About this property

#17 Tanglewood Pl - 2bd 2bth BEACH FRONT 2-level unit - Beach, sun, sand & relax

Amazing Beach Front - Oceanview townhome style condo at Tanglewood resort in Parksville, British Columbia, located immediately beside the beach access to Rathtrevor Beach. Just steps away from unfettered beach access, sun and sand. Great for easy access and so close there is no need to pack for a day at the beach when 30 steps has you back at home.

Our 1255 sq. ft. 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms plus single mattress fold outs for extra sleepers, condo on the second floor (top floor) enjoys an open floor plan, cathedral ceilings and two private decks (one on the roof) that provides gorgeous ocean and beach views and provides privacy and quiet. Comfortable patio furniture and a stainless BBQ are there for your enjoyment. A king size bed in the ‘master’ suite with en-suite bathroom plus a queen size bed in the adjacent bedroom provides lots of space and privacy. Great for couples and families.

The unit features a large kitchen with all the amenities of home, full size washer and dryer, and complete linen sets and beach towels available for your use. There is also a large secure storage area for bikes, beach toys, skim and paddle boards and whatever else you want out of sight.

This unit provides commanding ocean views and is adjacent to the Rathtrevor Provincial Park. Not only do you have the ocean views, but this unit is quiet and peaceful year round. Sit and watch the bald eagles soar or the deer pecking for food in the park. Steps away from one of the most scenic walking/running/biking trails on Vancouver Island that winds its way through Rathtrevor Park while contouring to the ocean.

Come, unwind and relax at one of the finest locations on Vancouver Island. Enjoy the tranquility of the surroundings and the amenities of home. 5 min drive to grocery stores and further amenities in Parksville. Enjoy a meal at the Black Goose Inn just a 10 min walk away or take a trip into town to micro-brew Mount Arrowsmith for a beverage and some food. Want goats on the roof? Coombs Market is an easy 15 drive away. Hike in the woods with waterfalls more your speed? Got that too; visit Englishman River Falls for a gentle 45 min hike with spectacular views and scenery. Cathedral Grove Forest is a 30 min drive and showcases some of North America’s biggest and best old-growth forest. Enjoy a walk through these massive trees.

A private beach fire-pit sets the evening mood. Watch the tide roll in and the sun set majestically over the ocean and distant snow capped mountains as you relax in the sounds of nature.

Come and enjoy all that #17 Tanglewood Place in Parksville has to offer.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The kitchen was the best equipped we've ever encountered through VRBO. The views were amazing from both inside and on both decks. The proximity to beach, walking trails was perfect. We highly recommend this property.

Beautiful spot

We had a very nice stay. The location is so awesome. So easy to just walk back and forth to the beach. The condo was clean and had everything we needed. We have three young kids so the fold out mattresses in the second room got good use. Would definitely return.

Excellent property in ideal location. While not directly on the beach, it is very close and has wonderful beach views. Less than 1 minute walk from front door to beach. When tide is fully out, probably more than 1km or more of sand to the ocean, so a leisurely 20 minute stroll from beachfront to ocean along spectacular flat sand beach. When tide is on its way in, the water warms up across the sand, perfect for kids and adults alike, and one of the reasons Rathtrevor beach so desirable. It’s very hard to beat the location as it borders Rathtrevor provincial park so no neighbors to the north.The accommodation itself is very clean and well maintained. It is not modern, but perfect for the environment and very comfortable as a place to come home to after a day at the beach. It’s a very comfortable and relaxing place to stay after a fun day at the beach. Likely important to many, the accommodations are exceptionally clean and well maintained, credit to the owner and cleaning staff. Bottom line, if you are interested in staying in or around Parksville or Rathtrevor Beach, this should be a top candidate for a place to stay, you will not regret. I would stay again.While we didn’t prepare more than a basic meal, everything is there is nothing lacking for making a full family meal.

Not worth the money

Carport parking spot requires an eight point turn to get into. Very tight area and all sloped. Steep hill that visitor parking is at too of.Had to wash towels empty garbage and recycle and take up to top of hill upon leaving. No gas in the BBQ. Staircase up to unit...not on ground level. Also rule was unable to leave property before 0700 so as not to disturb . Rule was to park up top of you had an early morning departure. Not for anyone who has any sore of mobility issue or is elderly!Furniture tired and worn. Poor quality mattresses on beds.View was lovely. Proximity to beach and Rathtrevor provincial park was awesome. Open living space area was nice and gasgaforeplacenwoorked.

It’s a very open livable space with all the amenities of home. The real stand-out quality is the view and the convenience of being so close to the beautiful beach. The sunrises were gorgeous and the park next door makes for a lovely evening walk.

Excellent location. Lots of trails nearby for walking along the ocean. Mini golf nearby. Kitchen is well stocked, comfortable living room area. Our only complaint was that the beds were hard making sleeping a little uncomfortable if you are used to a softer mattress. Would definitely return to this condo.

Great unit

We've stayed in many units at tanglewood over the years, each with their own unique benefits. This unit was excellent for location to beach/water views and well equipped kitchen.A bit outdated interior, but comfortable and what you'd expect for a beach vacation. Very enjoyable stay!

Wonderful beach experience

Staying at Andrew’s place was a great experience! The property is exactly as described/pictured. Everything was clean and we appreciated all the thoughtful touches (beach towels, beach chairs/umbrella).We loved having a bbq dinner, watching the tide coming in and out through the big living room window, hanging out on the beach and going for walks along the beach path in neighbouring Rathtrevor park.The layout worked very well for us—each of the two couples had their own bathroom and we could all sit comfortably in the living room.We would go back in a heartbeat!

Too much cleaning for a vacation. We had already paid a cleaning fee, but still has to clean house every day during our stay. On our last morning, We still have to do laundry of towels , sheets, sweep floors , kitchen dishes, put out garbage . Otherwise, it was a very good & convenient place to stay and enjoy the weekend.
