I had the wonderful opportunity of staying at this unique B&B.. The hosts Jos and Donna were great , seeing to our every need and desire, as well as entertaining with travel stories of their own. We were treated to a very filling home made bread, breakfast and muffins every morning during our 2 day visit to Victoria and the... More

One of the best B&B's we've stayed at, and we've stayed in many. Jos and Donna are interesting people, who take the time to visit with their guests, and swap stories. Their open plan home is sunny and welcoming. Situated on five wooded acres, with a big garden and many beautiful arbutus trees, the place is alive with many varieties... More

Jos and Donna are perfect hosts! My family of 8 stayed in all 3 rooms and we had a wonderful time. The room on the first floor has an ensuite bathroom, while the 2 upstairs rooms share a large bathroom and a loft sitting room. Jos and Donna make you feel right at home, and they cook a FANTASTIC breakfast!... More

Brilliant. The bedroom was small but pristine and the bathroom was large, immaculate with large bath and separate powerful shower. Breakfasts were varied and excellent for our two night stay and the muffins were delicious. The table gave us a wonderful view of the bird feeders and we saw an amazing variety of very colourful birds which had to queue... More

Jos and Donna really share their home and go "all-out" to make you feel like a member of their family. They are great resources for sight-seeing, history, restaurants and shopping--don't miss the 3-ring binder of information in their foyer. For those who appreciate a rural setting with spectacular views and a convenient location, this B&B should clearly be rated #1... More

We had the pleasure of staying at the Arbutus Hill B&B. The location is truly idyllic with many beautiful Arbutus trees around. The rooms are great, and the 2 hostesses were truly hospitable. This B&B is clearly one of the best.

A beautiful, sunny B&B with a luscious garden and birds to watch through the breakfast table window. The breakfast was as advertised - hearty and delicious, an excellent start to a day of hiking, touring Victoria or visiting Butchart gardens.

Thank you Jos & Donna! This B&B was great! Acoomadations were clean and perfect! It was easy to find and the area was very quiet. We enjoyed sitting on their back deck watching the birds and just relaxing. Jos & Donna had great information on the area and gave us great ideas on touring Victoria. Enjoyed their company immensely!

Two nights in Victoria brought us to this recommended B&B. Perfectly situated between the city and the gardens, quiet and lovely. Enjoyed wine out on the deck in the late afternoon and breakfast watching the birds in the morning. The breakfasts were excellent and tailored to everyone's special needs, likes,dislikes and schedules. Especially enjoyed the conversations and friendly atmosphere!

An outstanding B&B in a countryside location, run by Jos and Donna, who are charming hosts. The house is a stunning design, with great views and a very high standard of fittings. The breakfast was fresh and tasty.
