    Great little hidden gem - perfect when you’re doing the Pacific Marine Circle drive! Pool was great, the view is jaw-dropping, and the Cook and Butcher restaurant in the hotel is really high quality! Hotel could use a little update, but it’s such a gem of a spot, the decor is easy to forgive.

    Quaint little hamlet in the bay with houses on stilts over the tide line, a warf with house boats, great variety of restaurants and quaint boutiques and a With boat launch, ample parking and sea wall to die for. Something for everyone.

    We enjoyed the beautiful bay, the blue skies and the marina. We definitely enjoyed a lovely lunch at the Sathian Thai food restaurant. Very good! There is free parking just north of the marinas on the bay side. Everything is within easy walking distance.

    Cowichan Bay is a great little community with great food and people. The bay itself is beautiful both day and night and offers great opportunities for spectacular photos. Definitely try the Rock Cod Cafe for seafood, they offer fresh food, a great view and awesome service.

    A busy little town right on the ocean, loved walking along the shops, a little dangerous at times as the cars park on both sides of the road and sometimes we had to venture to the road to pass people due to 6ft rule. We ordered halibut burger and halibut fish and chips from the pub and they were the best halibut we ever had, highly recommend it, their beer batter is wonderful and very crispy!

    We had beautiful sunny weather, unexpected for late November. We toured lots of colourful backroads as we followed our maps to various wineries. Not all are open this time of year but those that were gave us a fine experience. The historical center of Duncan has shops with very good inventory of sophisticated items not always found in smaller centers.

    Beautiful place, fantastic location, easy to find. It was so well laid out. It is ultra modern and so comfortable. Very high-end finishes and appliances. Lots of lovely extras as well. Book this over a luxury hotel room, which would be twice the price. You will not be disappointed. It was also very quiet, and the owner was lovely and advised us where to eat. Wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you 😊

    The view was exceptional, but found our greeting a little perfunctory, for a variety of reasons most of the restaurants were unavailable in the immediate area, it would have been helpful if this information had been shared with us when we asked for dinner recommendations. An amazing number of really neat dining opportunities within walking distance of the hotel.

    The Cube is an amazing place to stay!! Everything is beautiful, there's been so much attention to detail, it made our stay feel incredible!! The location is awesome, just outside the village of the stunning Cowichan Bay! Excellent accommodation with a personality, and Roz the owner is lovely. Can't recommend this place enough!! Will definitely return!!

    Beautiful, bright apartment, elegantly furnished, very clean, spacious, comfortable. Quality towels, kitchen utensils, fire place. Stunning views. Very quiet, intimate yet only 10 min drive to Cowichan Bay village. 15-20 to Duncan. This is the best alternative to the tired, stuffy, overpriced hotels in the area.

    The village of Cowichan Bay was unique and it was curious to watch the dragon boat racers paddling at dusk. The view from our room was excellent and the restaurant was spectacular with the freshest of ingredients. We enjoyed the pool and sitting on the deck appreciating the view.

    Great place to stay in the Cowichan Bay countryside if you're looking to get away from the city. You get the whole house to yourself and the home had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. The beds and pillows were really comfortable and the home was clean.

    Extremely clean and quiet rooms. Close to the local restaurants. I liked the huge Lighted mirror in the bathroom that had a heat function for for when it fogs up. Nice little patio to sit outside and enjoy the view.

    The motel is on the edge of a very small town. The hotel on the other end of town is much more expensive. This is a safe choice for an overnight stay while on a bike tour.
