Tom and Rosi were very welcoming on arrival. A very detailed tour of the property from Tom.

The Sphere (Luna) was great. Very cosy and clean but well equipped. We had a welcome pack of snacks waiting for us.

Roughly a $40/50 taxi from Qualicum beach which has a lot more restaurants.

    This place is magical and enchanting. We loved our stay! My daughter has been looking forward to this trip since she read about the “hanging hotel” in Nat Geo Kids magazine 7 years ago! She was finally able to go as you have to be 16 years old and it was a dream come true for her. The spheres are incredible. So unique and actually quite luxurious and comfortable. We were surprised to find our sphere decorated for my daughters birthday and a piece of birthday cake with a candle waiting inside. So thoughtful and made the experience even more special. Every sphere is provided with a really nice basket of treats- cheese, crackers, pastries,etc. The bathrooms are separate from the spheres but it’s nice that you actually have your own private bathroom assigned to your tree house. The bathrooms are really nice and have hot water and heaters. The composting toilet beneath each sphere was convenient and colored pencils are provided so guests can leave a note on the walls. The property is gorgeous and peaceful. It feels very enchanted. There are little surprises everywhere you look such as tiny fairy gardens, painted inspirational rocks tucked away, sparkling twinkle lights. We saw a lot of wildlife, including a bear! But it ran away as soon as it saw us and heard a barking dog. The owner and builder is a very nice man! Loved it there!

    What an amazing place! My friend and I spent two nights in the Melody sphere and loved every moment. The space is so well constructed and thought out, and Tom was very thorough about explaining how the sphere works. The welcome basket was amazing! Bathroom facilities are more than ample, and the peaceful lakeside setting idyllic. Just an amazing place - stay if you can!

    Room tip: Agree to bring an overnight bag for the spheres - it was easier to work out of smaller bags. If you are larger bodied, maybe talk to Tom before booking.

    Staying 2 nights at Luna was one of a kind experience. The sphere was well designed and high quality like a custom build yacht (bench seat, ceiling beams, sink cover etc... ). It was also very roomy and comfortable so we listened music and dance.

    Dedicated 3 pieces bath room was only 1 min away from the sphere. Walking with a flash light ( provided, but I brought my own ) to the bath house in middle of the night was also fun experience.

    We brought many items (hair dryer, paper towels, cooler box, usb plug etc. ) but didn't need the most of them since they are provided. It might be a good idea to bring a lint roller for quick cleaning.

    Tom and Rosie, thank you for your warm hospitality and great creation.

    How special! The spheres are a unique vacation experience, set on a lovely piece of property, hanging in a private space surrounded by trees and built with ingenuity and expert craftsmanship. They are very clean and very comfortable. You have to see them to believe them. Rosey and Tom were wonderful hosts and most definitely added to the memorable time we spent there. Thank you!

    My girlfriend and I stayed here and it was absolutely AMAZING!

    The property is beautiful, the surroundings are beautiful, the services they provide are amazing.

    I don't even know how to explain how much we loved this place - check-in was so warm and welcoming, the actual spheres are mindblowing and obviously are built with so much love, enthusiasm and skill.

    I don't have anything to say about this place other than there is a reason why I see it all the time on Instagram and on travel websites - worth every single cent and definitely worth the drive - perfect place to stop half way up the island.

    Thank you.
