We had a wonderful stay at Poets Cove Resort. Our room was spacious, clean, private, and very comfortable, which made it easy for our family to relax and enjoy the island. The hot tub was a great feature and made the stay feel extra special. We also really enjoyed the food, and the overall atmosphere of the resort was peaceful and welcoming. We had a great time and would happily stay again.

We enjoyed our stay at Poets Cove. The food was excellent, the bed was very comfortable, pools were well maintained. The room was very warm as no A/C but once we got the fans going it was nice. The location is remote and very quiet which we liked.We took advantage of the kayak rentals and drove to some lookout spots nearby.

Had a wonderful weekend at the poets cove resort! The room is cozy and clean and has spectacular views of the harbour. The restaurant downstairs has great vibe serving delicious dinner with sunset view and live band by the water. We made good use of the well maintained tennis court and the hot tub during our stay which is such a bonus!

Beautiful property with incredible views of the marina. The sunsets were breathtaking. The restaurants on site served excellent food and the service was top notch. The pool and jacuzzi were so relaxing and the grounds are beautiful. Our room had a very comfortable bed, nice bedding and a patio with comfortable chairs to sit on with marina views. When we arrived our room was missing hand soap and tea and coffee pods but they were quick to supply us with some. It would be nice if the rooms had A/C facing the marina for really hot weather. We kept our patio door open and enjoyed the fresh ocean breezes which was perfect. We would definitely recommend this resort and we can’t wait to return!

We have really enjoyed our stays at Poets Cove. The amenities are great and the accommodations very comfortable for our family of 5. The property is very clean, however, it is showing its age and could definitely use a refresh. The living room furniture in our cabin was old and worn. Updated furniture would go a long way to improving the overall experience. You will be very happy as long as you are not expecting a 5 star property. Still the best resort of all the Gulf Islands, in my opinion.
