General Information

When it's time to leave time behind... Hummingbird Lodge B&B and SeaDrift Cottage offer the perfect answer to the perfect holiday or much desired get-a-way. Seven acres of vistas soothing to the eye, mind and spirit - a mere two-minute stroll to the ocean, to magnificent sunsets and to great beachcombing. With our own hands we have built a 5000 square foot lodge from the trees off Gabriola - many from our own property. Ten-foot ceilings on the main floor, vaulted ceilings upstairs, windows and decks everywhere. Three spacious rooms are designed for maximum comfort - private baths and decks, king beds, luxurious linens, towels and bathrobes. Massage sessions are available, and the hot tub is always open. Our aim is to provide luxury in a warm, friendly atmosphere that caters to relaxation, fun and rejuvenation.
