Poets Cove Resort & Spa

To reach Pender Island, one of the Gulf Islands between the mainland and Vancouver Island, you have to take a ferry or water taxi from Sidney, north of Victoria; you can also skipper your own boat and dock it at the 110-slip marina (with a Customs clearance checkpoint). Overlooking Bedwell Harbour and its own marina, Poets Cove comprises a 22-room lodge with 15 seaside cottages and 9 villas, all built with a contemporary Craftsman-style Pacific Northwest look and ambience. All the accommodations feature ocean or forest-and-water views, fireplaces, big bathtubs for soaking, and all the amenities of an upscale resort. You can dine on fresh Pacific Northwest cuisine at the Aurora Restaurant in the lodge, or enjoy snacks and comfort food in the lounge. Susurrus Spa offers tons of relaxation and aesthetic treatments, including those for couples.
