Just a great experience being a tourist in our own town. Great fun! We loved the hot tub. We loved how quiet it was - yet the staff was very receptive. We can’t plug this place enough for locals. I think it should be a general experience for those of us who only ever see SWR from the outside.

We stayed in a two bedroom w additional pull out sofa bed which was actually quite comfortable. We had a kitchen and view out of the living room window of the lake from our living room. We were 4 people, it might be in considered a tad small if 6 adults….. Kitchen included a full stove, fridge, microwave and dishwasher so we were set.

Staying in May we found it lovely and quiet.

We have stayed at the Summerland Resort every September for years and appreciate the ambiance and peacefulness of our two bedroom two bathroom suite on the well-treed quiet side. We do not recommend the units which are called hillside view but are directly overlooking the parking lot. The Front Desk tries very hard to accommodate special requests.

I don't usually spend time writing reviews, my thought is you get what you pay for. But this was way better than expected! We stayed 3 nights in different parts of British Columbia, and this was the least expensive hotel we stayed at, but it was by far the nicest! The staff is friendly, everything is well maintained and clean. The area is beautiful!

Very nice property with large well appointed suites. Good sized pool and two hot tubs. There is a bistro on site for great coffee, fresh made bakery items and fresh sandwiches. Location is great, right on the water with a small beach and nice trails. Walking into town or to any wineries though involves a long uphill climb. Bikes are available but a car or taxi is recommended for most excursions. There is a great casual restaurant that is not affiliated but next to the property. The food there is excellent, well priced and the service superb!

Perfect winter getaway. Stayed in a kitchen unit and it was very well stocked with sharp knives and a dishwasher. Views of okanagan lake were amazing from our suite. The coffee shop in the lobby had great breakfast, snacks and lunch menu. There’s a really nice pub/restaurant next door too. Access to the beach and boardwalk were right out front. VERY clean resort. Would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful stay at a lake view room in Summerland. 5 Star as far as we are concerned. Very helpful and friendly members of the care team! Our suite included a well equipped kitchen which allowed us to save money by cooking breakfast and some meals in our room. Will be back again soon!

It was our first time in Kelowna and we have no idea where to stay, which are to go to with so many choices! We saw Summerland on 3rd party websites, the price is good but when I checked their brand website they even have a great offer 2+1 so we ended up booking directly via phone. I spoke to Karla who was very patient with all my questions, she put me on hold when she has a guests which was fine and came back to me and very patient answering my questions. On arrival, we were checked in by Micah, nice guy too, he also lent us a laptop charger for the whole stay as my husband needs it. We looked for shops that could sell us a charger but none in Walmart where we stopped on the way to the resort. Karla also asked what type of wine do we prefer which was a very nice touch to get a cold wine on arrival. I chose White and it was sooo good that I asked to buy on departure. We also asked for late check out as I was cooking and not enough time to clean up and they granted us our request :). By the way, the kitchen is fully equipped! only thing missing was a peeler, but it was manageable with the knife. I cooked everyday, oven, stove top, we did not use microwave so I did not try that and used the dishwasher also. Very convenient and clean and nice utensils and plates, pots and pans. Very homey, can see a long term stay in the Studio. How we wish we booked the lakefront view. On departure, as I loved the white wine, I asked to buy it and Flo from reception just gave it for us free! Thank you so much for a short but relaxing stay! We were driving all over Kelowna, made a look from downtown Kelowna to Vernon and back to Summerland. We are glad, we stayed here for its price and location! Unbeatable! We even wen to Oosoyos on our way back to Vancouver and top choice will be this resort on our next stay!. Thank you once again.

The "date night" package with a bottle of wine, dinner and breakfast was perfect for our getaway. We didn't travel far--just needed a couple of nights out of the house to relax. It was much appreciated that the hot tub was still open. We enjoyed the food brought in from Flambe At Home in Summerland, especially that there were vegan options. The staff were very friendly, helpful and responsive. A Tesla charger in the underground parking was icing on the cake.

We came to the resort looking to get away from the city to enjoy some quiet time. We are so happy we chose Summerland Resort, our room was spacious and spotless, with great décor and crisp bed sheets with a great view of the lake. The staff was attentive and friendly. I would highly recommend staying here, however if you are a foodie, be aware, there is only one restaurant in the resort and although the food and service are good, your choices are limited. We drove to Penticton for dinner which was about a 15-minute drive, not long at all and we were pleased we did as we found an excellent restaurant. Also, as a wine lover, I appreciated the hotel having a free wine tasting on Friday evening, that was a nice touch! All in all, we were happy with our stay and would definitely come back!

Thank you for the detailed review... it helpful for the team here and for people checking out the SWR. We are very lucky to not only have Shaughnessy's and the Bistro, but great restaurants close by. Sociale in Penticton has become a favourite- try it next time you are here. Cheers.

I know that they have kids programs that run through out each day in July and August. 5 year olds are just fine with them. Activities vary daily. They offer a schedule at the Front Desk so you can refer to that to find out which program she would like to go to. Hope that helps!
