Guest Reviews

• Perrine (10/5): Un super séjour relaxant entouré de nature. - Les hôtes sont adorables, la décoration de la chambre est superbe, très calme et confortables la localisation est centrale sur l’Île, le hot tub est un gros plus avec une belle vue. Le parking qui n’est pas forcément très aisé pour une grande voiture (Dodge Grand Caravan).
• Clare (10/5): -
• Tracey (9/5): A magical forest retreat - This is an exceptional property. The room was so thoughtfully put together, and the onsen tub was just magical. We fed the chickens on the way to a soak. Everything was modern, clean, and lovely. Light snacks and breakfast food were available in the room. If we needed anything, it was done quickly. A very respectful and kind host, too!! I loved this place!! I was a tiny bit warm, but a gorgeous fan was provided promptly. I have zero complaints.
• Kim (9/5): Funky little getaway in a quiet and beautiful setting - Really cool place (loved the onsen!) and very thoughtful in terms of amenities and all the little touches. Comfortable and a very lovely setting in nature. Enjoyed the gardens - and the chickens!
• Nadine (8/5): Salt Spring getaway - Wall paint (animals, etc.) by artist. Cabin itself and setting with privacy. Tranquil garden and chickens (different spots) on our way in and out. Onsen with robes and Crocs. Snacks. Cabin access (electronic lock, no formal check-in/out, etc. Cozy blanket on couch. Comfy bed. Parking area was tight for getting in and out.
• Susan (10/5): - Everything! The room, so thoughtfully put together, such a cozy and delightful place to end a day on Salt Spring. We loved the onsen and feeding the chickens! What a perfect setting and what lovely hosts! Nothing!
• Leila (10/5): -
• Paulette (8/5): We had perfect weather for the beginning of March. - The grounds were lovely, we enjoyed the hot tub and outdoor patio
• Steven (5/5): Part of the staff were open and gracious; part presented the reverse. - Breakfast consisted of one package of bundled goods: excellent granola and a good supply of milk. The coffee makings were efficient. Despite a request for replenishment of supplies and a three hour vacant period to do so, no service was given. Dirty cups, dishes and cutlery piled up in an area short of space. No replenishment, particularly of milk was done.
• Michael (10/5): A very relaxing tucked away retreat. One of the best stays ive ever had - The lay out was lovely. The hot tub and the onsen was gorgeous trip up the hill past the chickens. Very lovely view and felt secluded and private.
• Christine (10/5): We loved our stay and would highly recommend it. - This property shows pride of ownership. The attention to details was outstanding both inside the accommodation and outside on the property. We felt very comfortable and enjoyed the amenities.
• Dianne (10/5): Peaceful, pleasant, relaxing stay in a special, well appointed suite surrounded by nature - Beautiful setting among trees and nature. Owners have created a beautiful oasis with lots of areas to explore and enjoy. Loved feeding the chickens, relaxing in the hot tub and enjoying the well appointed, spacious suite. My sister in law found it difficult to figure out the coffee maker in regards to how much coffee to use
• Charlotte (10/5): - Love our stay; the place was clean, lovely and comfortable; the host was very friendly. Would love to come back again. The breakfast was a bit simple for a B&B but not a deal breaker as there were so many breakfast options close by.
• Hanna (10/5): -
• Amanda (8/5): Lovely room but not a bed and breakfast - Lovely room, TV works, microwave and fridge excellent, lovely shower and nice and warm. Good internet. There isn’t really a breakfast. There wasnt enough milk for cereal and coffee and only supplies for 1 night although we were there for 3. No way to contact hosts. We didn’t see them till we were leaving. No cell phone reception.
• Holla (10/5): Excellent get away experience in Salt Spring - The detailed suites were planned perfectly well. The location provides privacy and quiet, yet it is very close to the town and all amenities. The warm hospitality of David and Steve is fantastic.
• Jade (10/5): Excellent! - Everything! From the booking process to the end it was fantastic. The hosts are so kind, welcoming, and helpful and make sure you have everything you need to have a wonderful stay. The room was spacious, clean, and modern and a beautiful bathroom. The bed was comfortable, hot tub with stunning views, snacks/breakfast food provided, and only a 5 minute drive from Ganges. Highly recommend! The only thing was that the AC didn't work- didn't think we'd need it but after having the heat on during the day it was a bit too hot at night 😅 not a major issue though.
