What a pleasant surprise to be hosted by a top chef, Steve Marsden, in his hotel quality B&B. We started every day with beyond your expectations a healthy 3 course breakfast beyond your standard toast and scrambled eggs. Thank you Steve and Chrissy!

Was an absolute amazing experience. Right from the moment we arrived till we left. Beautiful house with fantastic rooms. Breakfast was one of the best I've ever had. Steve was such a warm friendly person. The views of the lake and Kelowna were surreal. Highly recommend the B and B. You will not be disappointed.

A View of the Lake does not disappoint! We got the chance to meet Steve, co-owner of the B&B. He showed us the beautiful view from the terrace. We stayed in the Garden View room. Huge King bed, walk-in closet, shower and heated bathroom floors. Wonderful amenities and very accommodating. We didn't get a chance to experience a full breakfast, as we had to leave early, but Steve made us a lovely yogurt parfait and wrap for the road.

Amazing view, spectacular breakfast!
Steve and Chrissy were amazing hosts and the A View of the Lake B&B is the most perfect place to base yourselves whilst exploring the beautiful town of Kewlona. I just wished we could have stayed longer to go to some of the lovely restaurants and wineries! Steve gave such great recommendations on where to eat around town. And cooked us a 3 course breakfast in the morning which was absolutely delicious! Who knew rosemary tastes so good in blueberry pancakes? I've never had a more delicious breakfast in my life and from such an esteemed chef! We thoroughly enjoyed the view from the sweeping balcony as well as the huge lounge area. Our room (Valley room) was massive, very clean and extremely comfortable. It's all the attention to detail that makes this Bed and Breakfast an absolute stand-out accommodation. I hope to come back again and stay longer!

Culinary treat in relaxing, welcoming atmosphere
Staying with Steve and Chrissy was everything we expected and more. We'd read about the amazing breakfasts and the friendly atmosphere and it's exactly what we experienced. The view from the deck is fabulous and couple that with the two best breakfasts I can remember, and it was truly a memorable stay. Chrissy is so welcoming (Steve is too) and the atmosphere they create is comfortable and homey. Steve's skills in the kitchen take it over the top and when we told other people we met during our wine tour what our breakfasts consisted of, they immediately wanted to know where we were staying. We could not recommend this place more.

A gem that should not be hidden. This B&B is a gold standard Steve and Chrissy, the owners make you feel so at home from the time you check in to the time you leave. The breakfast brunch made by Chef Steve is a three course manna from heaven. The ambience is tranquil and uplifts the start of your day. Don’t miss out by staying anywhere else in West Kelowna or Kelowna Thank You so much for your hospitality.

This is an outstanding B&B! From the personal checkin to the detail of the accommodations and the breakfast are exceptional. Unfortunately I can only give it 5 stars as there is no option to give it 10. We have travelled extensively around the world and this one surpasses most. Kudos to the host

Very confortable and clean room in a house with an amazing view of Okanagan Lake and downtown Kelowna. On top of this, very delicious breakfast by the owner, a retired executive chef. He was also very forthcoming with suggestions for wineries, restaurants and places to visit. Will definitely stay here again at our next visit to the valley.

A lovely couple. Very welcoming and accommodating. Room was very large and well appointed. The breakfast was a wonderful surprise - 3 courses! One must have a car to stay at this property as it is a 15-20 minute drive to restaurants and services. Also, be advised there is not a television in the room, if this is important to you.

This BB has everything we were looking for during our 5 day stay in Kelowna. Stunning views from a communal terrace balcony, gorgeous room with the stunning view, delicious breakfast prepared by a great chef and very hospitable and friendly owners. The 3 course breakfast was not only delicious ; it was beautifully presented. Also the location is easy access to main highways. Highly recommended.

The best B&B we have ever stayed
Would highly recommend Steve is a loving and friendly host and amazing chef. We have to postpone our trip on the same day that we were supposed to check in due to tested positive with covid. Steve was very accommodating and we were able to cancel and re-book without any penalty. Thanks, Steve for your understanding. Outstanding gourmet breakfast and breathtaking view of the Okanagan lake from our room. Would highly recommend staying there if anyone is looking for a place to stay. We would definitely return to stay again in a heartbeat.
