
Please come to share this little piece of paradise with us again!
This suite is all one could ask for. With the breathtaking vistas of the water from both the spacious, modern deck and inside the comfortable, clean suite, we wished we could extend our stay. The hot tub was a real treat with amazing views and the sunsets were incredible. Eating meals on the deck overlooking the water was a beautiful experience. Eagle sightings was the cherry on top of our relaxing getaway. We are looking forward to returning in the future.
The perfect place to relax and the views were spectacular! Nancy's suite is brand new, and she provided everything we would possibly need, from robes and comfy Turkish towels for the hot tub, to plenty of spices and condiments in the kitchen. The bed and pillows were super comfortable, as were the two couches. She also had great recommendations for local hikes! The deck and hot tub were the icing on the cake, and the layout of the suite is perfect for enjoying the views. We would definitely come back again!

Thank you for the lovely review. So glad you enjoyed yourselves, even with the orchestra of sea lions. Please come back when you need to decompress from your busy life.
My wife and I stayed here for 2 nights on our way down the coast and we were sad we didn't stay longer. The pictures look so amazing and they don't do it any justice. Besides the huge deck and hot tub, the interior of the house was second to none. The attention to detail and professional decor makes the space so easy and calming to be in. We could tell that every small detail was considered, from the kitchen utensils to the professional grade appliances. The lighting was amazing, and there are world class views in every direction. We ended up getting take out for dinner the first night because we didn't want to leave and we spent the whole next day on the deck. We had rain, sun, Bald Eagles..you couldn't ask for more and we'll definitely be headed back when we're in the area.
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Vrbo! We stayed with our two young kids (ages 2 and 4), and it was the perfect getaway. Nancy and Gord are fantastic hosts who have truly thought of everything to make the rental feel like home.The house is stocked with everything you might need, and we really appreciated the electrical fireplace—it gave us major cozy vibes all weekend long.The deck is massive, and the views are unreal! It was such a treat to relax out there, and the kids absolutely loved the hot tub. The kitchen was fully stocked, and we were able to BBQ and enjoy family meals with ease. Inside, the huge windows let us enjoy the stunning view no matter the weather.There are also some great local places to hike and lovely beaches nearby to explore, which was perfect for our little ones to burn off some energy. We’ve already recommended this place to several friends and family members because we know they won’t be disappointed.A huge thank you to Nancy and Gord for sharing your amazing home with us. We can’t wait to come back!

About the host
Hosted by Nancy Scott
We live in a place so special that it is to be shared with those who love a coastal experience. While retired from our professions the spirit lives on, Nancy an interior designer and Gordon an engineer. Together we conceived and developed a purpose built place to accommodate Gord’s hobbies and Nancy’s hospitality. The suite is oriented away from the primary home to give complete privacy to our guests. We see this as a perfect romantic getaway for a couple, or party of friends or young family to take in a coastal getaway with nearby amenities and activities to make a stay memorable. Now completed and brand new, we look forward to sharing this piece of paradise with you.
Why they chose this property
The coastal waterfront is never dull whatever the weather. Sealife is abundant, whales, sea lions, seals, fish jumping, migrating birds, eagles. A clear night is free from light pollution to have you in awe at the stars above. Martin Cove is steps away to explore the beach, swim, popular to scuba dive and to launch a kayak. Also you can walk directly to Francis Point Park through the forest to the shoreline trail or from the trail head off Merril Road.
What makes this property unique
Our property is at the mouth of Pender Harbour on a rocky point. You will enjoy watching the diversity boats coming and going while feeling uniquely private from density of the harbour. One can easily kayak into the inner harbour or a 10 min drive will have you at services and restaurants nearby.
