Fabulous location and resort.
The resort is very well maintained, with a fabulous outdoor rock hot-tub and awesome beach access. It was nice to be on the ground floor so that we could easily take our dogs outside. A lovely stay and we hope to return.

My 5 year old and I enjoyed our trip away very much. Lots to do on site (pools/hot tubs, playground, walking trails, games room). The suite is much bigger than the photos make it seem and very well equipped. We would love to stay again!

Perfect getaway Home
We wanted to stay near the ocean, there is a beautiful view from the walkout. We loved the gazebo with fire tables. The outdoor pool and outdoor hot tub were great . Paul was patient through the entire process. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking our own food. This was exactly what I was hoping for whenI booked it. Thank you for making it easy. We enjoyed ourselves .

Not exactly as advertised
This property is advertised as having air conditioning, but it does not. When I checked in I asked about the discrepancy and if there was more than one fan available, and received a response about another question I asked but no response whatsoever about the lack of a/c and fans. The windows don’t open and there is no screen door to the front door, so it wasn’t possible to bring down the temperature much even overnight. Most of the time this wouldn’t be an issue, but we visited during a heat wave (temps over 90), so it was tough to sleep. The property is otherwise nice enough.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Has BUGS
I tried to communicate in a friendly way that their cleaners arent doing their job. I guess the cleaners are their friends so they must be regardless of the bugs left to be found in teh room the immense amount of dust under the head of the bed and the black mould under thw caulking of teh tub. I moved to a different room that was not privately owned that had hotel cleaning standards and also was beautifully clean and had NO BUGS... they gave me a partial refund after sending them pictures and videos proving what i said to be true ... but i only stayed 1 night and paid for 1 week .. to be sent back $400 out of $1200 and told i dont deserve the rest back is just a kick in the teeth if you ask me. Very rude. DEAL WITH YOUR BUG PROBLEM BEFORE YOU INFEST THE ENTIRE HOTEL!

A place to connect with family and nature
The 2 suit design providedThe plenty of room, and privacy for two couples, a teen and a dog. What we loved most is the accessibility to the ocean— no more than a minutes walk— as well as the decks and views. The bay is warm, shallow, and a wonderful to explore. We brought 2 paddle boards. Though we are only beginners, the tranquil waters could be navigated quite easily. Walks on the beach happened every day. We also enjoyed eating out on the deck at the Pacific Moon Bar and Grill on two occasions. The service was fantastic and the food very enjoyable, and filling. We appreciated that we could take our dog on the patio. The view from the patio deck, especially at sunset, completed the dining experience. This is a wonderful location and a great place to create memories with family.

Great Location, nice comfortable place for families
Beautiful location, steps from the beach. Bottom unit so easy access for walking along the beachside trails. Nice beds but pull out couch a bit uncomfortable. Close to many great places to visit. Really easy check and check out and owners very responsive to our needs/questions.

A Little Slice of Heaven
We had a delightful stay at this pet-friendly resort in Nanoose Bay! I started to relax the minute we set foot on the property. The condo was spotless and exactly as advertised. The property manager was friendly and responsive. We loved being on the ground floor "creekside" and close to the trails for our dog walks. The morning and evening views of the bay from the nearby lookout point were spectacular. There were even two deep soaker tubs to enjoy in the condo!! The layout was perfect for our family of five and we definitely hope to stay there again. Thank you, Paul and Candace!

Great Stay - So well equipped for a vacation +++
I have stayed in a few ABNB places and a few regular hotel rooms. This was by far the most welcoming place my family has stayed at. Not only did it have everything we would normally expect, the kitchen was extrememly well supplied with niceties the room also had an unopened game of Life. We took the liberty of having three games. For my wife and I it was nostalgia for my son - who won the games he thought the game was great. The pool was clean. The staff really pleasant. Nice that COVID has not caused a reduction in top notch services, treatment and friendliness. Strongly recommended !!

Great location!
We loved the location of Pacific Shores and it’s proximity to many beautiful beach accesses and hiking trails! It was a bonus to be able to walk the beach to Rathtrevor. The suite is at the end of its building and close to stairs and an elevator for unloading the car. The suite is much bigger than it looks in the photos and has tons of space. The ‘B side’ offers a lot of privacy when you are staying with other friends. The suit is situated about a 5 minute walk to a good sized indoor swimming pool and gym. You are outside for this walk. There is also a pickle ball court. The outside spaces, gazebos and barbecue areas located on the property for everyone to use are great! There is a waterfront walking path around the perimeter of the property and lots of public green space. The suite feels very private and is quiet other than some loud, unavoidable, indoor plumbing sounds coming from the suite upstairs occasionally. This place had everything we needed for a comfortable three night stay.
