We have stayed at Walnut Beach many times since the first opened, both for business and pleasure. We go back time and gain because we have always had such a great stay!
The restaurant food has always been tasty and their wine list highlights the local wineries well.
The poolside rooms offer a spectacular view of the lake and the pool itself is terrific. The staff have always been courteous and very helpful.
The one downside is the fitness centre: it's small and not all that well equipped. Other than that we simply love it! We have 3 trips planned this summer! -

I have mixed feelings about Walnut Beach Resort. The rooms are gorgeous. If you decide to stay here, I highly recommend the lake view rooms because the view is breathtaking and the balcony is a lovely place to soak it all in. The rooms come with fully functioning kitchens including a stove, pots and pans, dishes, a microwave, refrigerator, and dishwasher. The rooms also have washers and dryers. Less impressive is the fireplace with it's fake flames.
The hotel has a heated pool and two jacuzzis. You can access a private beach from the hotel. There are also BBQ grills available in case you feel like cooking out. You might just want to cook your own food since the restaurant at the hotel leaves a lot to be desired.
Speaking of things that are lacking...customer service is not Walnut Beach Resort's high point. For example, while they say they have a spa they really just call this one lady in when people want a service. This is what I heard when someone was trying to book a massage at the front desk. They said their spa person was on vacation. Okay, I understand everyone is entitled to time off, but people go to hotels on vacation so it would be nice if the hotel had a back up. We ended up going over to Spirit Ridge Resort and Spa for spa services, which made us wish that we'd just stayed there to begin with. In addition to the lack of spa services, the front desk wasn't very knowledgeable or helpful. I am assuming there is a lack of training, which reflects the resort not making customer service a priority. Such a shame. This could be a really awesome place. -

Heard about their patio and decided to stop in for lunch. Since the dining room was empty and just a few tables had diners thought it might be wise to check out the menu. Before I had a chance to look it over I noticed a waitress behind the bar with a tray full of drinks stick her fingers into a glass of water to fish something out. She then proceeded to take the tray out to customers on the patio. I mentioned this to the bartender or waitress behind the bar and she said she would speak to her about it. She did not go and get the tray of drinks! She suggested it was maybe just a fruit fly! Needless to say we did not stay for lunch.

I completely agree with the previous review. The rooms are great; we stayed in a one bedroom suite with full kitchen for $99/night (thank you, Travelzoo!). And, I highly recommend that you use that kitchen (or the barbecues) to cook your own food as the restaurant was just awful. We ordered the "slow-roasted" ribs, a blue cheese burger, and a grilled cheese sandwich for our son off the kids' menu. i have had beef jerky that was more moist and tender than the ribs, the burger was clearly a store-bought frozen patty (the kind you buy in a box from any supermarket), the cheese in the sandwich looked like cheese whiz, and the chips that came with the sandwich was just a bag of expired Lays potato chips. Stay away! Especially as it does look like some of the local restaurants are pretty good in Osoyoos.
