Independent, Pender Island hotels

"We stayed for a couple nights as we were attending a family wedding. Location was perfect, close to shopping and restaurants. The onsite restaurant was very good! Pool was great, they could cut down some of the shrubbery around the pool to alleviate the mess and allow more sunlight. Front staff was professional and friendly. Will stay again. Thank you "

"I recently had the pleasure of staying at Wessex Inn By The Sea in Cowichan Bay, British Columbia, and I must say it was an exceptional experience. From the moment I arrived, the hospitality was outstanding. The staff, particularly Sahil and Michael, were incredibly welcoming and helpful. I was pleasantly surprised when they upgraded my room to a suite at no additional cost, making my stay even more enjoyable. A special mention goes to the housekeeping lady, a newcomer to Canada from Afghanistan, who went above and beyond in ensuring my comfort during my stay. The level of service at this hotel really stood out when I realized, on my way home, that I had forgotten my wallet in the room. I immediately contacted the hotel, and they confirmed they had found it. Not only did they take the effort to send it back to me via Canada Post, but they also only charged me once I had received it – a gesture of trust and reliability that truly impressed me. Overall, my stay was very pleasant, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the warmth and professionalism shown by the staff. I highly recommend Wessex Inn By The Sea for anyone visiting Cowichan Bay!"
