Guest Reviews
- Sarah (8/5): Excellent staff and space! Truly enjoyed our visit! - The ocean view was incredible! Very close walk to everything too! Would have loved more seating in the main area. It’s a family suite, but only two chairs other than the bed. Would have been nice to have a small couch or extra chairs.
- Lyle (8/5): Great place to stay and would recommend it. - Staff was super friendly and helpful. Arrived late and made it easy to check in and get to my room. Good to see the renovation happening. Made the place a bit messy but is understandable.
- DeDe M (8/5): We will more than likely stay with you again. - Was a good location for our trip. Loved having beach access! Was a bit noisy with the construction/remodeling. Barking dog in truck below our room. Harley starting up below our room.
- Brandi (9/5): We always come back and will continue to do so ♥️ - The beach access Didn’t get my waterfront room 🤣
- Nicole (8/5): - The rooms were very clean and the beds were super comfy. New owners are in the process of renovating so our bathroom was brand new whereas the rest needs some TLC. Right on the ocean so took walks on several occasions. Within walking distance of most stores and restaurants. I would stay here again No continental breakfast which would have been nice.
- Rosa (6/5): Over all good - The location was very nice. Nice beach walk and trail Room was a bit run down , looked like some mold areas just panted over. Tv could use an upgrade
- Tony (6/5): Overall good - Ocean front, clean bathroom No elevators, no complimentary breakfast, kitchen suite outdated, restaurant not open everyday
- Rebecca (6/5): - Good location Not as clean as could be, needs some updating
- Jacqueline (9/5): Very comfortable - Large rooms that were separated. Patio with view of the ocean! Kitchenette is handy.
- Clem (10/5): -
- Blessilda (3/5): -
- Carey (7/5): -
- Celine (10/5): -
- Kobi (10/5): - Very nice, but an older building. They are renovating but my room hadn’t been done yet.
- amanda (2/5): - Lighting didnt work, shower curtains were rusty, shower was dirty and there was mold throughtout the bathroom.
- Mary (8/5): Location - This hotel is in a great location. Ocean view and walking distance to shops and restaurants.
- Brian (8/5): -
- Rick (10/5): - Access to the ocean was wonderful. The room was spacious, clean and modern. The attached restaturant was a little pricey; however the food was outstanding and the service top flight. One small shortcoming was the size of the pillows (a litle small). All in all, an outstanding experience
- JAMES (4/5): - Not cleaning
- Christo (10/5): - Liked the location- perfect!
- Kendra (8/5): - The staff were amazing. The location was great for having kids and a short walk to the ocean. The room wasn’t the cleanest, little out dated. Lamps didn’t really work. The staff make up for this and it looks like they are renovating the hotel so could be upgraded sooner then later.
- Ryan (6/5): - Excellent location with the beach and swimming steps away. Easy t
- Twyla (6/5): - Staff was friendly and location was nice The property was dirty and even had used shampoo bottles opened in bathroom shower. Floors and behind nightstand had lots of dirt and dust.
- Tim (10/5): Had a great time - Didn't have breakfast but you new Italian restaurant is excellent , Great food Need a bigger parking lot
- Fernando (10/5): - Clean
- Johnathan (1/5): Absolute crap and wouldn’t trust the staff - Was dirty and one of my watches went missing Dirty and under Reno’s
- Mitch (5/5): -
- Grace (8/5): - Good location. Bathroom could benefit some maintenance and repair.
- Shaira (4/5): - The washroom smells really bad and the reference picture for the double
- anna (10/5): - For the price it’s ok
- Frank (8/5): -
- Ashley (7/5): A great place to stay if you want something affordable, central and close to the beach. - Fabulous location - right on the water and walking distance to everything in town. We especially loved the lovely restaurant - Fred's attached to the motel. The rooms are pretty basic and the bathroom could have been cleaner. The circuit in the bathroom went out when we used the blowdryer and the fridge was very noisy. It would be nice if there was some netflix, etc included with the TV as well. However, it was exactly what I expected for the price so we weren't phased.
- Elise (10/5): - Beach was awesome
- Bryan (10/5): - Had a beautiful room overlooking the ocean. Large comfortable bed. Very helpful front desk staff.
- Bailee (8/5): Clean, comfortable, great location and friendly staff. - Clean rooms, location is great, friendly staff and good wi-fi The rooms aren't super soundproof, you can hear the people talking next door.
- Iuliana (5/5): -
- Johnson (8/5): Great location and value - Very friendly staff!! , thanks Karen!!!
- Chris (8/5): -
- Michelle (10/5): Great place. Walking distance to restaurants. Staff are very friendly - It is right by the seawall. Great place for walking the dog. They have glass wine glasses and proper coffee mugs! Really comfortable pillows.
- John (6/5): Ok for short stopover, we didn't expect luxury - Very close to beach and shops Insufficient electric sockets, dark. Wiring potentially dangerous with tangled cables behind furniture, couldn't operate microwave and have light on at same time, had to tap light in bathroom to make it work. Furniture rather worn.
- Tracy (10/5): - The staff at the front desk!
