The kitchen staff in the morning were warm and attentive. Breakfast was good with adequate variety. They serve their own Kiwi jam at breakfast. The little gift shop is stocked with locally made items. It was a quiet, relaxing stay with beautiful views of the kiwi orchard and ocean beyond. An otter made his way across the orchard one morning while we were eating breakfast. There are deer, bunnies and lots of bird life. We were able to paddleboard from a nearby beach. Rooms were clean. The beds are comfortable.

The floor in our room had an odd odour. We theorized it was because they might use vinegar to clean the floors. So my suggestion would be to go over the floors again with plain water after cleaning.

The room size was sufficient, the washroom was stocked with necessities, and air conditioning was provided. Clean facilities overall. Breakfast was provided, with good, healthy options. Thank you to owner Lori and chef Peter and staff for your effort in making Kiwi Cove a pleasant place to stay! We appreciate it!

Not an issue, but just a comment the shower was squeaking even though the water wasn't warm.

Our unit was spacious and attractive. There was plenty of lounge space outside of rooms. The grounds are nicely kept and it would be easy to spend lots of time sitting outside soaking up the view. The location is very convenient to Nanaimo airport, but set in the countryside. Unfortunately, we had an early flight so could not take advantage of the regular breakfast. However, the hostess went out of her way to make up a continental breakfast for us that we could eat early in the morning before departure. A delightful English Pub called The Crow & Gate is 10 minutes away along picturesque country roads.

Nothing

The host and staff were great. We had what we needed for a comfortable stay. Also the location was very peaceful and relaxing. The breakfast provided was a bonus and was excellent. It was a great way to start the day. Also had a sample of the kiwi jam produced on site. The lodge also focused on local and environment friendly products. I would rate the stay and service as excellent and would highly recommend the lodge.

Spacious and comfortable surrounded by lovely gardens and awesome kiwi plantation. Plenty of space and excellent terrace with sea view. The fruit trees at the sea edge were laden with plums 😋

Not much. I guess that particular location, with a neighbouring timber yard and other nearby industry was slightly off putting. But Kiwi Cove is an oasis

The size of the room was exceptional and the view of the orchard and lake was really lovely. We enjoyed our walk on the grounds and the breakfast was plentiful and delicious.

The prices for hotels has become an issue. They are so high it’s becoming an issue to travel. Your lodge was lovely but still a lot of money

Location is beautiful overlooking a cove and the mountains. We were there in winter but still an excellent scene. The breakfast was a bit plain but serviceable. Staff was very friendly. Room was large and had an excellent balcony that would be great in summer. Overall a great stay, would be happy to return

Room was a bit plain and dated, could use some cozy touches.

The lady at breakfast very good. Parking free of charge and the walk to the seashore

It was advertised as housekeeping but our room not housekeeper whilst in residence. Not completely clean a lot of dust. The bed very soft and a noisy shower. We felt like caretakers as we were only residents in our second night.

The staff was wonderful. The breakfast was eggs and sausage and various bread, highlighted by the homemade kiwi jam and yogurt, which was really great. the property has a kiwi grove and is large enough to enjoy walking around. Its also on the bay, so there is some shoreline to explore. Room was big, somewhat plain, but had everything we needed including a really nice king size bed and a private balcony. Would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful setting on treed land with multiple trails to enjoy the garden and ocean views. Quiet, peaceful, serene. Friendly, helpful staff. Excellent buffet breakfast in an attractive dining room. Comfortable beds and large bedroom with balcony and view.

A v minor point but more USB and electric outlets would be helpful for charging various devices such as phones, hearing aids, iPads and so on.
