Great little family winter getaway

Beautiful, conveniently located. The staff are very helpful and kind. Let us check in early as the room was ready and kindly allowed us to hang out in the lounge after our checkout while we waited for our ferry. The room was cozy and quiet with a great view. Very dog friendly. Great little family winter getaway.

Was not enough hot water for hot tub and shower. Breakfast was below average and had to go pick it up myself. Room is already so expensive.

The Galiano Ocenafront Inn was a great place to get away from busy life and enjoy beautiful Galiano. The hotel is conveniently located by the ferry terminal, but is tucked away and quiet and tranquil. The room was large and included a huge balcony with a personal hot tub, eating table and even grill area, with a nice view of the ocean and ferries coming and going. The staff were friendly and helpful and the two dining options were very nice. The room is more expensive than an average hotel, but this was a special weekend away.