• Gabriel (10/5): Great hottub - Hot tub
• Soph3281 (10/5): -

• Beverly (10/5): - The cottage is lovely and we love, love, love the onsen! Feeding the chickens is always fun, too!
• Megan (9/5): -
• Roul (10/5): Perfect peaceful stay on Salt Spring Island. - The cabin was spacious and well stocked. The breakfast included local granola which was amazing. The walking trail out the door of the cabin was a pleasant walk and the hot tub was perfect for relaxing. It was easy to check-in and I would go back to this place again.
• Michelle (10/5): We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay and hope to come back. - The property had a great vibe and the cedar hot tub was fantastic.
• Claire (6/5): attractive room. minimal bkft--Would have appreciated a host welcome & show-around.. - well decorated unusual room. modern furnishings & bathroom Comfortable bed. Host not available-not a welcoming place far from town, rather isolated Never saw the hot tub??--too rainy & cold for hottub. Breakfast inadequate: milk/juice/boxed cereals/granola.. expected more if a 4 star unit.. Why not supply fresh baking/cheese/fruit--be generous..
• Julie (10/5): Cozy stay near Ganges. - Cozy unit. Clean and quiet. Parking available.
• Noreen (10/5): Beautiful property with thoughtful touches - We loved or 2 night stay here. There are so many thoughtful features on the property, the suite is well provisioned with kitchen supplies (tea, coffee, breakfast fixings), and we appreciated the hot tub after a day of hiking and touring. The property has numerous quiet places sit, enjoy the garden or just contemplate on the deck. All was exceptional
• Catriona (10/5): - The best stay we’ve had ! The amenities, the onsen, the location - everything was perfect 🫶🏻 lovey little touches with the seasonal pumpkins and popcorn will be highly recommending this place to everyone ! everything was perfect!
• Middlemas (10/5): - We were greated on arrival by David who was both friendly and welcoming. The suite was clean, stylish and comfortable. Although we did not use them, the selection of breakfast options was impressive. The onsen, which is tucked in between the trees, was a surreal experience and was the perfect way to end the day. Feeding the chickens in the morning brought a smile. We enjoyed our stay here.
• Stuff (10/5): - The temperature was comfortable The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was immaculately clean. The towels were very soft. The coffee was great. The chocolate treat was yummy. Overall the attention to detail was superb. I loved the chickens! The onsen was something else... would recommend to others.
• Patrick (10/5): - Beautiful suite - bed is very comfortable and it feels luxurious. Good facilities, including the excellent onsen which is in such a beautiful and peaceful setting.
• Yasmeen (9/5): Excellent - Beautiful location, very well furnished suite. Very clean and thoughtfully stocked. Access to the hot tub was my only issue as it was a bit steep and uphill and slippery because of the rain
• Tomasz (10/5): Beautiful property with thoughtful touches. The onsen was such a delight! - Our suite (Number Two) was clean and well laid out and included thoughtful touches such as bath robes, various beverages, and breakfast foods. The bed was comfortable, the towels and linens were clean and soft, and the TV and sound system were excellent. The highlight of course was the cedar tub/onsen which was perfectly warm and such a delight to soak in after a long day. Oh, and go and see the chickens. Easy to locate and a short drive from the Long Harbour ferry terminal. Would definitely stay here again!
• Aimee (10/5): -
• Andrea (10/5): Perfect magical get away, not to be missed! - Hosts have anticipated every need of their guests! I’ve never had so many thoughtful amenities provided by any accommodation. No words to describe how perfect and magical this location is! Comfy bed, incredible shower, relaxing soaking pool and lovely indoor and outdoor eating spaces. Thank you! We will be back! Nothing to say here, everything was perfect!
• Andrei (10/5): Nature inspired haven - Pictures don’t do this place justice ! Incredible setting and design, in harmony with nature. If you need to escape the city and de-stress this is it. We loved the cedar onsen, sun garden, and thoughtful touches (snacks, drinks, coffee). Wish we could have stayed a few days longer :D
• graham (10/5): - Beautiful property and very spacious room. We loved the onsen and the outdoor shower.
• Heather (10/5): I would selfishly not recommend this place so that we could stay here everyday...so beautiful, clean - We loved the gardens, location, private cabin with adjoining patios and Japanese-themed hot tub in the forest. The room and fridge was stocked with everything you could need or want. The hosts were so kind and accomodating.
