This was our very first B&B and we stayed in the North Carriage house. We were not sure what to expect, but everything was perfect The B&B has five rooms, but the two carriage house rooms attached to the house have a separate entrance from the house. The room was excellent, clean, the feather beds soft and luxurious and the... more

We stayed 3 nights at Above the Beach while on our driving tour of BC. We were well recieved by Barb and Gary who where perfect hosts (sometimes too friendly if that's possible). Our room was spacious and comfortable. Our hosts take great pride in their home and bed and breakfast which shows in their attitude towards guests. The lemon... more

The room we stayed in the the North Carriage room and it was just what we expected. Nice bed and linens, plenty of room for the short time we spent in there! Was a big warm at times, but the AC worked well, and it was August! The breakfast was wonderful both mornings we were there. I'm not exremely picky... more

First of all, in response to DrTeva's review that has the picture attached, that review is misleading. We stayed in the exact same room and the view was fantastic. Off to the left side there is a house like the picture shows, but that in no way blocks your view of the beach or the view of all of Penticton.... more

This was our second stay at the B & B, we liked it so much the first time we've made this an annual destination. I recommend staying in one of the carriage rooms. This room has a great view , you can see the beach and some of the lake while sitting up in bed drinking your coffee. A gourmet... more

My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our weekend at Above the Beach. Barb and Gary have a wonderful home. Their personable, friendly style complimented the deluxe upgrades in the Carriage House South. This room is outfitted with a wonderful, large claw-foot tub; five-star clean, crisp linens; mini gourmet kitchen; and private deck overlooking the fruit orchard and beach. Being able... more

My husband and I had such an amazing time at "Above the Beach" bed and breakfast. The owners, Gary and Barb, MADE our vacation. We felt so welcomed there and the service was unprecedented. The breakfasts were very delicious (I never thought that I'd ever be eating appetizers to my breakfast!) and we ate every breakfast on the patio enjoying... more

We stayed for 6 days and it was lovely. The Sapphire room is quite small, so I would recommend staying in the carriage house rooms - we got a tour and they are quite lovely and more private. The breakfasts were amazing - something different every morning - and HUGE, I think we each gained a few pounds! Barb and... more

Instead of the misleading shot you see on this B&B's website showing the lake, there is an enormous house that blocks all but a glimpse of the lake. See the photo I uploaded; contact me if you want a bigger view of the photo. The room was nice, but despite being labeled a "suite," it was tiny. I felt there... more
