Definitely had to upgrade from what Booking.com booked for us. It was the lowest quality room they had. The service and staff were excellent. After upgrading to an ocean view and balcony the bedroom and bathroom were very good size but the bed was way too hard. I had to stack up the towels to make it softer for my hips. The restaurant service was good, the chef even spiced up my tuna bowl for me. Even for October the gardens were beautiful with fire pots and comfy chairs. Nice veranda with beautiful view from the restaurant. Good happy hour menu and drinks list. Beautiful place to go to in October. Excellent resort for weddings.

Most noted was lack of signage to direct tourists to the sights outlined in the travel brochure for the area. Very heavy traffic on the highway thru the main street town. Local retailers and people we met were very nice and accommodated our queries about the area. Will visit again. Trail to Sandcut Beach was a beautiful rain forest experience. Mile 14 and 17 Mile Pub are very nice restaurants with a variety menu. Sooke Brewing Co. and Sooke Oceanside Brewery both have excellent craft brews available.

Great hiking from Aylard's Farm. A lovely view from Sooke Point and there is a short hiking trail there too leading to a splendid view point and a small beach. Port Renfrew worth visiting because of the Botany Bay and Botanical Beach. All beaches between Sooke and Port Renfrew are worth seeing. We finished our stay with the trail along the river -Sooke Potholes. Great pizza oven baked in Shirley.

Sooke is far south of the island. Lovely views and harbour. Visit to Sooke Potholes, an area on the Sooke river. In the river gorge with various natural pools to swim in. Not touristy, very friendly locals, both hospitality staff and public we met out walking. Nice eateries, but some closed Monday & Tuesday.

Sooke, township is a disgrace in town planning, ..there is none. We went into the town and did not find a nice place to stop. What a shame. this town could have been so lovely. Getting around is difficult. Walking at Whiffin Spit is lovely. So very sad to see Sooke Harbour House gone for a huge new development.

Love the harbour setting. Hiked along the Sooke Potholes.....also walked the Ed MacGregor Park walkway down to the beach area and watched several crab fisherman at work. Then out to the Whiffinspit for another nice jaunt. Bought groceries and gas. Nice little visit with relatives. Ate at the 17 Mile Pub back towards Victoria. Great setting.
