This is a wonderful place - we used it for our family vacation- which are rare. But the home and location were so special. Susan was so considerate and in constant communication with us. We were fortunate to see whales, but besides that - beds, and kitchen area were great! Comfort and an incredible time for all of us! Love Pender Island and Shangri-la were fantastic!!

Myself and my three girlfriends thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was perfect for us, 4 bedrooms, with their own ensuite's. The view from this property is worth 1million, the description on the site is very accurate. The kitchen/dining area/living room are one big room. Well equipped and the hosts are so hospitable, willing to get whatever you may need. Everything is within a short distance, Poet’s Cove, Hope Bay, Magic Lake, the grocery store. Hope to return soon!

Pender Island Magic

The hosts: the best I have ever encountered in guest houses. Hospitable, friendly, generous, kind ... can't use enough words to describe how wonderful they were as hosts.The house and setting: Magical. The house is on a bluff overlooking the Salish Sea. We had planned a sunset picnic but saw no reason to leave. Each bedroom had an ensuite bathroom and there was plenty of room in the kitchen/dining/living room area for our group.The island: we kayaked, hiked, explored, and took a boat trip ... outdoor adventures galore. The island community is amazing and all the locals we met were friendly and great to talk to.Overall: I would do this trip again in a heart beat!

Having you as our guests was truly a gift! You were some of the most wonderful people I’ve ever had the pleasure to host — kind, warm, thoughtful, generous, and full of life. I’m so grateful for the joyful energy you brought into our home. Thank you again for inviting me on your boat tour — it was an unforgettable afternoon, and sharing that experience with you was such a treat. Time with you was always filled with laughter and good spirits. I deeply admire your passion for life and the vibrant energy you all carry. Though you’re women in your 60s and 70s, spending time with you felt like being around a group of spirited young adventurers! Your enthusiasm and zest for life are truly inspiring. You are welcome back anytime — I’d love to host you again!

- friendly host who was accommodating - the interior and exterior were very clean- lots of outdoor furniture and seating areas- large dining table that seats more than the sleeping capacity- majestic fly-bys of many large birds- orca sightings - no proper cooktop (temporary situation, single and double induction cooktops were provided which worked fine for our needs and there is a side burner on the bbq)- no common area TV- the hosts were in the unit above which we were not aware of when booking. Perhaps we missed it. Unsure if this information needs to be disclosed. In any event, it was not intrusive for us but maybe for others. - we found the interior and exterior lights to be very bright with limited ability to adjust with dimmers. This was a personal preference. A dimmer over the dining table would be nice. - overall, we had a wonderful reunion with friends in a space that accommodated everyone very comfortably.

Thank you for your thoughtful review. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your reunion with friends and appreciated the cleanliness, outdoor spaces, wildlife sightings, and the comfort of the home. We also appreciate your feedback. The temporary cooktop situation has now been resolved, and we have recently installed a full range in the suite. We’d also like to clarify that each suite has its own TV, although there is no TV in the shared dining area. Regarding the owner occupancy, this is noted in our listing description as an owner-occupied villa. However, guests have exclusive use of their entire floor, including their own private entrance, patios, living room, dining room, kitchen, and bedrooms. There are no shared guest areas, and we make every effort to respect our guests’ privacy while ensuring they have a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Thank you again for your kind words and valuable feedback. It was a pleasure hosting your group, and we hope to welcome you back to Pender Island in the future.
