The Purple Starfish Bed  Breakfast

Campbell River

We stayed at The Purple Starfish for two nights and we loved it. With our party of 5 we had both bedrooms and the sofa bed in the living rooom, so the whole B&B for ourselves. Bedrooms are spacious and clean. Beds are fine (one of the mattresses maybe in for a replacement because you keep rolling to the middle while sleeping). There is a spacious living room with kitchen. Not equipped for preparing a complete meal but there is a microwave, coffeemaker, toaster and fridge what worked out just fine for us. Owner Rocco also offered the use of his BBQ, very kind.
In the living room you'll find much info about Campbell River and surroundings. 
The breakfast was served in the kitchen and was very nice, a great start of the day. WiFi signal was good, very important if you travel with teenagers as we did.
Rocco, Lucilla and son Leonardo are very friendly people with Italian roots. Nice to talk about de Italian cuisine and how to make a good pasta Carbonara. We felt welcome and hope to return one day.
Thank you for the hospitality.


Great B&B

Lucilla and Rocco are so welcoming and friendly. We felt like we were visiting family or old friends. Great breakfast.Great location near the ocean, airport, and ferries. Campbell River is a charming town and a nice resting stop for the night if you are travelling to Quadra or Cortes Island, or north Vancouver Island.

Excellent, Charming, Welcoming, Clean...

We planned a rather last minute weekend getaway to Campbell River and Quadra Island and planned to camp, but all the campsites were full. So instead of getting a tiny hotel room with few amenities we decided to go with this B&B as it seemed much nicer for the price, and it was!

Its about a 10 minute drive south of Campbell River's main center, and a 5 minute walk to the beach and a lovely seaside walking route in a fairly new looking neighborhood.

There are two bedrooms in a separated downstairs unit with shared bathroom, kitchen and dining/lounge areas with the other guests. One of the rooms has a crib for a baby or young child and there are toys if you have children, so would be very nice for families to stay here. The kitchen had a large fridge, microwave, kettle, toaster and coffee maker and two tables for eating at. It was nice and spacious.

We were the only guests staying when we were there so it was nice and quiet. Lucilla made breakfast both days we stayed which was delicious and a great start to our day! Rocco and Lucilla were happy to chat and offer tips or advice on places to go and nice hikes in the area and were very nice to talk to. We tend to be quiet guests who like to keep to ourselves but I got the feeling that Rocco and Lucilla would love to chat more and happy to make more food and things if you wanted to! They asked if we had any dietary restrictions as far as breakfast and were willing to suit us for them, which was very nice.

It was clean and comfortable and nice and cool in the heat of summer. My only advice to the owners is the bathroom needs a fan to remove the condensation after showering to prevent any mold/mildew buildup in the future. Otherwise, it was all good!

Lovely little place to stay in Campbell River

Arrived at short notice for a week long fishing trip and Lucilla gave us a warm welcome along with afternoon coffee and cookies.We found the facilities clean comfortable and bright. Having Fishing Trips planned with early morning starts Lucilla prepared morning coffee along with homemade sandwiches for us to take on our trip. The mornings we weren't out early she provided a hearty breakfast. Lucilla is a gracious host who I would recommend to anyone looking for a pleasant stay.

comfortable stay

We stayed here with our three year old for a night. Rocco and his family are very nice and he makes a great breakfast. The room was nice and clean and Rocco arranged for a super nice bed for our little one. They have two rooms, you share the living room, bathroom and toilet with the other room.  The living room has a complete kitchen and lot's of kids toys. In our case we shared with a very nice Italian couple who had a little one as well so everyone had lots of fun. It's a five minute drive to the center of Campbell river. All in all a great stay!

Nice place, nice family

I stayed here with my family for the week end. The B&B was recently renewed and everything looks perfect. A lot of nice and classy details, surely due to the Italian background of the owners/innkeepers.

Outstanding cleanliness and charming innkeepers - with a special honor mention for the cats and Leonardo :-)
