My wife & I recently had an opportunity to visit our favorite getaway,"Takahashi Gardens". We had a wonderful time and witnessed one of natures most spectacular moments. A pod of Orca's came into the Inlet and displayed their hunting techniques so very close to shore...it was amazing to see them stalk a pod of Dolphins. Fortunately for the Dolphins, all... More

I visited Takahashi Gardens January 7-9 2013 with my partner. It was possibly one of the most relaxing 2 days of my life. Elaine is a wonderful, gracious host and definitely gives you privacy. We used the private hot tub at least twice a day. You won't want to get out of the bed and we loved the selection of... More

We stayed for a single night between Christmas and the New Year on a whistle stop tour of the sunshine coast. The units are spotless and have everything you could possibly want. The view of Sechelt inlet is beautiful. The owner has really set her property apart by clearly putting great thought into what guests want out of their stay.... More

If you want to relax in the lap of luxury then this is the place to go. Words cannot describe the elegance and tranquility... More

As travellers our standards are fairly high, and thanks to Elaine our second stay at Takahashi Gardens was just as wonderful as our first! As described by other reviewers, Elaine has designed all three retreat apartments thoughtfully and uniquely, as well as equipped them with everything you could ever need on a holiday retreat. The location is lovely and relaxing,... More

My wife and I spent six days at Takahashi Gardens. We found the accomodations quite pleasing. Our rooms were pleasantly situated on the waterfront, with a great view of the mountains across the bay. The owner/site operator, Elaine, was very gracious and easy to deal with. We would stay there again if we were to return to the area.

We went up to Sechelt for some much needed R&R and were lured in by the photos of Takahashi Gardens. I'm a picky traveler and what we found was better than the pictures! The views are truly amazing, hypnotic and relaxing. Elaine is terrific. She has thought about every little detail, and is a great resource on where to go,... More

This was our "end of season" weekend get-away before the colder weather sets in for the Vancouver region. We could not have chosen a more lovely, comfortable and simple gorgeous location. I can't recommemend Takahashi Gardens enough. Elaine, the proprietor, is a lovely person sincerely interested in your comfort. The UMI suite is prisine in condition and cleanliness, but it's... More
