Centrally located, newly renovated, cozy one bedroom, corner apartment of our bungalow-style fourplex with private entrance.

Short stroll to the beach or the heart of DT Penticton with cute shops, cool pubs, wine bars and lots of casual or fine dining - wineries and breweries in every direction!

The property backs onto a creek side path leading straight to the beach in minutes. And the BEST way to end the day is a relaxing soak in our 6-seater hot tub!
The space
A comfy, one bedroom apartment in bungalow style 4-plex, includes very comfortable sofa sleeper provides space for up to four guests. The bed is a firm mattress with memory foam topper. If you prefer firm, please let us know prior to your stay and we’ll remove the topper for you.

You'll find a fully stocked kitchen with all the dishes and utensils you could need and a full bathroom and shower with bath.

If you happen to require a space to work during your stay with us, enjoy the use of our home built desk, built with love and amazing talent by one of your hosts, Joy! :)

You will have full control over the temperature of your space with independent heating and air conditioning. Also included is wifi and ROKU TV, as well as access to our top of the line washing machine and dryer. And of course, a large six seater hot tub located in the backyard under the stars!

And for your outside experience, there is a barbeque, outdoor seating and lighting, and a propane fire pit for those chillier evenings. :)

If you plan to bring a dog for your stay, please let us know if you are coming with more than one. The pet fee is meant for one pet, so depending on the type of dog, we may need to request an added fee to cover additional cleaning time.
Guest access
You can access anything you need in just a short stroll; pubs, shops, casual and fine dining, all in the heart of downtown Penticton. Park your car when you arrive, with ample free parking in the back, and don't touch it again until you're ready to head home! And don't worry about scheduling an arrival time - just let yourself into your private place with our keyless entry!
Other things to note
We are so happy to be a pet friendly space, and as such provide a sofa/bed cover (please use it to protect the furniture when you would like your fur baby to join you on the furniture), dishes for food and water, a towel for wet paws after a walk in the rain or a swim at the beach, and of course, doggie bags. But no worries if you forget to grab one on your way out, this amazing city also provides doggie bag stations all along the walking path! How great is that?!

What a perfect getaway location! Spotless unit and outdoor amenities, steps from the KVR bike trail and a short walk to Penticton downtown and beachfront. Lovely hosts. Will absolutely stay here on our next trip!

Liked: Cleanliness
The unit itself is lovely. Well appointed with lots of thoughtful little extras. The hosts are very communicative and everything is well explained. I would however not book again. All of the outdoor amenities including the yard space and hot tub are shared with what I assume to be other guests or hosts staying in other apartments. Nothing about the listing is inaccurate but it should be expressly stated that these are shared. The hot tub is basically open to a busy a street/walking path without any privacy. In general the place lacks privacy. For the price I was expecting to have exclusive use of the yard area and hot tub. It’s weird when another apartment with guests in it is looking at you through there windows when you want to use the hot tub. There is a dog that wanders the hallway between units and barks incessantly throughout the day. It’s a weird feeling, if I had clearly understood what I was getting I would be less upset about the experience, but I can’t help feel that Desert Shores is a bit of a bait and switch.

What a great stay for our family. Lisa was a wonderful host who made sure our stay was a very memorable and pleasant experience. Her place has everything one needs to enjoy their stay. Our furry friend had all she could want as well. Thank you Lisa!

Perfect Penticton Stay

Excellent place to stay during your vacation. The owners have thought of everything you need: dry racks for bathing suits, hooks in every room, fully stocked kitchen, beautiful products (soaps in kitchen and bathroom), extra blankets, luggage racks, and more. This place is more than pet friendly: it was pet welcoming too. They even had special dishes, blanket and bed for my pup. The space is beautifully decorated and very comfortable, with laundry very conveniently located just outside the suite. (They even had laundry baskets for guests to use!) The hot tub in the yard was very clean. The yard very well kept and so nice to have outdoor space to use: my best was an afternoon nap in the hammock. Even more, the location was fantastic for us: easy walk to the lake and restaurants and the Saturday market. Located right on the path, for a perfect walk or bike riding option. Thank you to the owners for making our stay so comfortable. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommend!

Amazing property! Location is 10/10, super quiet but walkable to downtown Penticton. The backyard was peaceful and spacious for our dogs. The hosts was hands down the highlight of our stay. They were super helpful and went above and beyond for us. We appreciate the snacks and wine! We will absolutely come back.
