My husband and I stayed at this resort in late May of this year. We were very dissapointed that both the pool and hot tub were broken for our romantic weekend and we did not find out until we got there, and we were offered no discount because of this. We stayed on the main floor by the breakfast area (Mountainview Room) and it was very noisy, so maybe book an upper floor room. It is a really cool location, incredible view, but the owner needs to put some money into some patio furniture, fix the patio doors, put some flowers in the overgrown planters, put in a gas fireplace we could use, and to keep it cleaner. The windows were too filthy in our room to see out of, as well as the common kitchen area (especially the utensils and glasses and in the drawers). I was not sure our rug had been vacuumed, to be honest, before we checked in. I would return for those changes, and pay accordingly for the view with some true luxury.

I recently spent a long weekend at the Mountainside Luxury Resort. What a wonderful experience. It is a small bed and breakfast with very personal care, thanks to the house manager, Victoria. She ensured every detail of our stay was perfect.

Mountainside is near the top of Mt. Tolmie and the view from my spacious private deck was amazing. I had a 180 degree view of Victoria, the harbor, mountains on one side and hills on the other. The first day I arrived, I spent most of the day lounging on that deck, wine glass in hand, taking in that glorious view, watching the cruise ships come and go in the harbor.

The entire house was clean and quiet. The king-sized bed was so luxurious I never moved once I got in it. It's like sleeping on a cloud. Perfect for a relaxing weekend.

I would, without hesitation, recommend Mountainside Luxury Resort for anyone travelling to Victora for any reason. I would particularly urge anyone wanting a romantic retreat to choose Mountainside. You will never want to leave!

Mountainside is the best place I have ever stayed. The staff are very friendly and strive to make your vacation the best. The hot tub and pool are awesome. They overlook the views of the mountains and the water. You couldn't get a better view.
Breakfast and coffee are always prepared first thing in the morning. You can enjoy a bowl of warm oatmeal to danish or bagels.
The beds are so comfortable, you will never want to leave it. You feel like you are off to dreamland in the clouds. There are nice jaccuzzi tubs in every room for that unwinding relaxation some of us need after a day checking out the sights.
You can bring your own snacks and make yourself a nice lunch to take on a picnic up the hill at the park. The staff are willing to help find anything you are looking for and even willing to map it out for you.
You have internet access for those who still on vacation, can't seem to get away from work. There is also a great board room - complete with a fireplace - for the best meeting place.
I would highly recommend a stay here. I had a wonderful and relaxing time. I will definately be going back. The only thing this place is missing is you....

This is a fantastic place to stay. It has great views on mount tolmie, its in a safe and quiet area. The hot tubs are very nice touch and the feather mattress is the best nights sleep ever. The balcony is a great place to relax and watch the sunsets. This place is great for honeymooners and couples alike. However do not expect too much. It could do with a few touches here and there. Some of the electrical fittings in the room are dodgy, the patio door needs lubing, the breakfasts need a bit more imagination (3 cereals, some fruits, breads, are all thats available), could do with a TV in the lounge area to make it more sociable. If Claire is your hostess, shes helpful, but don't expect to get on the internet as shes always playing games :-). This is a really nice place, but a few little touches could go a long way. Either that or get down the gym to move that patio door.
