This place is such a gem! Cute decor with many comforts of home (eg. bathrobes, lots of pillows and blankets, coffee cream etc.) The location is a short walk to restaurants, shops and the regional park, but is still so quiet and peaceful. The hosts were friendly and really helpful. The icing on the cake was Adele's breakfasts. So delicious! She really is a great cook. Thanks for such a wonderful stay.

What A Gem on Bowen Island!

Our stay at Adele‘s Bed & Breakfast was the highlight of our 10 day vacation to British Columbia. Adele and Terry are wonderful hosts and made us feel welcomed from the moment we arrived. Their attention to detail is unmatched. The cozy accommodations offer everything one could need for a peaceful and comfortable stay. We will be back!

Perfect quiet get-away with attentive hosts

Adele and Terry were splendid hosts, and the property was a lovely quiet and convenient place to get away from the city. Such a short walk from the ferry, with easy access to nice trails for hiking, a grocery store and several good restaurants.I mentioned that I wanted to do some writing, so Adele and Terry actually moved out one of the existing pieces of furniture and found a desk, desk chair and lamp for me to use. This was unexpected but much appreciated!The breakfasts served were all quite delicious, and again Adele and Terry accommodated me by adapting the menu, since I'm vegetarian. Overall, one of my best-ever stays booked through VRBO.

Perfect little spot

I stayed here with my fiancé for the weekend, Terry and Adele are such wonderful hosts! The suite was perfect, had everything we needed, and the king bed was super comfy! On top of being a very convenient location walking distance to everything in the cove, “chefy” Adele’s cooking was delightful - she makes a top notch eggs Benny and surprised us on the morning of our last day with some scones. A+ host, would absolutely stay again!

Perfect location on Bowen Island.

"We spent two nights at Adele’s B and B and found it to be very pleasant. The unit was warm and cozy and tastefully decorated. It was spotlessly clean. It was quiet and very private despite being so close to Snug Cove with its restaurants, cute shops and grocery stores."

Amazing stay and even better hosts

Terry and Adele went far above and beyond to make our stay welcoming. If you only skim this review that is the one thing I hope you take away. The property itself is very cozy and comfortable. Clean and has everything you'd need, plus the location is absolutely primo just a short hop, skip, and a jump from the ferry. Ideal for people staying on the island without a car. Adele made an amazing breakfast for our stay and they accommodated us at every turn. I highly recommend this location and these hosts.

A perfect suite with a perfect location

My partner and I had a wonderful stay on the May long weekend at Adele's BnB. It is a beautiful private ground floor suite with a lovely covered veranda, that is surrounded by lush greenery, looking across the street to the ocean. The suite was very clean, tastefully decorated, and included lots of thoughtful additions for our comfort and convenience. The king sized bed is super comfortable. The location is ideal, with beaches, parks, trails, just down the street, only a block to town shops and restaurants, and a short walk from the ferry. A big highlight was the fantastic black forest eggs benedict breakfast 'chefy' Adele made for us, it was gourmet delicious! So many great things to mention. . . surprise fresh baked yummy breakfast scones the second morning, vases of Spring flowers on the veranda and inside, the fridge contained a selection of cold buble` sodas, cream for coffee, and fresh cold water. There is also a large fresh water dispenser in the kitchen. Adele and Terry are welcoming and thoughtful hosts. Our booking and communication process was smooth and easy. Our entire experience was top notch! Thank you Adele and Terry. We will be returning.

Great spot

Hosts were very communicative, very welcoming. Best location on Bowen, no need for a car. 5 min. walk from ferry, 5 min. into town, 3 min. to Crippen Park.Exceptionslly clean and cozy. Nice and cool in unit, even on hottest days.If it's chilly in the morning, heaters in every room.Nice porch to have breakfast, watch the deer and hummingbirds. Adele's breakfasts were delicious.

Our stay was superb. Terry and Adele are at the upper echelon of hosts we have experienced. They take great care in their work and have a deep passion for making guests feel welcome. The accommodations were comfortable and had many of the necessities we needed. We enjoyed a lovely time walking the local harbour during the day, taking in local art galleries and a distillery, and enjoyed a fantastic tapas dinner. All of this in a short walking distance from their property. Terry is a masterful host, responding to questions and inquiries in short order. Adele’s breakfast was scrumptious and she even went the extra mile accommodating my gluten free diet. We had a fantastic weekend; one to remember. We are grateful for what this place offered us. Would definitely come back again.
Delicious breakfast by Adele

Lovely stay, in a fantastic location and home. Upon arrival, we were greeted by home baked treats. Adele and Terry’s place was immaculate, and we were kindly offered support at any time, to guide us on this beautiful island. A 5 minute walk to the beach (quiet midweek, this time of year) offered seal and merganser family views. Beach chairs showed up on our porch to support our beach time. Adele’s breakfast quiche, delicious and beautifully presented, was a treat to enjoy our first morning. We ate outdoors, enjoying hummingbird, stellar jay, and visits by the local deer. The porch was a welcome resting spot throughout our stay. This ranks as a favorite!
