This is our second stay and we will continue to try and book this property for our family’s Parksville holidays. It’s close to the beach, walking to the mini golf and very family friendly (toys and books). We love it here.

We had a great stay. Loved the location. Less then a minute walk to the ocean. Beach was fantastic. Kids loved it. Beds were comfortable. I just wished there were better pillows. If we return to the area we would definitely stay here again.

It was our third time in the Tanglewood complex. We love the location and the beach. It’s quiet and beautiful.
The condo was very comfortable. The beds are good. Maybe we had been spoiled before, but we were surprised to find bare cupboards, not even salt.
Despite this slight disappointment, we had a great stay!

Family vacation
Archie is a great host. The three level three bedroom townhouse with garage is the perfect place for any group to stay and play. Townhouse is a short walk to the beach and ocean views from the top two levels. We hope to visit again next summer.

Fantastic place so close to the beach
Easy check-in, parking, garage for storage of bikes and paddleboards, beach level make it so easy to hang out and the beach and even run back for the washroom or if you forget something.
Always enjoy our time here, which is why we've been back so many times. Hard to beat

Fantastic!
All around great experience! Archie was wonderful to work with; great communication, accurate description of property. We spent a glorious 11 nights at this property and loved every minute. Plenty of space for family of six with four teenagers. We loved how bright and airy the condo was, having the beach just steps away, and also took advantage of the trails in the park next door. I enjoyed morning coffee on the balcony with ocean view.
We visited Coombs, Qualicum Beach, Englishman River Provincial Park, Little Qualicum Falls Provincial Park, Cathedral Grove, and Cameron Lake, plus day trips to Nanaimo and Newcastle Island, Victoria and Ucluelet/Tofino, and many hours of enjoyment on Rathtrevor beach. We found this property an ideal location as a home base for all the places we wanted to see. Love the Parksville area! Would not hesitate to book again if/when we return. Thanks, Archie, for a great experience!

Family Gathering at the beach
We rented 2 units which are side by side for a family gathering of 8. The location is ideal. We enjoyed morning coffee at the beach which was a short walk from the units. Kitchens are well stocked with all the tools for cooking. We would rent these units again.

Family vacation
Archie was a great host, he was very accommodating and quick to answer questions. The property is a great location with lots of room. Just a few things need some updating, like kitchen faucet, and a few window blinds need fixing, as they were hard to close without the turning mechanism, especially the spare bedroom upstairs where we were trying to keep it dark for our kiddos. Overall a great stay!

Lovely Stay
There aren't many places we have previously stayed that we would consider returning to, but this would be one of them! Easy check in/out. Great location close to all attractions, clean and spacious for a family of 5.

Condo near Rathtrevor Park
It is a very large 3 bedroom condo near Rathtrevor. So quick to walk the trails of the park without driving. It is easy to walk by yourself or as a group, without having to do everything together.

Perfect for getting to the beach
Archie was so wonderful and made sure we had everything to be comfortable. We spent two weeks there and will be back. It was perfect and nice that you didn’t have to haul beach stuff down and up the hill like the other units. We loved the stay. Thanks Archie

Nice to come back to a property you know you will be comfortable in and can get straight on with recharging the batteries. Clean, well equipped, very comfy, quiet, great value and perfectly located, I'm sure we'll be back for another visit.
We love it there...
Thanks Archie...

Perfect place for a break
We really enjoyed our stay with our small children. The walk to the beach was so close even the toddler could walk it no problem, making it a great activity for between nap and dinner!
We really appreciated how stocked the kitchen was, lots of cookware and dishes (including plastic plates and bowls for the kids). As the listing says, there is plenty of room in the second bedroom door a pack-n-play, and the bottom bunk is low enough for easy access to a short preschooler. Speaking of beds, the king in the master is so comfortable (soft and yet supportive).
Overall we really enjoyed our family break and we hope to come back again sometime when the world seems a bit more normal!
5.0 / 5.0
Excellent getaway, private setting!
Fantastic location, very quiet. Easily the best spot to get back into town, or take a quick stroll to the beach. Pictures don't do it justice, in person the rental is much better! Will be back again soon!
