Thank you Scott for letting us rent this very nice Condo for 34 days. This stay far exceeded our expectations. The condo is very beautiful and practically furnished. The kitchen and the bathrooms are very richly equipped. There are also many indoor and outdoor games available for the guests. If we come to Canada again we would like to rent this condo again, and we will be more than happy to recommend it to families and friends.

We loved this property…condo was beautiful and well appointed, ocean views were wonderful. Would stay again in a heartbeat! Cell service in the area was spotty, but definitely not a deal breaker!

The decor is exceptional. The equipping of the kitchen along with everything else in the unit is exceptional. The variety of hiking trails within a 40-minute drive is exceptional. Our holiday there was exceptionally peaceful and pleasurable. A small glitch is the spotty cellular coverage, but that became a positive: less cellular time -- more reading and walking time and more peace and feeling "away. " (And there is a working landline.) So, on balance: exceptional! I could use alternate words, but "exceptional" is what our holiday there was.

Lovely property outside of Nanaimo, close to the water. I spent a month there while working nearby. It’s a lovely escape from the city but a short drive to all of the necessities. I enjoyed the views every morning with my coffee and partook in the hot tub often during the week when it was a bit less busy. The condo is well equipped with everything you need. The only thing I wished it had was in suite laundry, but there is laundry on the premises if you need it. Would stay there again!

We spent a wonderful month (Sept 15-Oct 15) at this lovely location. Our condo was spotless, fully equipped, with many extra supplies we didn't expect. The bath robes, toiletries, spices, pool towels, and other kitchen supplies were a nice added touch. The view from both floors of our unit was breathtaking. We used the heated pool and hot tub every day. The grounds and pool were kept immaculate, and maintenance staff were friendly. There was ample parking even on the busy Thanksgiving long weekend. Our hosts were great at communicating with us and taking care of our needs. Would highly recommend staying at Inn of the Sea Resort!!

Very clean and fully equiped condo on a superb site.

Couldn't have asked for much more. Renovated top to bottom inside with a pool overlooking the beach. As a family, we paddle boarded up and down the coast line and saw lots of wildlife. Would certainly stay there again.

What a fabulous mini vacation with my daughter and grandkids who I hadn't seen in almost a year due to COVID border restrictions. There were so many activities to do right on the property Swim, tennis, bocce' ball, horseshoes, and all the necessary equipment to do them. Never once did anyone say "I'm bored" lol! The condo itself was very well appointed with very comfy beds, bedding and a fully stocked kitchen. The barb-cues on the property were also clean and ready to use if you so chose.

Beautiful property in a secluded area. Very well equipped. Modern decor. Right on the beach. Stunning sunrise. Would stay again.

Beautiful property in an amazing location. The owner and property manager were both wonderful to work with. We will be planning another stay at this property again.

This property was clean and beautifully decorated. The beds were very comfortable as was the rest of the furniture. The view is stunning and the ocean-side pool was heated and enjoyable to swim in - even in the rain! We enjoyed tide-pool discovery adventures and our 4-year-old loved the playground. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful and comfortable getaway.

Beautiful location and an incredible vacation getaway- fully stocked kitchen - comfortable and spotlessly clean - loved every minute

What a wonderful spot. A quiet area not far from Nanaimo right on the ocean. We had a blast scouting all the ocean creatures, from jellyfish and crabs to fish and sea stars. The pool and hot tub are great, overlooking the ocean and spotting seals and otters while we're swimming. The condo was clean and very nice. The only caveat is that the cell service around the condo is spotty at best, though the internet is strong, so we used the wifi for calling and the condo's VoIP phone. We had a blast and hope to come back again sometime!

