Frommer's Review
This venerable resort is that rare Gulf Island lodging: a place where kids and pets are welcome. On the warm eastern side of Mayne Island -- close to beaches, kayaking, and hiking -- the comfortable, unfussy cabins are a great value and come with full kitchen, deck, and barbecue; some have a fireplace. You have a choice of studio, one-, and two-bedroom cabins; one-bedroom units have ramps for wheelchair access. Blue Vista is also a great location for an active holiday, with sea kayak rentals and tours into the new Gulf Islands National Park Reserve, plus bike rentals.
Facilities:
Kayak and canoe rentals; bike rentals; laundry service

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
