Great staff in all alreas of the property. Very clean. Nice outdoor and indoor pools. Walk to the beach is long and hilly; not good if any mobility issues. On site restaurant was reasonably priced with good food and a variety of options for our whole party of 7. Wonderful views off the balcony in the ocean view rooms.

A short but lovely stay. The view of the bay is breathtaking, the staff are friendly and helpful, our room was clean, and it had the best shower of our entire trip, even better than the Fairmont (though it’s not a high bar, sadly). We also had EXCELLENT brunch at Eggie Cafe nearby.

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely oceanfront property. The food was excellent, and our room was very comfortable. It’s right next-door to a great mini golf place. We watched hummingbirds from the breakfast dining room.. There’s a walking path down to the beach, where we watched tiny crabs in the tide pools. It’s nicely refurbished, with two warm swimming pools, tons of flower baskets, and local art displays. Beautifully done! Nothing bad to say at all. Great little gem!

We went for 1 night to getaway before our wedding day. The location was beautiful and convenient, the room was clean, and the staff was friendly. It would have been nice to know the hot tub was out of service as the weather wasnt the greatest. I figured given our situation we would have been given a room with a nice ocean view, the reason i booked there. It was nice but nothing special for our stay.

What a find! Resort is exactly what it is. Fantastic location on the beach right in Parksville. We were in town for a wedding and unexpectedly needed to bring our pup. The staff and property was very accommodating. It was a wonderful experience with full service restaurant with beautiful patio, coffee bar both on site. Outdoor pool was lovely in the sunshine. All amenities very pleasant. Rooms were clean, well equipped and modern. Highly recommend and I hope we get a chance to stay there again.

Overnight stay

This was our second time staying at this hotel. It is bright and clean. The towels are very large and thick. We had an ocean view the first visit, this one was a view of the parking lot, okay for one night. Comfortable beds and a large assortment of pillows, unfortunately they were all a bit firm for me.

I stay at Fairmont’s when I travel for business yet, this little hotel is one of my favourite stays. The grounds are pretty and well maintained. The outdoor pool is lovely (not fond of the indoor pool but kids love it.. and they can stay there lol). The beach access and the view of the ocean is worth every penny.
