My parents and I had a wonderful time at the Whaling Station. On the edge of the lagoon, the setting is gorgeous, peaceful and intimate; perfect for the holiday of a family of three.

Peter and Gail are friendly, consummate hosts and treated us as though we were family. Many conversations were had over the fire with a glass of wine in hand that I’ll always remember fondly.

It was the best Christmas I’ve had in a long time. I’ll miss them and will be sure to return to the Whaling Station soon.
