The view and quietness with the sound of waves and wildlife was amazing. We spent two days investigating the waters and beach with our grandchildren. We saw things we have never seen before even though we have grown up by the ocean. I have unbelievable pictures but they don't come close to what we actually saw. The sunrise breath taking. The kitchen was great, I made stuffing and the fixings for Easter turkey dinner. Thank you again for the fantastic stay! See you again soon :)

The suite was very well equipped, the kitchen had everything we needed. The view is gorgeous and we loved the area. The bed was very comfortable and we had a very relaxed time there. The only thing that was a little disappointing were the stairs to get to the suite. Our old knees don’t like that. I didn’t see that mentioned in the ad. Overall very lovely.

This property was perfect for a quiet getaway. It’s very comfortable and has every amenity you could want while there. The lovely little deck looks straight out to the ocean, where you can watch the sunrise and moonrise over the water. The bed is very comfy and the linens were delightfully crisp and fresh. The kitchen has all the needed appliances and cooking utensils. Overall, a great stay!

Always a great stay! Location is perfect, right out on the beach, tucked away in a quiet area surrounded by nature, but still only 15 minutes driving distance from Comox and Courtenay. The unit itself is comfortable and clean, well stocked with cookware and dishes, some snacks and Keurig cups are provided, for more just drive down to the Courtenay Country Market.Will definitely be back again, what a great area to spend a weekend relaxing away from home!

Great location for a quiet stay for a few days to get away from the city noise. We woke up with the sound of waves and enjoyed the milky way viewing at night. The apartment is well staffed. Great place!

Amazing ocean view. We watched herons everyday and were lulled by waves and seagull sounds. Lovely decor, very clean, and thoughtfully equipped, even fluffy bathrobes! Also private and quiet. Kind of equi distance from Courtenay or Comox, so easy access to many attractions. Top notch winery very nearby! A gem of a stay, and we loved it.

We really enjoyed our time at Sea Haven. The place was very clean and well appointed. The area was quiet and located a short drive to Courtenay, Comox, and many great hikes. I definitely recommend Sea Haven if you're looking for a peaceful stay on the water.

An incredible spot. Its a 6 out of 5 star. Comfy bed. Clean. The interior alone makes it a 5*. But the view of the strait and the sound of the waves were incredible - the stress melted off us! Nice waterfront to walk - saw seals and sea lions. Area has nice hiking trails. We will definitely stay here again.
