We had a great stay at Poets Cove on Pender Island. Everything was very clean, the amenities were excellent (hot tub, massage, etc.), and the views were absolutely beautiful. It’s the perfect place to relax, escape city life, and enjoy nature. The staff were very friendly, and the restaurant was amazing, especially the seafood. You can tell they have an excellent chef. Highly recommended!

Beautiful resort.
Room was cosy, clean with a beautiful view.
There wasn’t a phone in the room
We ate dinner in the Aurora restaurant and the food was awesome.
Looking forward to using the pool and hot tub tomorrow morning before we leave
Unfortunately the spa was fully booked on Sunday and not open on Monday so we couldn’t use the steam cave like we had hoped.

Clean room-some of the furniture looked a little worn mind you with scuffs and “ dings”-did not deter from the overall comfort of the room which included a cozy gas fireplace. Great views from the little balcony access and an inviting deep soaker tub with well designed separate shower.
The wait staff in the restaurant were very friendly and the salmon dinner that we enjoyed was delicious. Just the kind of relaxing getaway that we needed.

Its an enjoyable and relaxing stay.
The resort is nested in a beautiful bay with a nice marina, where leisurely walk.
The rooms was fairly clean and tidy overall, but carpets do need more cleaning as mentioned by some reviewers.
Staff was nice.

Excellent location. Rooms, restaurants, pools, marina - well run.
Only inconvenience - the room key cards - too easy to demagnetize.
