Ray is amazing, and Konrad Cottage is a definite recommend!

Our stay at the Konrad cottage was nothing short of amazing. Ray is a communicative and generous host, who makes sure you feel safe and welcome, and the cabin itself was super cute and homey. It's a two min or less walk to the beach, and the oceanside campfires were breathtaking. We would love to return to Konrad Cottage one day! :)

wonderful location, but not quite waterfront!

This property has a lot of pluses, quiet and awesome beach and hot tub. However there is a long narrow driveway to navigate to the actual house. which gives a short walk to the beach but it is certainly back from the water. Also this property could use some TLC. There was a tarp over the roof, missing cabinet door in the kitchen, the kitchen sink faucet was difficult to use and one element on the stove was not working. I felt it was a bit overpriced given the condition of the property

This was a nice cozy place right on the ocean. Great relaxing stay and highly reccomended

Great location and cozy spot. We were in the Cottage which was seconds from the oceans with a great view of the water from the deck. Nice, relaxing place to stay and a short drive from great hikes and all amenities. Ray was a great host and available for anything we needed. Was great we could bring our dog too. Would recommend this place to anyone.

Beautiful location, nicely equipped chalet perfect for a family getaway

We stayed here for a few days during March Break. There were two families with four kids (ages 8-20), four adults, and two dogs. The place was cozy and suited our group just fine. A stones throw to the beautiful serene ‘welcome beach’ and easy access to Sechelt and other local places to check out. The sunsets were incredible, and beach fires are allowed, making evenings on the beach really fun. Ray was a helpful host, always available to answer a quick question! Overall a very family friendly, dog friendly place to get away for a few days! We would go back for sure.

Nice Getaway

Myself and my 2 young daughters went away to finish off March break and we really enjoyed our stay. The chalet was very cozy and the beds were comfortable. We ate all our meals at the chalet and appreciated the fully stocked kitchen and the bbq. Fires on the beach, surrounded by wildlife and the hot tub on the deck was a bonus.

Great cabin and so close to the beach!

My friends and I had an incredible stay at the cabin. We loved having a view of the ocean, the hot tub and particularly loved having a campfire on the beach.

About the host

Hosted by Ray Konrad

Host profile image
Growing up spending time outdoors, camping or at the cottage with family, created many fond memories for me, sometimes just with my parent and my younger sister, and other times together with the whole extended family. Through these experiences, usually by a lake or the ocean, I understand how special these vacation times can be, bringing family closer together.

Here at Konrad Cottages I make it my goal to create the care free, comfortable, home away from home, were you our guests, can create special memories that will last a lifetime -- be it from the green grass for children to take first steps, providing beach toys, setting a campfire on the beach for first s'mores, or by offer helpful local knowledge on the great activities to choose from her on the Sunshine coast.

Why they chose this property

My parents, Peter and Maryanne Konrad, were looking for a vacation property with a safe accessible beach for swimming and boating for children and grandchildren, and for my sports fishing father who due to illness, had limited mobility. In the spring of 1984, when they saw this property on the quiet esplanade at Welcome Beach, they know their search was over.

Over the next 20 years they enjoyed gathering family with them each summer at the cottage, to enjoy family times, swimming, boating, and fishing. The property changed over those years. We added a second bedroom to the Beach Cottage first, then built the Chalet in 1992, to make room for our growing families.

My children, Theresa and Christine, and I have know this--peace of heaven--since they were born. Spending several weeks at the cottage each summer, as well as, many weekends each year, many wonderful family memories have been created here at the cottage.

With the love we had for the Halfmoon Bay area, and the special spot on Welcome Beach, my parents had discovered many years before, after the passing of my parents, in 2004 we took a leap of faith, and took over the property, and since then, it has been our pleasure to shared it with other families, couples, and groups, as a vacation rental.

What makes this property unique

The Sunshine Coast has long been a destination for cottagers, dating back to the turn of the century when the Union Steamships used to bring the wealthy ‘summer people’ up to the area, dropping them in Gibsons, Selma Park, Trail Bay, Halfmoon Bay and Pender Harbour. The tradition still exists, but these days its usually people traveling by car and looking to jettison their everyday cares for a while where life goes at a slower pace, nature is ever-present, and old-fashioned activities that promote adventurousness and togetherness dominate. Welcome to our world at Konrad Cottages in Halfmoon Bay!

Konrad Cottages offers one of the best cottage/vacation rental experiences in Coastal British Columbia. Located in Halfmoon Bay, in a neighborhood referred to as Welcome Woods, our cottages are right on the water in one of the Coast’s most beautiful ocean bays – Welcome Beach.

Welcome Beach is one of the few truly sandy beaches on the Coast, and is one of the better-kept secrets too! Limited parking for day visitors and no major facilities means that crowds typically head to Davis Bay or Porpoise Bay Park. Meanwhile you wake up in your own beachfront cabin and step right onto the beach any time you like, with all of the amenities you need handy and close by.

You can walk the beach (it’s great for off-season storm watching too), swim along the shore or out to the float, put in your kayaks or small rowboats, or just sit on the beach and soak up some sun and watch the marine traffic go by while birds like the red-beaked oyster catcher, blue heron or bald eagle hunt along the shore and shallows.

You can choose to stay either in the Cottage, a 2 bedroom bungalow with level beach access, or a 2 bedroom chalet nestled in a cedar grove, with a sunny spacious deck and views of the ocean. We hope to see you soon.
