About this apartment rental
Wonderful beachfront condo adjacent to Rathtrevor Provincial Park in Parksville, on the east coast of Vancouver Island, on Georgia Strait (recently renamed the Salish Sea). You will witness the ever-changing natural beauty and wildlife of the West Coast , including migrating blackbrants, eagles and hawks nesting in the surrounding forest, water birds such as herons and egrets, seals surfacing at high tide and early morning/late evening sightings of deer, rabbits and quail.
Sunrise will greet you with warmth and light flooding through large panoramic windows, into the living room, dining room and kitchen. You can be the first to make your tracks across the pristine, rippled sand after the waves have erased yesterday’s creations. Witness the awesome sight of a full moon painting a swath of light on the water and watch it slowly sink into the sea from your window, or even better, go outside and see the brilliance of the star studded night sky, undiminished by the glow of city lights.
Our unit is a haven nestled in a spectacular setting, on the second floor of a beachfront fourplex. Even while relaxing inside, you can enjoy the majesty of nature and life around you. Being outside is exhilarating and a wonderful antidote to the busyness and stress of life. Prepare to unwind, relax and simplify your life.

This second-story condo was perfect for our wishes to enjoy the beachfront of Parksville. It had everything we needed, including a second bedroom for our guests. It’s on the second floor which gave us two balconies, and a wonderful view of the beach and the local wildlife. Highly recommended!

Just steps to the beach, we walked way, way out when the tide was out, and were amazed at how warm the water was at high tide. We enjoyed the upper balcony, watching the moon come up. Everything you needed was supplied, beds were comfortable. We will be back for sure, thank you!

Lovely condo in a quiet neighbourhood overlooking the beach and ocean in Parksville. Close to park, hikes and biking trails. Very clean property and well equipped. It was absolutely beautiful and we will be back. Donna was a super host. Thank you

Our staycation in Parksville was made perfect by staying in this magnificent top floor condo right on the beach. During high tide you could hear the waves crashing onto the shore. Watching families and dogs enjoying their time on the beach was a treat.
The unit had everything we needed. It was clean, cozy and classy.
Thank you for letting us enjoy your piece of paradise.

We couldn’t have asked for a better place to be over the holidays! We were able to watch storms, walk in the snow and the sun. Everything you could want was in this lovely home. Can’t wait to come again! Thanks so much Donna for sharing your lovely home!

You cannot ask for a better location for a getaway! Near shops and the Grotto Spa as well as amazing views and walking trails. Can’t imagine how beautiful it would be in summer but we enjoyed every minute. Thank you!!

We absolutely love Rathtrevor Beach and have been vacationing there for years. This home is fantastic location, however we were disappointed by the hosts inability to change plans 5 months out and ended up having to give our booking away. We booked this home and one other home in October 2021 for a June 25-July 2, 2022 trip to give as a Christmas gift to parents and grandparents. On Jan 24, 2022 (5 months prior to our arrival) I reached out as due to health conditions out family would not be able to travel anymore and we would be coming from Florida so couldn't make it work. The other home refunded our money without questions, however Donna was unwilling to work with us, even though we offered to cover the cost if she would try putting it back on VRBO and no one else rented or even cover any price difference. I run VRBO homes as well and know that you can do this and I am positive the dates would have rented as it was peak week and was fully booked the rest of the summer and still 5 months away. Long story short, we were stuck with the home and ended up giving it away family members who lived closer but I am a little disappointed in the inability to help.
Overall, love the area but BE AWARE that there is ZERO CANCELLATION POLICY!

The building was easy to find, the location was absolutely picturesque. The property was very clean and well equipped with everything we needed. Communication with Donna was easy and she responded quickly. Walking along the beach was a highlight. My only comment to other renters is if it snows heavily, as it did while we were there, an all wheel drive vehicle is required to get up the hill from the unit (or alternatively, park at the top of the hill and walk to the property). Overall we are extremely satisfied with our experience, and would certainly recommend to anyone.

Lovely location and views. Bedding arrangements could be improved upon. No head board on bed in master suite,. Bed slides away from wall. Second bedroom comfortable for children only. Not for a couple. Ants in the unit.

Perfect for a girls getaway, the condo has fabulous views and access to beach. If you want to do a spa treatment at Tigh-Na-Mara, you can walk short distance down the beach and up a walkway right to that resort and spa.

Sunrise over the water fills the suite with the most amazing light and the changing weather was fascinating to watch. Never tired of the view.

We had a fabulous time. We went for beach walks and enjoyed walking through the forest in the park in the adjoining property. This centrally located home allowed us to get to other hiking areas nearby. The home was a welcome retreat from busy days and offered comfortable areas in which to relax and observe the ever-changing mountain and ocean views. Everything that we could possibly need for a short family vacation was available in this spotless home.
