Truly a beautiful B&B. Very European in design and decor. The private and peaceful setting on a bluff overlooking the ocean and islands is beautiful especailly at sunset. The rooms are very large. I loved the natural stone walk in shower with skylight and cozy white robe. To add to my Gariola experience I was greeted by hummingbirds who were... More

We enjoyed our one night stay at Arbutus B&B on Gabriola Island. Located away from the 'hub' of the island, in a gorgeous forested area with beautiful views. There is a long, shared driveway leading to two homes (could use a sign pointing to which one is the B&B). The hostess was welcoming and professional. IOur room was beautifully appointed... More

What a beautiful place! Amazing views, lots of privacy and such a relaxing feel. The beds are comfy and the bathrooms or so luxurious, you feel like you're staying at a 5 star resort! Bill and Liz were exceptional hosts and the breakfast was delicious. We rented both bedrooms with another couple and they were equally cozy and comfortable...and very... More

The rooms are beautiful and modern, not your typically granny decor b&b. Loved the delicious breakfasts. The view from the hot tub was stunning. We brought our dogs and there were lots of trails nearby to walk them which was terrific. Liz was super friendly and helpful (I accidentally left some clothing in the room when we left, and she...

The Arbutus Bluff B&B is delightful. We stayed 3 nights and everything was perfect. From the comfy beds to the incredible breakfasts it was great. Plenty of privacy, and the neighbor has three wonderful Golden Retrievers that provided my wife with a doggie fix, since we had boarded our dogs. I highly recommend Arbutus Bluffs.

If you are looking for a quiet getaway where you can wake up in the morning to deer grazing outside your window this is the place. A wonderful view from the patio where you can watch sail boats on the ocean. Delicious, healthy breakfasts. Attention to detail. I would stay here again without hesitation.

Arbutus Bluff B&B is perched upon the highest point on Gabriola Island which lends to a fantastic view of the ocean and islands and beautiful sunsets! There are only two guest rooms so it is very private. The rooms are clean and cozy with amenities to make you feel at home like natural hand soaps, shampoos, conditioners, etc. The double... More

Thanks again for having my husband and I at beautiful Arbutus Bluff after our biking/canoe trip in June. The land was incredible and the view breathtaking. The stay was wonderful with a relaxing soak overlooking the bluff, fireplace and delicious breakfast. That was the best pizza ever and we sure appreciated the drive for pizza pick up! Your hospitality was... More

This trip to Arbutus Bluff was marked by a lovely hot tub at the end of the first day...unsurpassed views of sea and mountains give way to celestial vistas at night...ah-h-h! Owners Liz and Bill again went above and beyond to make my trip exceptionally enjoyable! As a result, when visiting B.C., I will undoubtedly return!

Liz was very respectful and helpful. We forgot our daughter's toy the day we left B&B. She was so kind bringing it to us to the ferry. Thank you so much.
