“Nice home, location and privacy average.”
Booked last minute and place was available. Home is very nice, and bed comfy. Breakfast was good and they accommodated on short notice as I had to leave for ferry ride. Has a nice view of the water.

“Really nice stay”
The stay were personal, and you get great connection to the hosts. They were super helpful, and I got a free lift to the ferry. So happy to get a great breakfast as most places are not serving breakfast in Canada. Can only recommend it.

They provided us a big breakfast and lots of conversation + recommendations for travel. Bill seemed to really prioritize using natural ingredients which we appreciated.

“Very clean and the hosts are very friendly”
The house is exceptionally clean and beautifully kept, and the hosts are incredibly friendly. They recommended some wonderful places to visit during our trip, as well as a great Indian restaurant with delicious vegan options nearby. At the end of our stay, they even gifted us a handmade soap! Just a small note everybody should be aware of before booking: the bathroom is shared, and the hosts live in the house as well. Everything feels lovingly made and full of personal touches. :)

“Feels just like home!”
We were warmly welcomed into Milly and Bill's world. We immediately felt comfortable and really enjoyed having breakfast with the other guests and sharing stories. The location is quite central in Port Alberni and close to many restaurants. After almost two weeks spent between Vancouver and Vancouver Island, the beds and duvets here were probably the best we had during our stay! Bill was very kind and also showed us some nice hikes and places to stop in our drive to Tofino and some trails after we arrived there.

Highly recommend this friendly B&B for your stay on Vancouver Island. After several nights of staying in hotels, Bill & Milly's place felt like staying with family, which was delightful. Bill's local knowledge was a game changer in our enjoyment of the surrounding nature, with lots of advice and tips you won't see elsewhere. Breakfasts were delicious and a perfect start to full days of exploring the outdoors.

“Lovely accommodation and a friendly welcome in a location that actually has much to offer.”
We booked the top floor suite for the private bathroom and were impressed with the size of the room and delighted with the commanding views from the private balcony. We deliberately looked for accommodation in a homely setting to avoid the formality of a hotel and Outdoor lovers delivered and then some. Bill and Milly were excellent hosts, breakfast was lovely and welcome advice on local attractions was offered willingly. On street parking was both safe and easy in reserved bays directly outside the house. The Black bear popping up on cue at Victoria Quay where Bill suggested we look was a special bonus.

“Great homey, place to stay 2 nights or longer, provided you driving.”
The B&B is a really nice place with great views of Port Alberni. I love the nice and quiet location, but it is still a very short drive to the various restaurants in town. The breakfast provided is fantastic, at least for me, as it is healthy and freshly prepared by the host. The unit with 3 beds is up in the attic, but it has lots of space, and great views just outside your balcony. It would be a great place to stay 2 to 3 nights (or longer) as you explore the various attractions in P. Alberni, Tofino & Ucluelet. The hosts would also give great local recommendations on food as well as attractions - thanks!