Highly recommend this property. We stayed in this lovely place for three months. It was exactly as described/shown in the listing and had basically everything you can need or want for a long-term stay. Many big and little touches make this feel like a premium escape: from high quality linens to comfortable beds, from heated tile floors to high speed internet. For anyone working remotely, the wifi is reliable and has good speed for video calls. As described in the listing, mobile coverage isn't really available here, but this isn't an issue if you have a mobile phone with wifi calling. The kitchen is stocked with nearly everything needed for cooking and baking, including a waffle iron, hand mixer, blender, etc. The laundry facility is a short walk across the parking lot and is $3 each for washing and drying. There are grocery stores within a 15 minute drive. This is the place for you if you're looking for peace and quiet. We enjoyed watching the sun come up over the water and walking a short way down the road to a little park. There are tennis and badminton racquets for playing on the property's court. A short drive away is a larger park where you can walk a bit on a short trail. There aren't any good places for biking right near the property, though. You'll need to drive a bit to find those. Communication with the host was easy and we had no issues or complaints about the property. An excellent overall experience that we would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing, comfy place to stay.

Was perfect for our family

Amazing place to stay for a vacation or weekend getaway. Place was very clean, spacious rooms. Beds as well. Looked newly renovated. Very lovely place.

We really enjoyed our stay to Scott and Patricia's place! The appartment is as stunning as the view. Very well furnished. 2 kings beds. So I could sleep with my kids. you can also sleep in the 2 couches. A lot of Towell for the pool. The gaz fire place is marvelous. Warm pool, calm and respectful environment! Family friendly with many games and TV with Netflix is a big + We will definitely come back! Thanks again!

Amazing condo with incredible views and a great pool for the kids. Highly recommended.

This suite has been nicely updated and had everything you could need. The view is amazing and close to the pool. Would highly recommend for families or getaway with friends.

Everything was excellent. We enjoyed the pool and the hot tub. Great amenities, great views, well appointed.

The property was wonderful, spacious and clean. The uninterrupted view to the ocean was gorgeous. Would definitely book again!

Lovely trip

Perfect condo for two couples... We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the only thing unfortunately was the heatwave and their was only one fan in the unit... But Scott helped us out by bringing out another one 😁 would love to go again and stay.

We stayed a month and had a great time. The communication before was good, giving us all the information we needed in advance. Scott made sure to introduce himself and offer his help. The place itself is clean, modern, spacious and very well equipped. The view is great and the pool, hot tub and access to the ocean all very nice and convenient. We liked the little community of the property and had nice conversations on the fire pit with other guests and owners. The groundskeeper Roland is also super nice and keeps everything super well in shape. I’d argue almost too well as the only downside really is that most weekday mornings (the best time to enjoy the sun on the terrace) there is some kind of noise from lawn mowers or leaf blowers as they keep the grounds in tip top shape. But that really is complaining on the highest level as we had such a great time and would definitely come back again.

I requested to book & the owner emailed 2 different excuses why I could not book, which was fine. 5 hours later my credit card was charged for the VRBO booking & an email confirmation was received. It was alot of work to have everything reversed. I will never deal with this owner again.

Easy great spot and clean.

Everything about our six week experience was absolutely splendid. From the time we enquired about booking, until our departure, Scott was quick to respond to our queries and concerns. All issues were addressed respectfully, professionally, and promptly. Scott is a most kind and knowledgeable ambassador for Vancouver Island.We parked just a few steps from our door. Upon entering our unit we discovered the breathtaking ocean view. The recently redecorated condo unit is very clean and spacious. It is situated on a beautifully manicured rural oceanfront property, where roses were blooming in late October.The kitchen is amply stocked with lovely dishes, glassware, cutlery, pots and pans, and bakeware. As well, every necessary appliance was there for our use.Both king size beds were very comfortable, fitted with lovely linens. Each ensuite bath had a generous supply of towels.Needless to say, we look forward to our next visit.With gratitude,Tom and Brenda

Our family had an amazing time during our stay at Scott’s condo. The kids had a great time using the pool each day as well as exploring the beachfront every time the tide went out. The condo was extremely clean and had everything we needed as far as cooking our own meals. We would highly recommend anyone considering staying here as we will definitely try to make this an annual trip.

We had an amazing time and too short of a visit at Scott's place. The unit is stocked with tons of extras like games for the kids (half of which we didn't get to). It reminded us of our stays at Hawaii (over the ocean, close to the pool). We are definitely coming back next year!

Very helpful and quick to answer. Beautifully decorated and a pleasure to stay at. Our dream vacation :) Would love to stay anytime.
