Karrie and Howie are wonderful hosts! Adding to that their two adorable dogs and Karrie’s amazing home made blueberry muffins and amazing breakfast - you’ll feel right at home. We had a wonderful time staying at Coles bay and will surely be back again!

Fantastic people (and dogs!), fantastic breakfast, lovely room, thoughtful amenities.

The spacious suite was very comfortable and well-appointed with full kitchen, patio, two large bedrooms, dining room, sitting room. Everything was tasteful and in good order. The host provided a home-cooked waffles, muffins, or scones each day, even though we did not expect breakfast. Very friendly atmosphere with two large poodles.
A small suggestion: provide paved access. The graveled path to the suite is rather long to carry luggage, and it is difficult to wheel a suitcase over the stones. This becomes an issue for seniors. Even the two steps with no handrail was a drawback, and I had to go over the lawn to avoid climbing stairs.

We had the best stay at Coles Bay Vacation Retreat and would, without doubt, give it 10/10!!
Karey and her husband were incredibly hospitable and the luxurious apartment was so well equipped.
It was peaceful, convenient and just a few minutes walk to a lovely beach. And to top it all we had delicious breakfasts delivered to our door.
We liked everything!

The host is absolutely wonderful. The room is cozy and comfortable. She makes a superb breakfast. Because we had a very early flight she allowed us to have an early check-in so that we could get a nap and a bath before we had to make the airport. She was so kind. This is a very special place.
For the very reasonable fee, there really couldn't be Improvement. It's a fabulous room. She's a fabulous host. The breakfast is exceptionally good. And it's 7 minutes from the airport!
10.0
It is rural and a little off the track, but their directions and a map ap got us there well. A daytime arrival is easier!
Sign at driveway identifying resort. If it was there we missed it.

OMG!!!! Where do we start...... unfortunately it was a rushed trip to catch an early ferry, but ...... starting our 20th anniversary by choosing to stay at this absolutely charming, gem of a place, with hosts that felt like our own family.... We didn't want to leave!!! I highly recommend and we will definitely be back as soon as we can:) One of our most memorable stays!!!!
That our stay there was only 1 very quick night :(

This suite-room with a private bath is clean with a very comfortable bed, a fridge, microwave, coffee bar, table and chairs. The location in a pretty, quiet neighborhood is a quick drive to the airport. The hosts are very kind, accommodating people who both made my stay everything I needed, including a home cooked breakfast.
I recommend this accommodation.

People were very friendly and welcoming. Room was top shelf. I'd stay again.

The best thing about this place is the host. She is so thoughtful and considerate and tries to think of everything to make your stay better. She bakes fresh croissants for you in the morning and brings them to your room if you do the breakfast option! In addition to an absolutely brilliant breakfast all around. This is one of the nicest country stays we've ever had.
Nothing. If someone wanted quick (under 20 minutes) and easy access to Victoria they would be frustrated because it's not in Victoria. But that's really just a matter of looking at a map. This is a wonderful stay.
