Hummingbird Guesthouse

Vancouver Island


With four large suites and a huge deck with its own hot tub, this modern B&B has a home-away-from-home feel. There's a shared kitchen on each of the two floors and each suite has satellite TV; one has its own sauna. For families, there's a teen-friendly game room out back. Hummingbirds in the garden are laid on free of charge.
