Property was very clean and had lots of amenities. Very close to lots of good hikes and the bay was great for kayaking in the evening when the tide was in. Laura and John had lots of great recommendations for things to do as well.
This place was amazing for the other half of our family for the weekend. The host showed us around in person which was so kind and helpful. The place is beautiful and everything was clean. We appreciated their responsiveness and flexibility with our group needs. Would definitely recommend!
We really enjoyed our stay and found Laura and Johnâs suite was a great home base. The waterfront, canoe and heater on the patio were family highlights. The suite was very clean and modern, several lovely touches to make the stay comfortable.
This is a beautiful place, and the cottage, attached on one side to the owner's home but completely private, is spacious, very well-equipped, and the host is very helpful. Sechelt with shopping is close. We used the cottage as a base for hiking the many nearby parks, but it also provides kayaks, canoe and rowboat for trips down the inlet.
The property is wonderful and very clean, and the hosts are very thoughtful. The back deck table and bbq are great for vacation cooking. The shallow waters during high tide make the water extremely warm. The paddle board was our favourite, and we floated around endlessly and often ended up swimming even in the evening. Thanks for a great vacation!
We enjoyed our stay at the Tidal Dance. It was quiet and secluded suite and had great access to the water. There were hikes nearby and we were able to paddleboard everyday. It was clean and well-stocked for cooking.
Laura was wonderful from the moment we arrived- with homemade sweetâs waiting for us.
The property was exceptionally clean, with very comfortable furniture and a great layout for guests.
Tidal Dance is so quiet and peaceful- weâll definitely be back.
Laura and John were amazing hosts and very responsive to any request we had. They were very helpful with lots of information about the whole Sunshine Coast.
The location is perfect for families to get on the water in a safe environment. The inlet is beautiful and great for swimming. The Canoe, Kayak and SUP were a bonus!
Had a lovey time at Tidal Dance! This property is literally cleaner than some 5 star hotels I've stayed at. You really get the sense that Laura and John have put a lot of effort and care into their home and its reflected in the stay. Thank you so much for the peaceful get away and for the delish welcome muffins!
This is a great location for exploring the nearby coastline, including Smugglers Cove Provincial Marine Park, by kayak! Spectacular paddling! Note that you can only launch or land during the higher half of the tide cycle so need to plan accordingly, and you do need to carry the boats downs a pretty steep (but well maintained and totally doable) path (unless you use the boat the hosts provide). There's a very nice spot to both store the boats and hang out down by the water. Super quiet and clean, well maintained suite.
Thanks John and Laura for renting your beautiful property to us. We enjoyed using the SUP, kayak, and canoe to paddle around. Your unit is well equipped and set up. This was an amazing holiday for us as a family.
Laura and John are excellent hosts. Their beautifully renovated suite overlooks the private Secret Cove. The space is exceptionally clean and well equipt for a family to enjoy a quiet and relaxing stay with exclusive access to the cove. My children remarked their best sleep ever on the bunk beds. Laura gave wonderful advice on what to see locally including hikes, food, local shopping and exploring the coast and islands- via water taxi. Thank you Laura and John for making our family holiday relaxing and memorable. All the best.
It is a great place facing a sea inlet. At high tide you can paddle out to the sea or even have a swim right next to the property. The suite is very clean and well equipped with everything you need. The bed in the main bedroom is super soft. We enjoyed grill dinners on the deck facing the inlet. It is a few minutes drive away from a beautiful walk to the Smuggler's Cove or a water taxi going to the Buccaneer Bay beach on Thormanby Islands. Laura and her husband were very gracious hosts who responded to all requests and provided good pointers about things to do.
We had an amazing stay at Tidal dance at Half Moon Bay! Laura and John were great hosts. Laura gave us a quick tour/orientation to the cottage and was very helpful in suggesting hikes and other activities during our stay. Laura was quick to answer any questions we had. We took the canoe out several times and saw some otters in the cove. We hiked a lot and enjoyed Smugglers cove and the waterfall hike the most. Iâm hoping someday we will come back! Thanks!
Our family of 4 spent a few days escaping the city to explore the Sunshine Coast.
The location is lovely. You can see & hear the creek running from the house. The outdoor deck would be ideal in the warmer weather.
The unit is modern yet comfortable. The kitchen was stocked very well. We cooked every night.
We will be back!
The location was perfect for a quiet get-a-way. My adult daughter wanted to try paddle boarding but could not navigate the drop off to the tidal basin nor the climb back up the steep embankment. The winding path was very lovely and beautiful. The accommodations were more than adequate. Hint - - - a hold bar would be MOST helpful when stepping out of the shower.
John and I have been visiting the Sunshine Coast for 15 years, so it was no surprise we chose to retire to this community. We are outdoor enthusiasts: kayaking, hiking, mountain biking are just a few of the sports we enjoy. We love to travel and explore new cultures, languages and cuisine. We welcome you to our private, landscaped retreat.
John and I only moved to the Sunshine Coast five years ago, but it feels like we've always called this home. We are blessed to have a property that offers both water and trail activities right from our front door. And it is a pleasure to wake up to the sounds of birds chirping and the cascading waters of Homesite Creek against the backdrop of Crown forest lands. The colours and tides and wildlife are always changing, so you never tire of the view. We think we've won the lottery!
