We have family on Pender Island and over the years we have stayed at a number of lodgings. We were surprised to find that this was one of the most comfortable places we have ever stayed on the island. The bed was very comfortable, the shower excellent, and there is an incredible view. We recommend this lodging without reservation.

Super clean space overlooking a beautiful harbour. We really enjoyed lounging on the deck’s reclining chairs, the bright and open living room, and the heated bathroom floor. The two food prep areas have enough of the things you need to store and prepare food. The host was also very responsive and pleasant to deal with. Thank you for having such a peaceful place to enjoy time on Pender Island.

About the host

Welcome to Shangrila!

Many years ago, my husband and I traveled from Montreal to British Columbia and discovered Pender Island almost by chance. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the breathtaking ocean views, the peaceful atmosphere, and the warmth of the island community. We knew we had found somewhere truly special.

Like many of our guests, we love traveling, photography, music, reading, and writing. We believe the most memorable journeys are not just about the places we visit, but about the moments of peace and connection we find along the way.

Over the years, Pender Island has become our own Shangrila—a place to slow down, reconnect with nature, and appreciate life's simple pleasures. It is our joy to share this beautiful corner of the island with guests from around the world.

We live on the property and are always happy to recommend our favorite hiking trails, beaches, restaurants, kayaking adventures, and hidden local gems. At the same time, we respect your privacy, and your suite is completely private with no indoor shared spaces.

We hope you'll fall in love with Pender Island just as we did.

Why they chose this property

Bedwell Harbour is one of the most beautiful and peaceful locations on Pender Island. Surrounded by calm waters, forested hills, and abundant wildlife, it's the perfect place to slow down and enjoy nature.

From Shangrila, you can watch sailboats drift through the harbour, welcome the day with spectacular sunrises, and often spot seals, otters, bald eagles, herons, and other coastal wildlife right from the property.

We're just minutes from scenic hiking trails, beautiful beaches, kayaking, local cafés, artisan studios, farmers' markets, and island restaurants, yet the property feels wonderfully quiet and secluded. It's the perfect balance of convenience and tranquility.

What makes this property unique

Shangrila is more than just an oceanfront retreat—it's a place with a remarkable story.

The property was originally created by an artist who once lived in Hawaii. He shared that he had a vivid dream of a dragon peacefully wrapped around an island. In the dream, a wise guide told him it was one of the safest and most peaceful places in the world.

Some time later, while taking a ferry to visit his parents on Vancouver Island, he caught his first glimpse of Pender Island. He immediately recognized it as the island from his dream.

Inspired by that experience, he moved to Pender Island and built this waterfront home. The winding wooden walkways through the gardens were designed to reflect the graceful shape of the dragon from his dream, and the peaceful Tea House was created as a place for quiet reflection overlooking the harbour.

Today, those beautiful gardens, the Tea House, and the winding pathways remain an important part of Shangrila's character. Whether or not you believe in dreams, many guests tell us there is something truly peaceful and special about this place.

We hope you'll feel it too.
