We stayed in the signature tent houses and it was incredible. The ocean view from our tent was divine; the sun was streaming in on the patio all afternoon (meaning we read our books and watched the sea life), the sunset was stunning and we had a very good sleep in the comfortable bed. We stayed two nights but would’ve loved to stay longer. The boardwalk to get to the tents was easy, and helped us digest a delicious meal from the restaurant. The heated floors were a lovely touch. Make sure to bring extra warm clothes if staying in the winter. The staff brought us an extra heater and we were fine but it was chilly the first night. Use wheeled luggage if you have it, as the boardwalk is a good 5 minute walk to the tents and we had to carry a lot!10/10 - Definitely coming back!

Glamping at the Rockwater Secret Cove Resort, Suns

Our stay at the Rockwater Secret Cove Resort was awesome! We stayed in one of their oceanfront tents. "Glamping" at its finest. Check out the accommodation on their website. The restaurant Tu Bird was great as well. Very responsive service all around.

Fantastic restaurant with a view. Wonderful setting, hope issues will be fixed as would like to return and all easily addressed. TV not working. Called desk but couldn’t fix. Worked intermittently. Emergency light in cabin didn’t work. Had to repeat TV problem to new desk person again in morning. Needs maintenance/replacement. Nice robes but huge hole in one.

If you're looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life, this is a great choice. The location is quite secluded, and phone service (Rogers and Telus) is limited, so be prepared to disconnect. Once you're there, take the opportunity to stay at the resort, connect with nature, and soak in the stunning views.

This was such an incredible trip. Everyone working here is super sweet and helpful. My partner and I were travelling the Sunshine Coast and only stayed at the Rockwater Secret Cove Resort for one night but in one night we were able to kayak, swim, hike some of the most beautiful trails nearby and enjoy the more delicious meal we've had in a while. Definitely will be coming back!
