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.

We booked an oceanview room with a balcony and got exactly that. A nice size balcony with two comfortable chairs and a small table overlooking the bay with an unobstructed view. It really made up for the cruise we cancelled to stay in Canada. No roads between the hotel and the beach. True beachside resort. The onsite restaurant was excellent. Fresh food, reasonable prices and pleasant staff. Plus amazing ocean and beach views. Lovely gazebo, two pools, green grass, flowers.

The hotel overall was nice - the artwork in the main lobby is stunning. However during the week we were there the men's bathroom off the main lobby was supposedly under repair but nothing was done during the time of our stay - also although the pools were open and heated, the whirlpool was not. The room was nice but the pillows were not comfortable. The restaurant food was very good. The staff was nice and so overall a good stay.

Always a pleasure to stay at this hotel. Friendly professional staff , excellent service and views to die for from our oceanfront room. The property is in excellent condition apart from noticing the need for some maintenance to our room patio door which was difficult to close quietly and the bathroom fan which was noisy. Otherwise, the decor was modern, bright and fresh. The bed was very comfortable. We enjoyed the delicious food and attentive service at the restaurant and patio . The appetizers during happy hour were amazing. This has become our go to hotel in Parksville for short breaks.
