If you want location, genuine kindness, great food, cleanliness, & great people...then stay here. We stayed for two nights and loved the information Roger & Shirley provided during our stay. We loved the beach walk and drives they suggested. The restaurants they directed us to were very good as well. We were very comfortable during our stay and enjoyed the... More

We stayed one night at this B&B while visiting a relative in Powell River. Although right on a 'main' road, it was very quiet, as Powell River is a small community. The water views (and they are very expansive) are right across the street and you can use the telescope in the host's livingroom to take a look at what's... More

It felt special from the minute we phoned to enquire about accommodation. We were overwhelmed to experience the extraordinary warmth of their welcome, genuine concern for our comfort, good humor and professional service at all times. We felt part of their family and that makes it one of the most special establishments we have ever stayed in during our travels.... More

Without a doubt, the most welcoming and friendliest B & B we've ever stayed at! Meticulous attention to detail and comfort. The food was outstanding and food allergies did not present a problem to the chef. Thank you so much, Roger and Shirley, for making our trip so enjoyable and memorable! More

Perfect accommodation, view, food and hosts! A pity that we could only stay one night! Roger and Shirley do their utmost to make their guests feel at home, and the excellent breakfast, conversation, and humour made our short visit one that we hope to repeat sometime in the future. More

We can't believe how strangers can make you feel so at home. B&B's can be nice and clean but to us it's the "people" that make the difference and Shirley and Roger did that. We were over for the U13 Soccer Provincials and Roger even came out to see our final game. Their home is imaculate with plenty of attention... More

Every aspect of this B&B was superb – big rooms with big private bathrooms; remarkable free supplies (razors, toothpaste and brushes, high-end soaps and shampoos and lotions…and first-aid supplies, Werther’s candies, truffles, After Eights…) AND a super-comfy bed and WiFi and…the most delightful hosts! And breakfast was fantastic. Roger is a real character and loves to banter and interact with... More

My friend came to Powell River to visit me and we decided that for part of our visit, we'd go to a local B & B and have a relaxing time off for a few days - for me it was a holiday in my own town. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The hosts were very kind and wonderful. The... More

I spent a couple of nights at the Beacon B&B. This is one of the nicest places that I have stayed. The hosts were very accomodating by providing me with local tourism information, ferry schedules in addition to Powell River's illustrious history. What a beautiful town, and if your are a runner it is great place to run with lots... More

I travel a lot as a solo woman on business and for sfety concerns I have steered towards B&Bs and always had wonderfull experiences, until this one. Hosts never gave me any peace and quiet unless I locked myself away in my room. There was no private space to sit and read or work as they hovered around as soon... More

Thank you for taking the time to review your experience. We have heard many times from the guests that the reason they do B&B is for the interaction between the hosts and themselves. We would have appreciated if you could have been so kind as to bring any concerns you were experiecing to our attention in the moment so that... More
