Nice quiet cabin
August 20, 2014We rode there on an island bike tour, easy ride from ferry. Small cabin with just the basics. Clean and neat, all we needed for a good price considering the islands are expensive. We would stay there again.

Would never stay again
August 20, 2014Way too overpriced. The owner is unstable and accused us of things we didn't do. The bed was uncomfortable and the sheets and towels smelled mouldy. The rooms were freezing and the baseboard heaters didn't work.

Comfortable cabin
August 20, 2014As part of a bike tour of the islands, my husband and I spent one night in the Hummingbird Cabin. Although it is the smallest of the cabins, it had all we needed. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was clean, the kitchen had all the basics. There was a small table plus chairs in addition to two comfortable chairs... more

Mayne Island
May 27, 2014This property cannot be called a resort. Accommodation is not modern, but it was quiet. The larger duplex cabins have a number of stairs to climb to the front door, so if you have some mobility issues I don't recommend them. Cell reception can be sketchy, so if your phone does not work you could use the Telus payphone for... more

Great family location
February 23, 2014I recently stayed at the Blue Vista Resort while visiting the island on business. I would like to return with some family and friends. As other reviewers have stated, the suites not modern but are well-equipped. The fireplace ready and waiting for us when we arrived made for a lovely evening enjoying the living room. My bed was comfortable and... more

Excellent location, the is,and is beautiful with plenty of things to do and beaches to explore.
The lodges have everything you need, they may not be modern but everything works as it should.
If there's something you don't have or you are unsure about you can easily just ask and they'll help

We'll be Back
May 10, 2013
We stayed in the Blue Heron cabin for a birthday weekend away. The cabin was very clean and well equipped. It was peaceful and just the break we were hoping for. Short walk to the beach.
The owner had a family emergency and had to leave but instead of cancelling our reservation she made sure we had everything we needed...

Cute and Cozy, all We Needed
May 05, 2013Stayed Thanksgiving weekend. There were five of us altogether and the little cottage in a half duplex suited us well. I think we were in a Arbutus cottage. There were two bedrooms, one 4 piece bathroom, a living room with a pull-out sofa and a cute kitchen that was well stocked and a cozy living room with a small tv... more

You saved our getaway
September 06, 2012
After a mishap at where we were booked to stay we contacted the owner of the Blue Vista (way too early in the morning) and she arranged to meet us at the cottages to check us in. She was so gracious and understanding of our situation.
The cottages are a little home away from home in regards to everything you...

Exactly what I was looking for
January 29, 2012I came to Mayne looking for a quiet, out-of-the-way, deep-in-the-winter retreat and this is exactly what I found. The cabin was cozy, with a lovely wood fireplace to ward off the winter storm. I don't know about nearby amenities because I wasn't looking for them; I came primarily to be left to my own for a few days and that's... more

January 07, 2012Highly recommended: my husband and I stayed in this resort on New Year's Eve and had a wonderful time in our bright, warm, cozy and spotless little cabin. The bed and pillows were very comfortable, which was a definite plus as we both have back problems. The cabin was equipped with everything that we needed to make our stay enjoyable... more

Not so Quiet - met basic requirements
October 30, 2011I stayed at this resort in July. When I booked my 3 night stay, I explained to the owner that I would be travelling alone and I was looking for peace and quiet. My reservation confirmation from the Blue Vista describes it as "A small cottage resort that provides a peaceful getaway for couples, singles, families and small groups looking... more

Best for kids, and families, not really a quiet retreat
August 01, 2011
The cabin is lovely, we had a nice deck and enjoyed the morning sun. There is a playground area in the common space and it was pretty quiet at first.
We had two groups of families with lots of kids who had the run of the common area so not quite so quiet.
We managed to find quiet times by...

Excellent Spot
July 11, 2011We rented one of the studio cottages in August 2010 and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The owners are very friendly and helpful, the cottages are very clean and have everything you need, including a kitchenette and porch. The prices are very reasonable for the service and amenities. It is a short walk from the resort to the beach.

My family would move in
March 28, 2011Between the Blue Vista, The Wild Fennel and Linda's Bakery, I had to rip my kids off the island. This place is a a total breath of fresh air! Our cottage was spotlessly maintained and had a handy kitchenette. We got stuck missing our Ferry (which is a bit tricky to time sometimes...) Carmen was kind and really helpful. The... more

Cute cottages, Clean rooms
June 04, 2010The cottages are really cute. The rooms are very clean. We had a nice fireplace in our cottage. The showers are awesome (very strong power) but we were the only ones at the resort one day yet ran out of hot water. The cottages also have kitchens, which is important because there are only two eateries on the island. There... more
