Nice motel for a great price. Quiet. Room was very clean but a little small. Very close to the ferry to Horseshoe Bay. Great bar just down the street. Front desk staff was super friendly. A little away from downtown but a very easy drive.

Beautiful King room/suite, with everything you need, lovely and clean. The staff are super pleasant and very helpful. Just an overnight stop to catch the ferry next day at the terminal which is just across the road. This Inn is a 'hidden gem', we will definitely stay longer next time!

Very Good Motel
Stayed twice at Buccaneer Inn on road trip around Vancouver Island. Excellent self-catering facilities (microwave, full size stove top & oven, toaster, kettle, utensils, etc.) in clean and spacious 'apartment' with separate bedroom Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Ample parking and very convenient location for ferry terminal. Only real negative was slightly noisy at night from nearby roads. Would stay again.
