Westcoast oceanfront villa
THE VILLA
Wake up to views of Sturdies Bay illuminated by the sunrise and enjoy the passing ferries, sailboats, resident eagles and blue herons. If you’re lucky you’ll hear a pod of whales swim into the bay before you see them just outside your balcony. In the winter, storm watch in front of your wood burning stove and warm up with a trip to the spa for a hot stone massage or a eucalyptus steam.
Your room awaits. The bed is made, no bathroom to clean and a picture perfect view from your bedroom, living room and balcony. The west coast villa has a king bedroom, separate living/dining/kitchen areas, plus additional sleeping accommodation on a sofa bed. Dine al fresco on the large private balcony which features a wood-burning fireplace, dining table/chairs, a bar-b-q grill and nestled on one end of the deck an outdoor soaker tub. Inside is every modern comfort and convenience expected of a waterfront cottage. Enjoy the beauty of the West Coast year-round!
