Went for two days and was ready for a fantastic day in a secluded paradise, but that suddenly changed when we arrived. The previous post was spot on as the staff looked as if they had no idea about Pender Island and was uninterested in the guests. We arrived on the island at around noon and wanted to ask if... More

Got off the BC Ferries boat and headed to Poets Cove immediately. On route there was one sign indicating Poets Cove and even when going along the water front to the entrance of the Resort its hidden to the right and one could easily drive by with out even noticing. Once we arrived there was signage as to where to... More

Dear Visitor You are correct, directional signage on Pender Island are lacking. All highway signage is under the jurisdiction of Ministry Of Transport; thus the resort is not at liberty to add more visible directional signs from the ferry to Bedwell Harbour. Poets Cove Resort is built on a horseshoe shaped hillside with strategically placed facilities to provide a stunning,... More

This is a remarkable place! We came in by boat and were welcomed and given a beautiful room with a fireplace, wonderful deck and tremendous bath. You could sit in the bath and look at the ocean, and still be totally private. We had breakfast the next morning - food was good and I believe reasonably priced, particularly given the... More

We spent two days at Poet's Cove at the end of April. The location is outstanding and we were fortunate to have spectacular weather. The whole complex was spotless. Perhaps the cleanest resort we have stayed in. All the staff from the front desk, through servers in the lounge and restaurant, Solamon the Restaurant Manager, and the bellman were very... More

We stopped at the resort to 'refuel' at the cafe. The food was excellent. I had a (very filling) bowl of seafood chowder. Service was great. Attentive without hovering. Great atmosphere overlooking the water.

Overall it was great. Lack of experience in the dining room was unfortunate. It took us 3 hours and 20 minutes to eat dinner and it was not even busy. The cooking was great with once exception The topping if the creme brule should have been heated up so the caramel was melted

Poet's Cove is perfect for a romantic get-away. We caught the ferry from Vancouver and thankfully arrived during the day. The road to Poets cove is narrow and windy. Its very dark at night and may be difficult to find. We stayed in the lodge which was perfect for the two of us. We plan to return in the summer... More

This resort is perfect for couples looking for a quiet getaway. We chose not to upgrade to the villas or cottages, and so just stayed in the main building, "lodge rooms" and the room was perfect for us. A nice soaker tub, fireplace and beautiful view. There is a coffee maker and small fridge, so we took the advice of... More
