"The beauty &
hospitality were unsurpassed in our broad experience with B&B’s. We spent many hours marveling at the ever changing view and
restoring our souls. It was
truly a home away from home.
Thank you for providing us with not only a wonderful place to say but also
interesting and vital conversation – not to mention the relaxing waters of
the hot tub.
We look forward to a return visit in the near future.”

"Having worked in the tourism
marketing industry on Vancouver Island for 5+ years I can say without a doubt
Cloud 9 is one of the most incredible spots and experiences we've enjoyed.
Delightful hosts (both the two and four legged kind!), amazing food and a view
to die for. What more could you ask for in a B&B getaway experience?"
Lara & Andrew
"We have stayed in a number of B&B's and Cloud 9 is truly our best B&B

again, and keep up the good work."

you. Don’t change a thing!”
Monique & Ulisses
"To let the soul take flight has been
human kind's dream for centuries. Cloud 9 allows one's soul to drift away
into the lakes, mountains, trees, water and clouds. You have created
something more than bricks and mortar; a place of spiritual rejuvenation through
simplicity combined with nature. Thanks so much."
Bill & Carolyn
“Thanks for all your wonderful
hospitality.
You have an amazingly beautiful B&B, and one of the best views I’ve ever
seen. We especially appreciated the
little extra touches you provided.
Loved those muffins!
I think I’ll have to come back just for them.
Breakfasts were sumptuous and very plentiful.
Thanks again for making our stay on Salt Spring Island so comfortable.
It was like home away from home.
Hope to see you soon again!
Thanks.”

home. Thank you for making the 'space' for us while also affording us such
warmth and hospitality. Many thanks and warmest wishes..."
Andrew & Fiona
"Pat and John - we have rarely stayed at a more well-appointed & better situated
bed and breakfast. I might even venture to say that this is the best B&B
experience we've had. Your home does a superb job at creating an ambience
that is private and restful. We feel quite pampered and relaxed.
Thank you - and breakfasts were great!!"
Sandra & Avi
"John and Pat - We're not sure what was more incredible....your gracious
hospitality, the incredible views, the gourmet cooking, the adorable dogs or the
island itself. You made our honeymoon every bit as memorable as we'd
hoped. Look us up when you get to our neck of the woods!"
Steve & Karen
"Wow! You have made our very first stay at a B&B one we will never forget.
Your home is just amazing and we certainly felt right at home here. We had
a wonderful 5th anniversary here on Salt Spring Island and at Cloud 9. The
food (and coffee!) was delicious, the view spectacular and your hospitality
superb! Thank you so much. With love..."
Steve & Lisa
"John and Pat are wonderful hosts. They are both welcoming and
hospitable. Their home is worth a million dollars but their view is
priceless. All these factors were important in helping us achieve a
very peaceful and relaxing weekend away from two very busy lifestyles.
Thank you so much Pat, John and of course Hamish & Heather (our
four-legged host & hostess).