• Katriona (10/5): Great suite for a weekend complete with outdoor Onsen. - Steve and David were excellent hosts, very friendly and helpful but careful to give us complete privacy. The suite was lovely, clean and well designed with great attention to detail. We had no complaints
• Martina (10/5): Calm, beautiful, peaceful - Everything the whole place so was beautiful and you can tell so much thought and care goes into to this beautiful home Nothing
• Porrelli (9/5): -
• Russell (10/5): relaxation acquired - The quietness if we could have stayed longer
• Stephen (9/5): Great hosts and beautiful room. -
• Kim (10/5): Excellent stay - The room was great, we loved the Onsen and the fire pit so much too!
• Pamelight (10/5): Exceptional - Everything, they have done an amazing job with the place. Attention to details ✨️ Nothing
• Arlene (9/5): Wonderfully relaxing escape only minutes south of Ganges. - The bed was very comfortable! The bathroom was really nicely renovated -- loved the heated floor, the separate WC and the spacious shower, faucets and seat. Tasteful light fixtures throughout; super window coverings and the furniture was stylish and comfortable. The On Sen tub was wonderful -- spacious, great view of the mountains, easy to access, wonderfully designed outdoor shower hut. We booked 7mths in advance; unfortunately, it was not made clear that the name change which took place several months prior to our arrival meant that the hosts wld no longer be providing breakfast.
• Niamh (10/5): Sungate? More like FUNGATE! - The hot tub was fantastic, loved the cold plunge, the fire pit, the beautiful chickens, lots of good snacks and a very comfy bed. Couldn't ask for more. Everything was great! There was nothing negative in our experience.
• Park (10/5): Island Bliss - An exceptional experience at a peaceful, beautiful and well appointed property. Sungate is the perfect spot to unwind and relax. The hosts are fantastic people who couldn't do enough to make sure our stay was everything and more than expected. The onsen - Japanese style hot tub experience - is incredible and the cold plunge is great if you're game. The suite had everything one could need and the location was great; just five minutes away from Ganges.
• Rebecca (8/5): Beautiful and serene - The location was incredible and I loved the food and beverage options provided! We loved visiting and feeding the chickens each day :) The highlight was definitely the hot tub and cold plunge! The bed in the pull-out-couch was not great for two adults to share if you were looking at this for 4 adults!
• Mike (9/5): Fantastic spot!!! -
• Wooderson (10/5): Exceptional -
• Philip (10/5): Overall a Serene Stay at Sungate - I had a truly enjoyable stay at Sungate. The Onsen experience was relaxing, surrounded by beautiful nature that enhanced the sense of tranquility. The hosts were warm and welcoming, greeting guests with kindness and making the stay feel comfortable from start to finish. The atmosphere was peaceful, and every detail contributed to a restful and rejuvenating experience. Sungate is a great choice for anyone looking to unwind and connect with nature in a serene setting. Nothing. Property is excellent as it is.
• Palak (10/5): Exceptional -
• Cb (7/5): Good bed, poor breakfast - Clean, comfortable bed, quiet, private, nice bathroom and bulk toiletry items from the local refillery. Self -streaming options on the tv worked well. Well equipped kitchenette Breakfast offerings were very disappointing. Other than a small jar of home made granola and milk, the other breakfast items were pop tarts, instant oatmeal and mini boxed dry cereals. No fruit, no yogurt or bread or muffins, no jam or eggs. For the price per night I did expect more supplies for breakfast. Perhaps don't call it a B& Breakfast or list what is offered so people can come with their own food or choose a different place to stay.
• Glenn (10/5): Amazing place the forest hot tub was the best! -
• Joshua (9/5): A lovely location for a quiet and relaxing get away. - The suite was very nice and very clean. All the amenities were great as well! A lovely location.

• Cameron (8/5): Very good -
• Amaya (9/5): Superb -
• Tpengilly (10/5): Absolutely perfect!🤩 - Absolutely everything! We have traveled right across Canada and it’s the best stay we have had the pleasure and privilege to experience. This place is exquisite. The attention to detail, from the furnishings to the facilities, hot tub especially, is amazing. The lodge was immaculate and very comfortable, with thoughtful touches everywhere. From the fridge full of goodies to the toiletries and guests book. The owners/ hosts are so friendly and helpful. It definitely got our vote as the perfect stay. Nothing