- CLAUDE (6/5): un peu juste - Pour une nuit, pas de problème Les équipements étaient un peu sales
- Rafail (7/5): It could be a decent stay in colder temperature outside - It was clean and spacious Second floor room was over heated, the air conditioner was very loud , very poor sleep experience overall
- HUGO (10/5): - Great location and staff are very friendly! Nice renovations!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The motel is under renovations, so there are a few good parts (the new bathroom) and a few old and run down parts. The ocean view from the room was very nice. Front office was very helpful.
- william (6/5): - terrible!!
- Rony (8/5): - Great space for short term stay. Enjoyed the TV and the available options. The only negative is the cleanliness, especially of the bathroom. Otherwise, very central location and easy check in and check out!
- Kenny (7/5): Good -
- Julia (6/5): - A decent, basic, reasonably priced places to sleep while we were visiting family in the area
- Diana (8/5): Beautiful ocean view - Comfy beds,view of ocean ease of storing bikes in room.kitchen. walking short distance to stores. Cleaner utensils and drawers. Some utensils had rust on them. Cleaner baseboards and in corners of bathroom and room.
- Laarnie (9/5): Wonderful stay, will be coming back - Great location and very close to shopping, food, seawall/promenade. Facilities are clean and you have enough what you need for a comfortable trip to the Sunshine Coast. Parking facilities and restaurant onsite. Not really the hotel’s fault in any way: the exterior walls and windows are very thin and you can hear everything from the outside. On our first night, there was a family (staying a couple doors down from our room) fighting, yelling, and arguing outside from 2300 to 0230 in a seemingly drunken state. We could hear everything! The office is closed after hours, but we didn’t know there was an after-hours phone number. But like I said, we still enjoyed our stay, just unfortunate some people are highly inconsiderate of others. Still will be staying at the Sechelt Inn in the future.
- Adams (8/5): Made my visit to Sechellt - Typical 2storey motel setup but very clean and had refrigerator and coffee maker plus other useful items The air conditioner worked and the TV was easy to work. The front desk person was helpful in recommending good places to eat The dining room was not available the days I was there but this business has recently changed hands and is still in process.
- Bill (8/5): - Very nice room great water pressure
- Tariq (2/5): Very poor -
- Catherine (4/5): I have been staying at the Driftwwod (Sechelt Inn) for many years. For the cost of the unit in its current state of disr - Location to the beach, comfortable bed. Room 105 needs major work. The black mould on the window wall which was carefully concealed behind two chairs was not impressive! New pillows would also be an upgrade.
- Patricia (8/5): I stayed one night. I was very comfortable and enjoyed my stay. - I love the location right by the water. The hotel has just been refurbished. The bathroom was done to a high standard. Excellent wifi.
- Michelle (1/5): Bad - The location is spectacular. In the past when the sechelt inn was under the name driftwood it was a great place, I've been coming here for 10 years on my own then Another 10+ with my family as a child. It was extremely dirty. Its never been a solid 10/10 (well the location makes it that) but in the cleanliness in the past a solid 7.5 to 8 out of 10. Yesterday it was 2 out of 10 When I walked into my room cobwebs and spills all over the walls and more. It was dirty. Black long hair all over (im blonde) and there was a foul stench. The beds were very old and uncomfortable. I can list alot more. When confronting the front counter "there was nothing they could do, or switch rooms" is what I was told. although I checked in an hour early than the normal check in time and there was empty rooms. They wouldn't switch me so the cleaners could clean properly in the room I was given. My fiancé went back to talk to them and we were offered a discount. We found it was only 20 dollars for each of the two nights we stayed which in my opinion for a place that nearly charges 200 a night is unacceptable. I already got charged the original price and now I have to go through booking for the refund. Its a joke. I was told that "they are going through a bunch of renovations and staff changes, and im not the first person to complain and wont be the last" again unacceptable and a poor excuse. Just because things are going on doesn't mean that the customers should suffer in quality. The woman at the front desk also told me this morning "I can't wait for you to see the new renovations next year!" I let her know I wont be back... Until they start taking these matters seriously as she stated im not the only one to complain I would boycott the sechelt in. Which is a disappointment as it was my favprite place to stay on the coast, and it was always dependable.
- Christopher (10/5): - Great
- Michael (8/5): - Beautiful ocean front property. The hotel is older but has quite a bit of newer upgrades. Unfortunately the restaurant was opening the day we left so we didn’t get to try it.
- Wendy (7/5): I would stay there again. Very convenient for shopping and beach access. - No breakfast available. Bedroom floors were filthy. That is my only complaint.
- Tracey (10/5): Perfect - The hotel room was recently renovated, quiet and facing the water.
- Marek (8/5): - Restaurant offers great food. It was just opened. Don't look for other place.
- Tylon (2/5): - Bedbugs
- Lajos (5/5): Passable -
- HIna (8/5): - We liked the property location, very convenient location. There is playground near by and easy beach access. Staff was good and helpful. The room assigned was not good according to the price we pay. There were mosquito and not airy.
- Jules (8/5): - The building and common space was tired and in need of some TLC, but the room was newly renovated and clean. Staff were lovely.
