Outstanding stay ast this wonderful BnB. We were greeted the moment we arrived with friendliness and felt like we were home immediately. Our room had everything you could possibly need including fridge, microwave, utensils etc and several charging stations. The bed was very comfortable with great bedding and the bathroom was clean, safe and had nice thick towels. Our breakfast was a complete surprise and certainly got our day of travel off to the right start. The owner went so far as to personalize our breakfast which was more than appreciated. We would definitely recommend a stay here and after only one night, we wished we had more time to spend with these thoughtful hosts. We can't thank them enough!

We cannot even say enough about this place. The property is gorgeous, and the hosts are so friendly, they have answers to any questions you may have about the area, history , or dining. If you like to eat, I recommend fasting the day before. I have never had such a breakfast. Do yourself a favour and book here. Take walks. Enjoy the peace. Pet the puppies.

What a gem we found in Coles Bay Vacation Rental! We arrived here after a late night flight into Victoria Airport. Karey met us at the door and invited us into this sweet space, welcoming us and explaining where things were in the room and how to operate appliances. Our bed was super comfortable and the hot breakfast with fresh croissants were sooo yummy! What a find!
