Vancouver Island, BC

Rooted in Nature, Designed for Connection
Kiwi Cove Lodge is a peaceful West Coast retreat nestled on 10 acres of oceanfront property in Ladysmith, British Columbia. Once an overgrown stretch of wilderness, the land was lovingly transformed into a tranquil gathering place where nature, comfort, and community come together. In 1997, 132 kiwi vines were planted, and by 2001, the 9,000 sq. ft. lodge was built — thoughtfully designed to welcome guests seeking stillness, simplicity, and connection to the beauty of Vancouver Island.
Today, the lodge features 12 private guest rooms, open-concept common areas, and a dining room where homemade breakfasts are served with care. Surrounded by vineyards, gardens, and sweeping ocean views, Kiwi Cove Lodge feels both grounding and restorative — the kind of place where time slows down, conversations linger, and the natural world sets the pace.
Perfect for getaways, weddings, and retreats, the property offers a warm, coastal setting for meaningful gatherings of all kinds. Guests can stroll through the kiwi orchard, relax on private decks, or take in the oceanfront views that stretch toward the mountains and Ladysmith Harbour.
Whether you’re planning an intimate wedding, hosting a corporate or wellness retreat, or simply escaping for a quiet weekend, Kiwi Cove Lodge offers the perfect blend of rustic West Coast charm and modern comfort.
Located just minutes from Ladysmith and 3 km south of the Nanaimo Airport, Kiwi Cove Lodge is your tranquil home base for exploring Vancouver Island’s beaches, trails, and small-town charm — or simply soaking up the peace that lives here year-round.
