Ease of access into town
The bus stop is right outside the front door of Houton Bay Lodge and will conveniently take you right into town. Guests love the fact that this lodge is actually off the beaten path, and in a lovely quiet area, however if you need to get to town, it is so easy.

Immaculately appointed

Great breakfast
This little lodge will make sure there is nothing little about the early morning breakfast, where guests will have a wide variety of dishes to choose from. There are hot and cold choices, and guests say the you can taste the freshness of the products used.

Nothing much on the outside
Houton Bay Lodge is pretty ordinary looking on the outside according to most guests, and some feel that it might be a good idea to give the building a bit of a facelift, however other guests don't mind because once you get inside, everything including the atmosphere is warm.
negative:
No cell phone coverage
Some guests find that they don't have any cell phone coverage on the island as the area is a little remote, leaving some guests with no Wi-Fi signal either; regardless there is so much to do that many guests don't miss the Internet after a while.
