I am sorry but the Solaris Suite is not pet friendly.

Salish Sea B&B

The accommodations were spacious and very well equipped with separated kitchenette/dining area from living/sleeping section with great views of the Salish Sea and on bike/walking path to Sidney centre. The hostess greeted us on arrival, providing local information. We stayed a week, rented bikes and very conveniently travelled by bus to Victoria.

All We Hoped for and More!

My friend and I were looking to have a relaxing and fun short getaway. It was all that and then some. The apartment was very comfortable and clean. Shelly had left many incidentals that made it feel like home; some delicious breakfast items, charging dock, interesting library, comfortable bed and other accommodations, heated bathroom floor, a beautiful view with beach access, a lovely garden to sit and have breakfast, and the best bread ever!! She even helped us book a massage :) It was just great. We will see you again, Shelly.

Great location, wonderful host, beautiful property

This was the last leg of our BC journey, and we were very happy with the clean and cozy, beautiful, first floor loft style house, and an enchanting garden. Shelley is such a wonderful, kind, and thoughtful host! The little details were so pleasant to discover :) The bed and the bedding were super comfy and very clean (Virgo mom approved hehe). The heated floor in the bathroom was a very pleasant surprise during a quick barefoot nighttime washroom visit. My nine-year old enjoyed the beach combing and her lovely chats with Shelley. Seaside shopping area and restaurants were a quick 5 minute drive away. Overall a wonderful experience, and would definitely stay again and highly recommend the host, the property and the location! Thank you Shelley!! your visitors from LA :)

Pristine spot on the Salish Sea

This spot was lovely in every respect. The garden was carefully tended and quiet lots of birds, hummingbirds in particular, interesting artwork and a cat. Inside there was interesting artwork everywhere the supplies for breakfast were delicious and Shelly was very accommodating.

Beautiful properly, close to popular destinations

Shelley is an excellent host and her property is lovely. I wondered how the open concept and proximity to a busy street would be; it is not a problem. When the doors and windows are shut, you barely hear traffic, which slows substantially at night. The view of the sea, as well as the garden out back and front are lovely. Shelley even greeted us with the kitchen stocked breakfast items! I mentioned we are GF & DF so she found bread and yogurt we could have! What a lovely surprise that was. Parking is on sight and getting to Butchard Gardens, the butterfly conservatory and a grocery store were easy. We throughly enjoyed our stay at the Salish Sea house and would plan to stay again. Thank you!!

Perfect home base

It had all the essentials and more - very clean, well-equipped and a comfortable bed. The robes are a nice touch. The water's edge is just across the street on a private lot - a lovely way to start or end the day. I enjoyed the trail along the water, away from the road. Just a mile up the trail is Tulista Park, with an art gallery, platground, etc. Feels very private, with garden in the back. My second time there and I'm sure I'll return.

Peaceful yet spectacular retreat

What a luxury for me to stay in this beautiful and relaxing B&B! Everything here from the breakfast items provided ,the heated floor in the bathroom, and very comfortable bed has been thoughtfully selected for her guest's comfort. Shelley is a very welcoming hostess and available if needed. Of course the setting on Vancouver Island is magnificent I look forward to staying here again.

Peaceful & relaxing

Such a quiet, relaxing and peaceful getaway. Shelly was very nice and welcoming, and there was no pressure to socialize, something we appreciated as two introverts. The bed was soft and comfortable, there were dividers to offer more privacy between the sleep area and the windows, lots of seating. Loved the soaker tub! Kitchenette had basic amenities, and we were provided with fresh fruit, bread, milk and other dry goods, enough that guests can prepare basic meals if they choose to. Across the road the property goes down to the waterfront, and both myself and my husband enjoyed some relaxing hours down here. Very close to Sidney, and it's a very calm and chill town that we enjoyed exploring.
