I thought I had booked a 2 bedroom hotel suite, and was surprised to find that we had an entire 3 bedroom house! Check-in was fast and friendly. The house was very roomy with a full kitchen, laundry, 3 good size bedrooms (1 king and 2 queen), 2 full bathrooms, comfy living room with fireplace and dining. It looked recently renovated and very clean. Beds were comfortable and the sheets were very soft. The only CONS were the towels could be replaced and the main bedroom was quite loud in the morning with traffic, as it faced onto Hwy 1 - and there were only 2 coffee pods, which was puzzling since the placed slept 6 people. Overall, a WONDERFUL stay!

The Sea View Cottage was perfect. Suhail was a terrific help and his customer service skills were outstanding. I highly recommend the Buccaneer Inn. It is 3 mins from the ferry terminal and a 5 minute walk to a great pub/restaurant on the water. The beds were excellent, the living room was extremely comfortable and the house itself was quite large! Thank you!!

Rooms are large. The two Queen Bed with kitchenette had the two beds at the back in a bedroom. Very comfortable beds with comfy cozy bedding. Clean stocked bathroom. Living room/ dining area. Kitchenette was convenient however utensils, pots, etc could use a refresh. One burner didn't work. Freezer compartment on fridge iced up. Although across from water not particularly scenic / limited walking path. Convenient location for getting on highway and going towards downtown Nanaimo or to scenic routes north.

On the positive, mattresses were comfortable and made very nicely. Kitchen well equipped. On the less positive, If you are a light sleeper, don't select the bedroom facing the street, feels like cars are driving by in the same room. We had 5 guests but the dining room offered only 3 chairs. I wouldn't recommend turning on the fans, as the top of the blades were very dusty. Housekeeping only does surface cleaning. Pleasant stay overall. Would recommend to others.

This was a very convenient stay close to the ferry terminal for our early morning ferry. While the room was scrupulously clean, and the amenities were very good in that there were good soaps, nice towels, etc. the one major drawback was that the room was barely bigger than the bed. Had it been just that little bit bigger it would’ve gotten five stars all across the board.

Note that the property is pretty old, so you will sleep in smells of mold/old wood/old sewage system etc for the night. Not too strong tho, tolerable considering the price and location. Otherwise the place was fine. Spacious room, helpful and friendly staff, 3 min drive away from Departure Bay, nice Harbour view, quiet, etc.
