I've been thinking of stay at Oak Bay Beach Hotel for years and I'm so glad I finally did. Blown away by the property, decor, rooms, and staff. Here for business but will definitely be back with family. I don't want to leave!
The new adults-only policy. I’ve spent many wonderful stay-cations here with my children and the only misbehaving I’ve ever seen in the pool are the drunk adults. So disappointing.
Business response:
Hello Tracey, Thank you for sharing your feedback on our Mineral Pools Policy. This decision came after many months of consulting and deliberation, trialling numerous solutions over the past years to find a harmonious balance between a safe, child-friendly pool and a therapeutic mineral bath area of serenity and wellness. These trials included additional staffing, signage, ‘family letters’, adult-only hours, and changes to our marketing and messaging. The pool and mineral baths have always been an extension of our spa by ... read more
Recently changed their policy to not allow children in their pool AT ALL. If you’re going to exclude an entire demographic, maybe consider kids before/after a specific hour, or build a second pool. Way to peg yourself as elitist pricks.

Dear Sarah, This decision was certainly not made lightly, in fact, we deliberated and consulted for many months. We have trialled numerous solutions over the past years to try and find a harmonious balance between a safe, child-friendly pool and a therapeutic mineral bath area of serenity and wellness. These trials included additional staffing, signage, ‘family letters’, adult-only hours, and changes to our marketing and messaging. Despite our best efforts, we were unable to provide ‘Our Best’ service and experience to both... read more
Oak Bay Beach Hotel: SHAME ON YOU. We reserved a Penthouse room and agreed to stay last night in standard room. Mgr said we could move over this morning for an upgrade fee... we agreed. Called down this morning and our fab penthouse room was given to someone else. "Sorry... there was a mistake made and your reservation was subject to availability" "We can't help you ... sorry." Let me tell you something... you have ruined our 45th wedding anniversary. You could have upgraded us or offered compensation or done SOME... read more
Had a wonderful lunch while looking over the water and Mt Baker in the distance. Our lunch consisted of black bean chilli and fish and chips. Great service and will be back.
Unfortunately, last Saturday my friend an I went into the Oak Bay Beach Hotel Spa and had a very miserable experience. We were both very excited for the special treat, as we all know a visit to the spa is usually a pricey one. We both signed up for Sports massages and arrived at the spa 3 hours early to enjoy all the amenities that come along with our treatment. Our disappointment goes as follows: 1- NO LOUNGE CHAIRS: Arrived at the spa, changed into our swimsuits, and there is not a single lounge chair that is free. There... read more
I just checked out yesterday morning and have been in contact with the concierge about leaving something in the room. There were other red flags during my stay but I ignored them. We stayed 2 nights, and I booked 3 roomsm. Today I called the hotel right away, less than 24 hours after check out because I left my $250 straightener in the room but I called twice until someone got back to me. I spoke to a woman and a man named Patrick. I had let them know where exactly I left it and why it flushed with the dark wood under the ... read more

Hi Andrea, Management will be connecting with you directly to resolve this situation.
Below is an email I sent directly to the spa on July 31 after my visit on the 30th. I received no reply. That has only added to my disappointment in my experience... I wanted provide a bit of feedback regarding my first visit to the spa. All of my comments are 'little things' that aren't a huge issue but together lessened my spa experience and for a '5 star spa' and the cost were disappointing. - upon arrival I was given a locker key and told it would contain my robe and a towel. It was empty. After going back to reception... read more
