Overall, a great resort and great get-a-way from Victoria. Food was excellent at the pub/restaurant. We would have liked more privacy between the hot tubs in the cottages - a privacy screen or something.

Loved our king room with the ocean view deck. It was warm outside so we needed to use the small fan and ceiling fan for our whole stay. The small TV was on its last legs. Dining on site was just ok. Good idea to bring snacks & drinks from home as there is a small fridge. The highlight on Pender was hiking Mount Norman.

Very nice property. Customer parking is not close to entrance and maybe difficult to access if you cannot go up an incline. A night the pathway from the parking to the entrance is not well lit. Breakfast is pricey but very good. $65.00 including tip for 2 people for eggs and bacon.

Disliked: Amenities
We’ve been here a couple of times before. The setting is absolutely gorgeous but the resort definitely needs a refresh in every way. Rooms needs to be air conditioned or have fans that work. The restaurants need to be open every day. The coffee shop needs to be open. How can you run a hotel when half your amenities are not available yet you still pay full price for the room. They were definitely understaffed like so many hotels all over. This could so easily by a 5star hotel with a little help.
