An Oasis

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Apr 15, 2015
We arrived on a late flight to Vancouver airport which was yet further delayed and did not get to the Dockside Retreat until past midnight. Even so, we were warmly welcomed by Daphne which was most appreciated after the long trip and what a delight the Sunrise suite was - spacious, tastefully and comfortably decorated with a fire-place and a cozy sitting area. Fresh muffins and other edible treats in a well stocked kitchenette was perfect for those jet lagged moments. We felt like treasured guests at a beautiful home. We awoke from a restful sleep, attributed to the comfy bed, to a tranquil and beautiful view over the inlet.
Just sorry we didn't stay longer and will miss Lola, the resident adorable canine. Really the best B&B I have stayed at and beyond expectations.

We have been going to a B&B in Port Moody for years but this time it was booked so we took a chance with The Dockside. Dockside had a lot to live up to because of how fond we were of our usual B&B.....will it did and then some. The owner and host was so welcoming and authentic!

The suite we stayed in felt like a luxury hotel suite but with more warmth and coziness. Every detail was looked after. The suite had a wonderful sun room that we had our coffee in the morning and read our books. Hot tub and heated swimming pool. Sweeping views of the Burrard inlet. Crazy comfortable bed and linens. A veritable cornucopia of breakfast items of high quality.

We booked three days but wanted to stay more but alas she was booked. We left feeling a little guilty because we don't think we will be returning.....to our usual B&B.

We would defineately recommend The Dockside Retreat and will be going back ourselves soon.

We visited Vancouver from Australia in Sept 2014. From the time we began our booking process with Daphne until we left the whole experience was faultless and stress free. Port Moody is a really pleasant part of Vancouver and within easy reach of the endless Vancouver sights. The accomodation and hospitality were amazing - the rooms were spacious and beautifully outfitted and Daphne could not have been a more attentive hostess. She made us feel very welcome and the provisions she supplied were incredible - muffins, cakes, Canadian wine, cheese and biscuits and a really huge range of breakfast cereals! We cannot recommend this accomodation highly enough!

Room tip: Both rooms are beautiful, with access to the huge patio and hot tub. Both look over the bay.

We stayed at Dockside the weekend of our wedding, which was at Old Orchard Hall. Our stay here completed our perfect weekend! Daphne was warm, accommodating, and made us feel right at home! The suites are beautiful, complete with a patio and hot tub overlooking the water. Daphne's attention to detail made us feel so special, from fancy soap to chocolate on the bed. Recommended highly!!

We stayed 2 nights here and we were bowled over by the setting and the attention to detail, the generosity and the hospitality of Daphne, our landlady. Cannot think if one thing that would have made out stay more comfortable. We were even able to host a small party for friends, for which Daphne provided (gratis and in requested) nibbles. A fantastic place to stay- but you might not want to leave.

We booked Dockside retreat for our wedding night as well as the nights before and after, since it was close to our venue. It was a great choice! In the kitchen we found a bottle of wine, excellent pastries, chocolates, plenty of coffee to drink on the patio and much more. Daphne was an excellent host and left us a beautiful bouquet of flowers when she found out we were there for our wedding. Her husband and son- sorry I forgot their names!- we also very hospitable and set us up to use their kayaks to tour the inlet. There is also an outdoor hot tub overlooking the water, comfy sitting room and big, cozy bed, robes for each of us... My only regret is that we didn't get to spend enough time here since we were running wedding errands all weekend.We will definitely be back soon for a mini-retreat. Highly recommended! Thanks a lot!
