The Beachview Retreat sets an awfully high bar for other Vancouver-area B&Bs. Julie and Eric are consummate hosts - warm and hospitable. Our guestroom - the Seymour Suite - was inviting and spotlessly clean, adding to its commanding views of the Indian Arm waterway. Fruit, cookies, and other snacks, along with tea, port and cherry, were available in the living room all day for the peckish/elegant guest. Breakfast was charmingly presented and absolutely delicious. When I went down to get coffee before breakfast (Julie sets out coffee well before breakfast for early risers), I got to talking with Julie and Eric. They are engaging, genuinely friendly people. This couldn't have been a more perfect stay. Thank you both, again, and we'll book far in advance the next time (we were lucky to find an opening this time, two days before) we come to visit.
