"Clean and comfortable. Not a lot of bells and whistles, but quiet, affordable, and felt safe walking at night."

"Check in was a breeze and the front desk staff were friendly and kind. The room was clean, bed was soft and the ac unit hid any outdoor noise from highway traffic. "

"The hotel was really great, with nice staff and the pool was really great with the slide"

"We were there for a quick stay between flights. Check in was fast which was great. Check out was great too. Beds were really comfortable. The shuttle was full, we missed the first one and had to be pushy to keep our place in line when the shuttle came back around. Everybody just swarmed and pushed. That’s not the hotels fault but anyone who ran to the back of the bus to throw their luggage in was able to get on the bus before the people who waited in line. I didn’t like that. The shuttle only comes every 30 minutes so either arrange other transportation to the airport or give yourself enough time to possibly wait an hour for a shuttle."

"This hotel is in a relaxing area to go for a walk. Close to the airport. We had a water view room and the view was excellent."

"Excellent location very clean. Staff very helpful "

"Very friendly and helpful. They are presently renovating some rooms and are doing a great job. It's the only place I'll stay at in the future when I'm in the area."

"Property has a casino and is pet friendly but you can’t leave your pet in the room when you are not there, like if you want to go to the pool. Pool was fun. Free parking was a bit of a walk (5 min) but fine. Looks like it shares parking with a giant farmers market in the summer so could be difficult then. They have a small store that has single use cereal and milk, they also have a Starbucks. There’s a food court but you have to go through the casino and kids aren’t allowed on the casino floor. Walmart just up the street if you want groceries. We stayed in a one bedroom which was lovely. I don’t recall them having a breakfast that we could go to for free as a family (two adults, 8 year old, and dog)."

"I came to Poets Cove for 3 nights on a solo trip. First time visiting Pender Island and I came without a car. Poets Cove offers a shuttle bus that comes to pick travellers up from Otter Bay and brings them to the hotel. However, the bus didn't show up and I was stuck at the terminal for about 30-45 minutes. They said the bus broke down. The general manager came and picked me up and brought me to the hotel. On the way, he gave me a nice tour of the island and explained how things work on Pender Island. It was an enjoyable conversation. Heads up: There is no transit on the island, but they have "car stops" which are benches on the side of the road and locals can give you a ride wherever you want if they're going in the same direction. The hotel has its own restaurant and the food was outstanding. The restaurant staff are very accommodating and personable. I didn't find the food too expensive but expect to pay at least $30 CAD per meal. Since I came in the off-season, the cafe next door was closed. And since I didn't have a car, I couldn't really leave the hotel to try other places unless I went to a car stop. So the only place to eat was the restaurant, but they are used to having travellers eat there repeatedly over the course of their stay. I found my room to be very clean and I had a nice waterfall and a view of the marina outside of my room. I also had my own private balcony."
