We loved our stay at The Islander! The pools and spas were a big highlight for us as well as being right on the river and close to the ferry stop and busses to main beach/Hastings St. We ran out of time to do everything we wanted to do, but we did lots of swimming, bbqs, boat hire, Restaurants, we want to come back to take advantage of the games room, sauna, and all the other things we loved this time around. Super lovely staff. Lovely apartment. Highly recommend!
