Beautiful Location

This was an amazingly relaxing vacation. The resort is charming and very well kept. Absolutely no complaints about our unit whatsoever. And the view……well hey it’s the West Coast therefore stunningly beautiful! Big thanks to Donald as he has been more than helpful throughout the process. Definitely recommend to friends.

August 2024

My parents, partner, daughter and myself very much enjoyed our stay at Donald’s place. The listing pictures don’t adequately capture how spacious and bright Donald’s place is! The beds in both rooms are very comfortable and we were pleasantly surprised to find the queen in the second bedroom had been upgraded to a king— a definite plus. My 6.5 year old loved the indoor and outdoor pools and we all enjoyed the easy access to the beach and being able to walk just across the lawn to borrow paddle boards/kayaks. There was some noise from the unit above — footsteps and occasionally music — but the noise wasn’t disruptive to sleep.

Beautiful views and great location!

Thank you Donald for letting us stay at your beautiful condo. We really enjoy this location the beach the pools (heated pools) was fantastic. We travelled with two families and with four kids ages 4 to 9, kids enjoyed the beach at low tide looking for crabs and sea creatures and then they enjoyed the swimming pools. The condo was great, kitchen was fully stocked and the place was cleaned, just remember to bring shampoo and soap for your own use but we just bought some at a near by grocery which was great! Communication with the owner (Donald) was easy and fast in responding, check-in was smooth and parking was close by, we just parked by condo to offload/load and then park the car after. We wouldn't hesitate coming back at a different time with better weather (raining when we got there) to enjoy the beach more because with the amenities that it comes with it sounds like it would be an even cooler vacation! Thank you Donald for everything.

Wonderful stay with family on Craig Bay (Parksville)

From the time of booking our stay I always wondered if the amazing photos would match what we found when we arrived. I'm happy to say the photos were completely accurate. The suite itself was very nice, spacious, and seemed to have everything we needed for our family (grandparents, parents, and children) during a 5 night stay. The location was perfect! Our kids could walk out the front and play on the grass. Unlike other places we have stayed in Parksville where we have had to hike down to the ocean, the water was mere steps away. Sunsets are gorgeous! Although we used some of the amenities (fitness facility, playground, kiddie pool), there is so much more we could have done but simply ran out of time. Dealing with the owner - Donald - was very easy. He was always prompt in responding to my emails, as well as guiding us through the check in process. When he did come round the property I found him to be nice, friendly, and respectful; it was a pleasure dealing with him as he makes the process so easy. Big shout out also to the cleaning lady - the place was impeccably maintained! Overall, I can say that we were extremely pleased with this place in terms of people, location, and suite itself. The most difficult part was turning in the key, but we do hope to return soon.

Beautiful stay at Pacific Shores

We recently stayed for 2 weeks at this property. Donald, the owner, was excellent to deal with. He was very prompt in all his replies to our questions and provided great information about the unit, the area, etc. Donald has just completed a major renovation of the unit and, once all of the construction is completed the unit will be stunning. We cannot say enough good things about the location though. Oceanside, with great walking out the front door. We were a few minutes from Parksville with great access to the cross island highway network. We would stay here again.

Little piece of heaven

We really enjoyed the beauty of this location-just wish it had some beach floaties as we couldn't find any to buy on the island...and the kayaks we were looking forward to using they would not lend out due to staffing issues-although everyday the resort said it was a tide issue....until we pushed for the truth. We went to Horn lake to kayak but we sure enjoyed the relaxation of this unit. Thank you for sharing your space with us. We hope to return next summer!
