Wonderful Clean Place in Parksville
We had a wonderful say. It was our first VRBO experience and we will do it again. This place was so clean and so well appointed and the location was in perfect proximity to the beach. I liked it so much more than hotel. The host Aileen was so nice and made us feel right at home.

Everything in one spot
This property is fully loaded and tastefully decorated. The kitchen has everything you would need. The gardens are lovely and many beach access points are within walking distance. Loved bird watching at the estuary. Great instruction book on site. We’d definitely stay here again. Thanks Aileen!

Perfect Location & Wonderful Experience
I absolutely love Parksville and this was the perfect place to enjoy it from. It's tucked away right at the edge of the town so it's convenient but it feels like you're a million miles away from everything distracting. We could hear and see the ocean and even smell the fresh salt air! Everything was clean, easy to understand and perfectly laid out. We had complete privacy yet we knew that our hosts were close by if needed. I'd stay again without hesitation.

Location is amazing and although not directly on the beach, you can walk over to it. this place is extremely clean, high attention to detail on everything inside this lovely place. We found it very quiet and relaxing. Private parking space included and close to a bird sanctuary and a short drive to restaurants and groceries.
too much to love! Highly recommend this place.

Perfection
This place was a gem. Location is perfect and just steps to the ocean. These accommodations were stylish, comfortable and came with everything we needed to enjoy our stay, and then some! The kitchen was fully stocked with every utensil or item you could need. Our host Aileen went above and beyond to make our stay the best! Right down to fresh coffee beans and fresh cut flowers awaiting our arrival! Thank you for making our first VRBO experience incredible😀😀

Positive Plus Experience at the Polished Pebble
We loved staying at the Polished Pebble—quiet residential neighborhood; Clean with a capital C;
Helpful, detailed instructions about appliances, recycling, and checkout procedures. Aileen, the host, was very helpful with some scheduling issues we had.
The 2bedroom unit is gorgeous—beautifully decorated, with great attention to thoughtful details— a real delight to stay here with private beach access.
Don’t miss the nearby Animal Recovery Sanctuary—it’s incredible and the Country Store with goats living on the roof! Highly recommend this one!

Beware the stairs
The first thing we noticed was the 14 step staircase to get up to this lovely place. We are seniors and it was a lot to bring up all you take for a 10 day stay! Our host knew our ages (75 &87) and did not make us aware of this and a photo on the website would certainly have been helpful.
Yes there is a washer and dryer but one would need to stand on a stool or chair to read the panel for the dryer.
This place has stunning decor! The kitchen does not leave you wanting for anything. All appliance are top quality.
Very deep tub to step up into for a shower and no safety grab bar. There should be a step stool if you need anything from even the second shelves in kitchen.
That sounds like a lot of complaining but it is an honest review of our experience here.
The stairs preclude us from a second stay.
