Ritch has lived in the sooke region for twenty five years… so is always pleased to help with directions & locations of interest in the Sooke/Shirley area. He is most often able to get the best of seating and reservations at Sooke’s finer of dining establishments. With over 40 years in the hospitality business and skilled in wedding & conference creation/planning he is helpful and willing to provide assistance and knowledge in event coordination.

CRAIDELONNA has its own FACEBOOK page where endless albums and photos that show numerous seasons of weddings and gatherings. We ask you to check us out on FACEBOOK and “like craidelonna” to view the photo-journalistic albums of the many events over the years.

Craidelonna is a very PET FRIENDLY accommodation… the heated concrete floors make this home a safe environment for dogs and critters… we ask all pet owners to be responsible for their pet-friends and pick up behind them please… and did we mention the endless leash-less beaches with tons of throw sticks? smiles

We wish you the most wonderful of stays while you are here on the island at Craidelonna
