Great value in Parksville
This hotel is very clean and has beautiful views of Parksville Beach. The Nespresso machine in the room is a fantastic addition. We drank espresso while sitting on our balcony watching seals swim in the bay.

Loved our recent staycation! Ordered room service and the food was excellent! I had the braised beef short ribs - fall off the bone! My mom and friend had the fish and chips. We ate every bite! The indoor/ outdoor pool was heated but could’ve been a little warmer since it’s under half a roof and it was raining. Enjoyed it anyway! Will definitely be back again! Love that it was pet friendly because my cat had the best time jumping off one bed to the next lol He even curled up in the dog bed.
