ridefar, did you review here your Nimmo stay?

I am happy to answer any additional questions. My one observation / suggestion knowing you are going is to try to get an oceanfront cabin if available. The views and the feel of being right on the ocean, watching the tide going out and coming in are worth it, in my opinion. If you really want to splurge (and I fully get this isn't cheap as a solo traveler to start with) I would also say everybody we talked to *loved* the helicopter experience for a day. We didn't go there, mostly because being local to Western Canada, we can see glaciers and the high alpine whenever we want, and we have lots of similar opportunities. But if that is not something you normally get to experience, then it might be something to consider.
I really can't emphasize enough how great it is. Like having a cake on a small island during the lunch stop (we were there over my birthday). The cake was amazing, chocolate frosting with gold leaf. And it just sorta happened (it was a total surprise). There were so many small touches like that.
