"Anniversary weekend."
2024-12-02
We went to the west coast to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary as we were married out there. It was a lovely weekend and the LBLR was a good choice to stay with our dogs. The room is comfortable and easily accessible on the ground level so we were not having to walk up and down stairs or take elevators with the dogs. The restaurant (we only ate breakfasts there) was good value for money and has great beach views. I think the upcoming closure for maintenance etc. will be good as the rooms and eating area is showing a bit of wear, but still a great spot to stay.
"One of the best “experience” hotels we’ve stayed in"
2024-10-29
We stayed here for 3 nights as part of a 14 day road-trip from Ireland and all I can say is that it was absolutely amazing. The staff were all so welcoming, friendly and attentive. We stayed in room 313 which was on the top floor overlooking the beach with a balcony. Truth be told, the hotel was so good we didn’t venture far over the 3 days, instead opting to just “relax” at the hotel walking the beach or sitting outside at the gas fires taking in the ambience and the surfers catching the waves. The food and service in the restaurant was amazing, I would even go so far to say it was the best food we’ve had in a long time at a hotel! If having food at the hotel, make sure you book a table at the restaurant before 6pm and maybe even arrive a little early. They will not reserve the window seats, but to get the best view of the sunset over the pacific - trust me, it’s where you want to be sitting. Cocktails were also very good. If getting a snack during the day you can get it at the Surf Club which is a few steps from the main building. After dinner we just retired to the bedroom with the gas fires going, patio doors open and enjoying a bottle of wine while listening to the waves crash on the beach. We didn’t do breakfast at the hotel any of the mornings as we wanted something “light” opting instead for the delights from the cafe & bakery Tofitian just a few minutes up the road. As an “experience”, it was hands down one of the best hotels I’ve visited in Canada/US. The team should be very proud.
"A Wonderful Place to Stay"
2024-11-28
We had been planning to stay somewhere on the West Coast of the Island for some time, and are very glad we chose Long Beach Lodge Resort...it's a wonderful, magical place to enjoy the beauty of our paradise of Vancouver Island! Unfortunately, my wife took ill and we had to cut our stay short. Our thanks to Ekaterina at the front desk for understanding, and we will be returning in the future when everything is better once again. Thank you most sincerely...
