We had a nice stay. The unit came well equipped with everything we needed. Our only complaint is that the unit does not have air conditioning despite it being listed as having air conditioning in the description. It gets quite hot in the unit and makes sleeping difficult.

Great family vacation spot!
This was an excellent spot for our family vacation. The place had everything we needed, and we really enjoyed the patio that opened up to the shared lawn. Easy access to the beach and all the fun of Parksville. Would definitely stay again!
Considering the time of year and weather , the condo was toasty warm. The fireplace heated the place very efficiently and gave a nice ambience . Correspondence was easy and response was quick . Over all a good place to stay ….all 4 of us recommend it !
