Relaxing Spa Experience

During my stay, I indulged in the spa services and it was absolutely rejuvenating. The steam room and hot tub were included in our package, making it the perfect way to unwind after a long day of exploring the island. The tranquility of the spa truly enhanced my relaxing getaway. Can't wait to return for another massage!

Really good Dining Options

I dined at the on-site restaurant and was blown away by the quality of the food. The wood-fired pizza was excellent, making for a great lunch accompanied by a craft beer. I also enjoyed a delicious prime rib dinner on Sunday night that was simply exquisite. Overall, dining here added a good gourmet touch to my stay.

Comfortable and Inviting Room

My room, the Galiano Suite, was clean and beautifully appointed with a jetted bathtub, mini fridge, and a cozy fireplace. Waking up to the stunning view of the bay from my private deck was a highlight of my stay. The attention to detail in the room's design contributed to the overall comfort and charm.

Luxurious Bathroom Amenities

I particularly enjoyed the bathroom features during my stay. Each unit seemed to come equipped with a jetted bathtub and spacious shower, ensuring a refreshing experience after a day of activities. The thick towels added a touch of luxury that made my shower feel like a spa treatment.

I had a lovely three-day escape on the Gulf Island. The one-bedroom suite we rented was comfortable and well-furnished, offering a fantastic view of Active Pass. However, I found the prices a bit high without any discounts, which took away from the overall value of our stay. The dining options were enjoyable around the island, but not at the Inn itself.

The Galiano Inn offers a beautiful and intimate setting that's perfect for a getaway, featuring stunning ocean views and spacious villas.