- Karen (8/5): - The room we had worked for our purposes.
- Hamidreza (3/5): Poor -
- Bus (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kaiseer (8/5): Very good -
- Michael (8/5): - Excellent location.
- Gaylene (6/5): - Friendly staff. Clean room. Cleaning staff ran to our car with an item we'd left behind. AC didn't work. Curtain fell down when trying to open. Safety bar in bath tub came away from the wall! Very dangerous!
- Rachel (8/5): Very good -
- Joshua (2/5): Very poor -
- George (7/5): Good -
- Igor (10/5): - Good location, nice quite area.
- Irvina (8/5): Very good - No free bfast; a bit pricey, maybe because of the nice location which has an oceanview (?) It could have been better if with that expensive accommodations, there's a free bfast.
- Andrea (6/5): nice. I would consider again Id just make sure there were no party teams in the building. - nice newly renovated room. clean and beds were comfy. Right on the water The doors SLAMMED and creaked and were soooo loud at all manners of the night that was a huge sleeping issue.
- Hamed (2/5): Not suitable for a family - There was a group of people in the residence who were smoking, drinking and laughing very loudly until 4AM right behind the door of our room. We asked them few times to move to the other side they went and came back again which was not unexpected as they were so drunk. But the next day we told to the hotel staff and asked for a solution or change of our room and they said that cannot do it and if that happens again we should call the police.
- Robert (10/5): - Very clean and comfortable
- Margaret (8/5): - Front desk clerk very helpful
- Terence (2/5): - The property had changed name and was under renovation. The restaurant was closed. The bathroom plumbing was an issue. If we had known property was under renovation, we would have cancelled and booked elsewhere. Did expedia not know of this situation when we booked?
- Lorna (8/5): - Very friendly and corteous staff, especially Felicia and Karen. Karen welcomed us warmly when we checked in. Though we arrived so early before the required check in time, she gave us a room immediately by switching our booked room to another that was available. We were very tired and sleepy during our journey because we woke up so early to be able to catch our earliest ferry ride. Karen was emphatic and pro-active, and what she did is going the extra mile. Kudos, Karen! You are commendable. Our pleasant stay and excellent service extended to us made us to decide that we will stay again in this hotel every time we visit Sechelt in the future. Thank you!
- Petr (4/5): - The king bed and the location are very nice! And the front desk lady was very nice. Literally on the water front and the beach is very peaceful… The not so nice… the room was dated… very dated, we suspected some kind mold in the bathroom and woke up to silver fish bugs in the the tub… didn’t really want to use the coffee machine as it didn’t look the cleanest so didn’t want to risk it It was a one night stay so it was fine… not sure if I would stay long than that

- penny (6/5): - The staff were not very friendly. We asked for another set of towels because we had 3 adults. We were told that the housekeeping had already finished so there might not be any 'extra' towels for us. We also asked for another cup and glass but were told there were no more to spare. The staff came to our room with a glass later and said that there were no more coffee cups. When we reminded the staff that we booked the room for 3 adults the response was 'ya, it's only an extra 20$ and the rooms are only stocked for 2 people'. The rooms were outdated and the coffee maker was placed where we couldn't plug it in. The restaurant was closed while we were there so we had to travel around to find somewhere to eat (everything closes early) When we arrived there was an empty beer can and garbage along the walkway - it was still there when we left 2 nights later. The location was great but the place itself needs repairs and updating.
- Aaron (2/5): Smokey room - Room smelled horribly of cigarette smoke as soon as I walked in. I went and asked for a different room but they were fully booked. They offered a slight discount, but my room was prepaid so that didn't help. She suggested I air it out. I checked out the next morning and found a different hotel. My clothes smelled even.
- Franca (6/5): Pleasant - Location is great. The Driftwood is undergoing renovations. Our last stay was much more pleasant as we had a renovated room. The 2 previous visits were in older rooms which sure did not reflect the room price.
- Blair (3/5): Poor - Location was good Noise from renovations Staff had issues taking payment from Booking.com, tried to prevent us from leaving because of this.
- Sherry (10/5): - Perfect location to the ocean
- Melody (10/5): - Beautiful property with water front views we got to see orcas swimming near shore, the location was near shopping areas and a beautiful walking area! The staff was very helpful and friendly, the room had a kitchenette and a patio dining spot.
- Frank (10/5): - This motel is going through renovations to refresh it at the moment but was still a wonderful stay. Because of this refresh, I am not commenting on areas that are a little tired and those areas did not affect our stay. We stayed in an ocean front King room right above the restaurant atrium. The view of the beach and listening to the waves at night was so calming. The room was clean and quiet. The bathroom was beautifully renovated with stunning black fixtures including a rain shower head and shower wand, high end toilet and wonderful deep soaker bathtub. While I do wish the lighting in the bathroom was brighter, some brighter bulbs could probably fix that and honestly, it was so clean. I loved the under lighting on the mirror that provided just enough light for nighttime bathroom visits. The ladies at reception were absolute gems and gave us some fantastic restaurant recommendations. I would not hesitate to recommend this motel and it will be our go to on future trips.
