OUTDOOR LOVERS B & B
A REAL Bed and Breakfast
Welcome to Outdoor Lovers Bed and Breakfast
Our Location
Outdoor Lovers Bed and Breakfast is located over-looking the historic Alberni Inlet, once the busiest port in British Columbia and the centre of the booming lumber export trade to Southern California. We are the perfect hub for exploring the East and West coast of Vancouver Island. Drive only an hour to reach the beautiful surfing beaches of Ucluelet and Tofino to the West, the quaint village of Bamfield to the south and the many attractions along the Old Island Highway to the east. At Outdoor Lovers Bed and Breakfast you’re amidst our wilderness surrounded valley and its world class hiking trails. August to October, witness the magnificent Stamp River Chinook Salmon Run. You will see Bears and Bald Eagles!

Thanks Lisa. We enjoyed your stay. Come back again sometime! Milly & Bill Dalia Gonzalez2025-01-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a beautifully kept and nicely renovated 1920 venue this place is. The twin bed room we reserved was tidy and spotless when our host showed us our accomodations. The complimentary craft soap and herbal shampoo was perfect for a relaxing shower after our journey from Burnaby. We had a great sleep with freshly laundered bedding and a quiet place. In the morning, Bill surprised us with a delicious breakfast consisting of locally sourced sausage, and Bill's own recipe for perfect waffles 👌, dressed in a blueberry & strawberry sauce and accompanied with freshly brewed coffee. Everything while having a nice chat with Milly and the other guest at his venue and enjoying the view of the inlet from the dinning area. What a lovely stay in Port Alberni in this real bed and breakfast with amazing and caring hosts. We will come back for sure next year (or before).

Don't know who TV is, but it looks a bit like trash/revenge (for what I don't know)/competitor?? review. If the name, TV, is relevant, no, we don't have TV in the rooms. Great internet access though.

Nous ressentons qu'ils mettent beaucoup d'amour dans le service aux hôtes.

Hi Arnaud. Thanks for the great review, including the 5/5 for Rooms, Service and Location. We also really appreciate the 10/10 overall rating you gave us on Booking.com for your stay. Thanks again for visiting and you're welcome back anytime. Milly & Bill Muriel Anicet2024-09-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Bel endroit supposé calme et reposant, mais...petit conseil ne franchissez pas la porte d’entrée ! Dès votre arrivée, immédiatement, on vous pointera militairement du doigt « Le tapis » où déposer vos chaussures. Ensuite, deux étages à monter pour atteindre votre chambre, alors soyez prévenu, les grosses valises sont déconseillées, les escaliers sont pentus et étroits. Vous espérez alors avoir une nuit calme et sereine, mais c'est sans compter sur le bruit incessant de la climatisation du bâtiment, qui ponctuera bêtement mais assurément, votre nuit en mode micro-réveils. Le lendemain matin, au petit-déjeuner, attention à bien attendre que votre hôte vous attribue une place. Si, comme moi, vous aviez l'idée de vous installer où bon vous semble, avec une belle vue en prime, préparez-vous à être déplacé, car c’est votre hôte qui indique les places à table. Vous serez servi avec un choix limité : Muesli bio, yaourt nature et compote de fruits. Si vous avez un petit creux et espérez du pain, il faudra le demander spécifiquement. Enfin, gardez un œil sur l'heure : le check-out est à 10h, car dès 9h43, on vous rappellera fermement en criant du bas des escaliers, que vous devez quitter votre chambre à 10H ! Et si, par malheur, vous décidez de terminer votre e-mail commencé dans votre chambre, installé sur un petit coin de canapé à côté de la porte d’entrée. Madame viendra très vite vous signifier, qu’une prise électrique se trouve à l'extérieur, sur la terrasse, pour bien vous rappeler que vous dépassez l'horaire. C'est donc avec les doigts refroidis, que je termine cet avis, en vous conseillant vivement de fuir cet endroit, plus militaire que convivial !

One hundred and nine reviews, average review score 5.0 out of five. And then there is Ms. Anicet's review score of 1. Makes you wonder! Pauline Reitzig2024-08-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My family and I had an amazing time on Vancouver Island and with Bill and Milly great hosts. The self-made food was delicious and they were always there if we needed something. Thank you!

We appreciate the great review, and you are all welcome back anytime. Milly & Bill Christina Reitzig2024-08-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wir waren zu sechst für vier Nächte in eurem sehr schönen Haus, das sehr liebevoll eingerichtet ist. Bill hat sehr leckere Gerichte für uns zubereitet und ist flexibel für Vegetarier und Veganer ☺️ Die nachhaltige und umweltfreundliche Lebensweise hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Selbst gemachte Seifen, Joghurt, Sirup, Granola, Marmelade, dies sind nur die Dinge, die wir in den vier Tagen erlebt haben. Bill versorgte uns mit zahlreichen Ausflugstipps. Milly bot auch an, dass wir unsere Wäsche waschen können. Super nett. Im Ort laufen viele Rehe herum und lassen sich auch nicht weiter stören. Alles in allem war der Aufenthalt sehr gut, wenn es nicht so weit weg wäre, würden wir auf jeden Fall wieder kommen. Ihr seid tolle sehr empfehlenswerte Gastgeber, habt vielen Dank !
