Comfortable and clean

My sister and I recently had a wonderful stay at your condo. The rooms were beautiful and comfortable, everything you could ever need was there. The kitchen is wonderful even though we treated ourselves and ate out for the most part. I did have my morning cup of tea before starting my day, I bought milk but didn't think to see if you had sugar just assumed there would be something, and no there is not. So be prepared if you need a little sweetening like me, bring it along! There was construction going on across the way, but it goes on mostly during the hours we were out exploring or on the beach, they were very good about shutting it down by 4:30, and not starting up till 8am. Lovely place would recommend

Perfect get away location

My sisters and I took my mom to the island for her 70th. This condo was the perfect location for us to explore Rathtrevor, Qualicum, Coombs…it was clean, comfortable, had everything we needed (stocked kitchen with dishes etc) and allowed us to relax and enjoy each other’s company. The beds were super comfortable and there were more than enough linens. The beach chairs, toys and wagon are a great touch!!

Modern Townhouse

Although Sunrise Ridge is still under construction, the Sandcastle Shores Townhouse was quiet and very well appointed. The four girls ranging in age from 8 years to 14 years loved sharing 2 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms and I (the doting grandmother) loved my privacy downstairs on the pull out couch, with another bathroom and nice patio to sit out on at night. The kitchen has every possible appliance, cooking tools, and dishes. Nice dining room table that seats 6 people easily. The highlight for me was the easy access to the trail to the beach with beautiful moon-rises each night and a full rainbow the one rainy day. The highlight for the grand-daughters was the fitness centre and the hot tub. Each day we enjoyed a few different beaches, parks, forests, and other places in the Parksville/Qualicum area. The Bayside Cafe is a hidden gem for coffee, breakfast and light lunches.

This property was perfect for us. Very quiet with a very comfortable bed and well stocked kitchen. We didn't use the community pool and hot-tub only because we were too busy walking the beach everyday and exploring the island. We would definitely stay here again.

Very Lovely. We had a beautiful stay.

Beautiful, quiet, very clean, tidy and well stocked. Owner had very good communication. New surrounding construction blocking what would have been the original view was unfortunate and main entrance was not well marked. We eventually did find our way without having to contact owner. The check-in and check-out was very easy. We didn't make our way to the community pool but it seemed very popular. We had a very lovely stay and the location is great for access to the surrounding landmarks and everything we needed. Thank so much.

Host profile image
I live in Nanaimo and spend summers in Parksville. Boating, hiking and beach fun. My favourite place for sunsets are at Parksville City Park

Why they chose this property

I feel a sense of calm near the ocean and enjoy peaceful walks through the sand looking at tide pools and exploring. My favourite place is Rathtrevor beach to see Sand Dollar. Parksville is a special place to enjoy all the above.

What makes this property unique

Our beautiful Sandcastle shores newly built townhome is surrounded by Nature and the waterfront property is just minutes to Rathtrevor Beach, spas and restaurants and Parksville.
