A spectacular oceanfront vacation home, Pender Island Sunset Retreat is located in the Southern Gulf Islands between Vancouver and Victoria in south western British Columbia, on Canada‘s west coast. Situated high on a southwest facing bluff and sheltered in a cedar grove, Sunset Retreat boasts the tranquility of the forest and the warmth of the sun, all the while offering panoramic views of the ocean, islands and surrounding mountains.
The perfect retreat for visitors seeking the warmth and peacefulness of beautiful Pender Island, Sunset Retreat can accommodate small groups, families, or serve as a romantic weekend get-away.
Nestled in a forest of majestic cedars, this beautiful location is abundant with wildlife--deer, bald eagles, herons, sea lions, otter, orca whales, and seabirds abound. The calm protected waters are perfect for canoeing or kayaking and you will watch passing boats and marine life from the deck of this privately owned vacation home.
Architecturally designed, 2400 square foot Sunset Retreat was built to maximize the breathtaking view from all the major rooms and features a huge ocean side sun deck that runs the length of the upper level of the house. With a south western exposure, the deck is a great place for soaking up the sun and dining outdoors. There is also a sundeck off the lower level master bedroom where you can relax with your morning coffee as you watch the Orca Whales and seals cavort in the ocean below while eagles and ravens soar above.
Sunset Retreat features a spacious sun-filled open plan living/dining/kitchen area and is equipped with comfortable furniture in the living room along with a TV, stereo, CD player and DVD player and a dining table that seats up to eight. There is a fully-equipped kitchen, and for your convenience, a washer and dryer. High Speed wireless internet is availabe so bring along your laptop! In the lower level games room there is a billiard table and dart board as well as television and DVD player.
Enjoy this home's unique, west coast style featuring wood beamed ceilings and a dramatic floor to ceiling rock faced wood burning fireplace. In the winter months, a cozy fire and a good book will provide welcome relaxation while you watch the ever changing maritime scenery.
With four tastefully furnished bedrooms and two full bathrooms, Sunset Retreat comfortably accommodates eight people with one queen bed, two double beds and two twin beds. Two bedrooms are located on the water side of the house and offer spectacular water and island views. All the beds have puffy duvets--perfect if you want to cozy up in bed and linger over your morning coffee as you gaze out at the view and watch the seals, otters and whales frolic in the water below.
Even the cook won't object to preparing meals as the view from the kitchen is superb. The fully equipped oak kitchen has everything needed to prepare a simple snack or a sit down dinner for eight. A gas barbeque on the deck is available for you to grill up your Catch of the Day. Face the ocean and linger over a delicious dinner at the patio table on the deck or indoors at the dining table. Whatever you pleasure, you will savour the view along with your meal.
After dinner, settle into a cozy corner by the crackling fire and escape into a good book or retreat to the games room to shoot some pool or a take in a challenging game of darts. Perhaps you will retire to the deck with a glass of wine and toast the glorious sunset that signals the end of another perfect day.
Pender Island offers something for everyone, so what ever your pleasure, you will find it all at Sunset Retreat where you will take home fond memories that will last for a lifetime.
