Great Blue Heron Nature Reserve Tours

It was quite difficult to find and google maps has it in the wrong place so it is quite difficult to find. It’s about 25 minutes to downtown. There was a lot of security. It was pretty nice but rather small for the five of us. Sadly there were no neighbors in the other 3 properties on site. Parking would have been difficult if there were others but there weren’t. There were some cool features and it was quite modern. I especially liked the TV (I watched the Kara and Nate Canada train video!) However some main features like a towel hanging rack were not present. Overall, I enjoyed my stay here. Oh, and no blankets. I wanted to sleep on the couch but there weren’t blankets or sheets for me just pillows and comforters on the bed. That’s all!

Every single part of our experience at the Pacific Rim was truly wonderful! We stayed for a total of 3 nights at this hotel and had booked the Deluxe two Queen Bed Room! If we can give one advice, it’s that we definitely recommend a stay here. The staff, the hotel, and every other detail was carefully articulated. As you went past workers, each person said a polite “Hi/ How are you” increasing engagement and creating a welcoming environment. The restaurants, the hotel area, and all features inside were beautifully arranged, ensuring comfort and convenience. As per the rooms, every detail was so well thought. There was proper water, coffee, and other amenities obviously available and they were restocked immediately when needed! The hotel also has a messaging service where you can text hotel guest services for anything you may need, any questions you may have, or other details. This is available at anytime, 24/7! The staff is also very kind when providing anything extra for comfort. We had requested a blanket around 2:30 in the morning, and it was delivered almost immediately! Anytime we also needed extra coffee mugs or water, staff was always available to provide it. Furthermore, the rooms were very clean and well furnished to have the latest facilities. Overall, our stay was absolutely exquisite. From the rooms to the overall hotel, we will for sure be staying here every-time we return to Vancouver!

The property itself is beautiful. I've stayed here a few times and was very disappointed that my requests weren't provided. The room was incredibly noisy. Dishes and clanging outside of our room started at 7am on a Sunday morning. I can't believe I spent almost $1,000.00 and was rudely awakened by dishes. Also had requested a bathtub which is a priority for me. Nope, didn't get it, sorry it was a choice, double bed with bathtub or King bed with Shower. As my partner and I didn't want to sleep in separate beds we went for the king bed. Incredibly disappointing and not worth the money that I shelled out to stay in a nice hotel.
