“Home comforts make this special”

Miraloma on the Cove

5 of 5 stars
Isle of Man, United Kingdom

2/2 found this review helpful

As other reviewers has said, this is a lovely hotel. It is probably more suitable to couples rather than singles or families.

The owners clearly take great pride in their hotel. - and rightly so! The gardens are beautifully maintained and inside the main hall and downstairs lounge area traditional-style furniture is featured. This is also where the continental breakfast is served each mornng.

Our room - a batchelor garden view room - was well appointed with a kitchette and a good sized balcony overlooking the gardens. The bathroom featured a walk-in shower so presumably would be suitable for a disabled person.

There is a free underground car park for guests although I guess that the crime rate is very low in this area.

What really makes this hotel special are the personal touches - the friendliness of the reception staff, the cookies and hot chocolate in the evening, even a teddy bear on the bed.

Sidney itself is a small and quaint town - population around 11,000. The town centre, which featues several restaurants as well as a number of bookshops - more per head of population than anywhere else in Canada apparently - is about a 25 minute walk away.

The BC Ferries terminal at Swartz Bay is a five minute drive away (tip - it is worth booking this in advance as we almost did not make our ferry despite being there two hours beforehand) with Victoria about 12 miles/20k away. This can be reached by the main highway or by the more scenic coastal route.

“Miraloma is gorgeous”

Boutique style B&B...very quiet and right next to the water. The service was excellent; friendly, courteous, and warm. Our room was gorgeous with a beautiful bathtub for two and a walk in shower. We stayed in a King Garden View room, the ocen view room were sold out. The price is reasonable, for what you get. Full kitchen, free fresh baked cookies, complimentary continental breakfast, newspapers, etc. I recommend Miraloma, and will be back to stay there again, and again.

“My Favorite Vacation”

Miraloma on the Cove

Sep 28, 2007
3/3 found this review helpful

We stayed in a bachelor harbour view suite. What an amazing treat! The rooms were very clean, cozy and absolutely beautiful. Fabulous view of a little cove/inlet from the rooms on a very quiet secluded street. Huge, comfy king size bed, pull out sofa bed, fireplace, mini fridge, fully stocked kitchen cupboards, beautiful tiled bathroom with seperate jetted tub and large shower. There was even a heat lamp to keep the bathroom warm! The hotel staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The lobby felt like you were in someone's home. Cozy couches, large fireplace, board games - they even served delicious cookies and hot chocolate at bedtime! The front desk has a board game/video library that you can borrow from. The price we paid for this hotel was phenomenal. It is in Sidney so it is a bit of a drive if you are wanting to do the tourist stuff in Victoria, but there are beautiful beaches and walking trails nearby, it is a very short drive from the ferry. There are lots of really nice shops and restaurants to be found in Sidney also. Be sure to check out the Thai food place! Wow! The hotel also has a hot tub, is close to Butchart Gardens and will lend you bicycles to peddle the town. Absolutely fabulous. My husband and I both feel that this hotel was the jumping point for one of the best vacations of our lives!

“Fantastic hotel”

Miraloma on the Cove

Sep 14, 2007
2/2 found this review helpful

Miraloma on the Cove completely lived up to the reviews and more. It is a really well appointed hotel in a beautiful location, it exceeded my expectations. Views of the sea were wonderful and sitting on the balcony smelling the sea air was a great holiday moment. I would recommend this hotel without reservation, the only thing 'missing' is a restaurant and Sidney is a town seemingly full of good restaurants so this is easily addressed. The Blue Peter on the marina is a good pub and worthy of a visit.

I would definitely return here.

“Great value, quiet location by the sea”

Miraloma on the Cove

Jul 30, 2007
3/3 found this review helpful

This hotel is excellent value in a very expensive hotel market. Seaside location is wonderful, 24 hour hot tub, continental breakfast, bicycles and a very friendly and accommodating staff. I can't say enough good things about this hotel - save some money by staying here and then drive into Victoria to see what you need to see. This hotel is close to Buchard Gardens as well.
