A luxurious hotel or quaint B&B can make a weekend with your significant other even more perfect. Isn’t it time to treat each other to water views, an abundance of wine and great food?

Peach harvest is one of my favourite times of the year as I love creating drinks with fresh, juicy Okanagan peaches.

Wine connoisseurs speak of sweetness, acidity, tannin, fruit and body when describing wines. But the perfect wine-tasting experience shares another characteristic: a great view.

Our local chefs are thrilled to welcome the bounty that summertime brings to the Okanagan and can’t wait to integrate the newest seasonal ingredients into their menus.

If you only had one, just one day to spend in Kelowna here are a few of the many must-see attractions and venues.  (You really should stay longer or start planning your next holiday though!) 

Don’t get me wrong, I love popcorn shrimp and gourmet burgers, but sometimes I want to choose the location for family dinner out. With two small kids, my husband and I aren’t often in charge of that decision. Recently we’ve stumbled on a couple of dining options that strike a balance, kid friendly options at adult centric restaurants (who happen to be totally family friendly!)

Leave your car at home! In Kelowna, having a car isn’t necessary for you to get around and explore some great places.

Kelowna is the place to be for New Years Eve! With plenty of events that cater to all ages and tastes, you're guaranteed to have a blast ringing in the the new year. 

The past couple weeks have seen the mercury drop in Kelowna and while we all bundled up, the icy cold weather brought something magical and quintessentially Canadian to our local vineyards.
