We had a lovely two night stay at the end of May. Our room was very comfortable and the linens were so luxurious and the bed was a dream. Small balcony overlooking the lake was perfect for breakfast and an evening glass of wine. The breakfasts were amazing -- far above and beyond what we expected -- and Lisa was the perfect host.

Above the beach met all of our expectations. The view was spectacular, the host was accommodating, and provided delicious breakfasts meanwhile was mindful of our privacy. The unit was comfy, clean, nicely decorated, and the tub was a nice feature. I would highly recommend this B&B and plan to return.

This is one of the best places that we have stayed at while vacationing in Penticton. Lisa, who was our hostess was very friendly and extremely helpful advising us where to go insofar as restaurants are concerned. Furthermore, she baked some excellent muffins. Above the Beach is located fairly close to the Bluffs. Consequently the views from the suite of Skaha Lake and Penticton are stunning. All in all one of the best places to stay in Penticton.

It was a beautiful location up in the hills overlooking the lake. Hosts were friendly, food was good. Nice quiet location. Easy to drive to restaurants and all other sorts of things. They even welcomed us with rose petal hearts on our bed and a bottle of sparkling wine in the fridge for our honeymoon!

Barb and Gary were lovely hosts. They were kind and hospitable, and their breakfasts were delicious and generous. They were engaging conversationalists and it was nice to chat with them while having breakfast (though they weren’t intrusive - we just enjoyed chatting with them). We had breakfast on the patio, which has a great view. The room was large and had everything we needed - a Keurig machine with coffee and tea, beach towels, a small fridge, many blankets, and necessary toiletries. We were in the downstairs Ruby room and it had a small patio just outside it, which was nice. The air conditioning was great, though we had to close the vent at times because it could get quite cold. And because the room is below the kitchen/living area, you can hear people moving or talking, so it’s not for light sleepers who are hoping to sleep in past 7-7:30am. Otherwise, we had a great stay!

Clean and quiet with great food. Barb and Gary are wonderful hosts-very accommodating. Our room had a private patio which was lovely for morning coffee and evening wine. Nice tub with separate shower. They provide dishes and a microwave, robes and slippers. We were about 8 km from the KVR trail. If your cycling save enough energy to climb the hill-there is a steep grade to get home. Crescent Hill Winery is around the corner and worth a stop. Highly recommended.

Thank you for your feedback. Although the Emerald Suite is the largest room with the biggest balcony and best views, it does suffer some noise transmission from the kitchen upstairs. We are very sorry for this inconvenience.
