You need to keep in mind this is a hotel first, spa second. So my big complaint relates to pricing. The place is really nice. Great layout, nice amenities. Good spa services, but not that good given the price. What is really unappealing and will stop me from going back, is you pay EXTRA to then use the pool/sauna. You're already into the spa for a ton of money, then to get dinged for dipping in the pool? Come on, that's a rip off. Overall, not worth the money.

Spa services were 5 star treatments however almost $200 for a facial is getting to be a bit too much. Carmen was great. The facility is just ok compared to other spas within 2-3 hours on Vancouver Island. The $40 pool fee is not worth it, we would not pay for that again. The lounge chairs were pushed so close that they were touching so it was quite uncomfortable lying that close to a stranger. It was just too crowded. I would give the pool area and spa a 3 star review but our treatments were so good that I increased overall rating to 4 stars. Bottom line, there are better spas out there.

Boathouse Spa is by far my favourite spa on Vancouver Island! It’s located right on the ocean in the BEST hotel ever, the Oak Bay Beach Hotel. Boathouse offers exclusive evening Pool Passes for guests between 5:00-10:00 pm every so often. They go quick so follow on Facebook/Instagram for the best availability. The staff make you feel so special right from the moment you walk through the door. You’re greeted with a friendly, warm smile and graciously shown the locker room where they’ll supply luxurious robes, sandals and fluffy towels. They have a licensed bar on site and offer takeaway food from the “Snug Pub” (hotel restaurant). There are 2 hot tubs, 1 extra large (warm) pool, lots of nice loungers, fire pits, sun umbrellas and an indoor sauna. It really is a paradise! You just kind of melt away listening to the ocean waves crash and the birds chirping. They also have a full spa menu - book in early to reserve a good spot. Free hotel underground parking too! Do yourself a favour and check this place out! It’s worth it every penny!

We had the most amazing experience at the Boathouse Spa for our anniversary! We booked a couples massage in the gazebo by the sea, and it was absolutely perfect—peaceful and relaxing. The staff were incredibly friendly and professional, making us feel comfortable and cared for the entire time. Everything from start to finish was flawless. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a truly relaxing and memorable experience!
