You'll love our Full Size Heated Pool (May-October) and Jacuzzi (year-round), with its breathtaking backdrop of endless ocean, islands and mountains. Invigorate in a game of Tennis in our outdoor court or gather firewood for the Beach Fire-pit. Relax on our sunny 100 ft.-long Pier (seasonal), where you may be greeted by a passing seal, blue heron, or soaring eagle. A family of sea otters often gather to play at the pier's end. Our onsite caretaker maintains our manicured gardens and we invite you to pick your own herbs from our gardens. A Children's Play area and Laundry Facilities are on the grounds.
You will be embraced by the beauty and culture of life on Vancouver Island. We are convenient to many things to see and do and close to fabulous restaurants, such as the Award-Winning Mahle House and Crow & Gate Pub.

Pacific Ocean Condo - Relaxing Getaways, Views, Pool, Jacuzzi
Why the Owner Chose Ladysmith
When we first discovered this place, we fell in love with the peacefulness and tranquility of the area that we have rarely experienced anywhere else. There are miles of shoreline to explore and your very own private beach. We would love to share our home with you and we have thought of all the extras for your comfort to make you feel like it is your "home away from home". You will feel pampered, relaxed and rejuvenated as this beautiful natural setting and ocean fresh air is second to none. Treat yourself to paradise - you deserve it!
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
Experience heart-stopping sunrises and unforgetable sunsets right from your private suite! The peaceful location of our condo, at the quiet end of the resort, maximizes the privacy and tranquility. Often you will see thousands of huge purple starfish amongst the rocks and in the tidal pools, a conglomeration of birds calling out to each other, a blue heron inspecting the shoreline at sunrise, a bald eagle overseeing the resort then flying overhead and dipping its wing at you, a seal bobbing up in the waters, many types of boats passing through the Strait, a family of sea otters playing at the end of the sunny pier and occasionally Orca whales passing through the Strait. At night there are trillions of stars to gaze at, as the moon lowers on the glistening sea and the waves gently lap to shore. So quiet. Peaceful. Mesmerizing. Come play and enjoy life at its best!
Fabulous self-guided country tour to experience local artisans, art galleries, etc. and opportunity to purchase quality crafts. Special summer and Christmas (November) tours are especially fun! You will love the gently rolling countryside that changes with the seasons.
Explore the beautiful rain forests on a walk that leads to the ocean.
If you enjoy the pubs in England, then come visit the lovely gardens and great food (such as fresh crab cakes) at this very popular pub, only 8 minutes away.
Our calm waters are great for kayaking, rentals nearby. Keep an eye out for whales, they are occasionally seen passing through the Strait!
Adventure park for all to enjoy... zip lining and bungee jumping in lush setting, only 10 minutes away.
Owner's Map of Ladysmith
Hi! Thank you for taking the time to learn about our "piece of paradise". Here you have caught me shucking oysters in Oyster Bay, adjacent to our condo!
When we have the opportunity to stay here ourselves, we have the most wonderful time!! I love getting up early with an incredible sunrise and a cup of coffee in hand to leisurely roam the beach or just sit out at Pier's end watching sea life and listening to the lapping of waves on the dock. Often I will spot a bald eagle, blue heron or seal amongst the sea gulls.
I really enjoy the calm waters, abundance of sea life, the huge purple starfish, the tidal pools and natural vegetation and scent and taste of pure fresh salty ocean air on my face. I enjoy the proximity to the multitude of things to see and do in the area. It keeps me busy exploring, as there is so much to see and do! Kayaking is great and I really had fun tree ziplining!
I regularly visit the local farmer markets - fresh produce, preserves, crafts and baking! The one at the Crowe and Gate Pub grounds is less than 10 minutes away. And the fabulous Yellowpoint/Cedar Artisan's Tour is a yearly event!
We have had many fabulous family celebrations here! Cooking up a storm is easy in our well-appointed kitchen. It is great too when we can pick our own herbs from the oceanside gardens, which everyone is welcome to share.
On another note, I find it extremely restful just reading a book in solitude on the beach or soaking up some rays on our sunny balcony. Floating in our heated full size Oceanside pool with a cold drink in hand is pretty wonderful too... you can hear the surf below while experiencing wrap-around panoramic views. The surf can also be heard from our private condo when taking a nap. What luxury!
Hope you can come and join us soon to experience "paradise" for yourself!

We can’t believe that 7 days have gone already! Thank you for such an enjoyable stay. After a busy 2 weeks travelling through the Rockies from Calgary, we wanted to spend a week totally relaxing – and we did! Thank you for thinking of everything – even umbrellas! We loved the beach, the pool, the view, the tennis, the DVD’s – everything. We enjoyed zip lining at Wild Play and our highlight was a whale-watching trip out of Victoria. Serveral whales seen and a couple even breached out of the water for us! A fantastic week - thank you! Lincolnshire, England

This has been possibly the nicest place we have ever stayed on vacation. The condo is lovely and we really enjoyed walking the beach looking at the seastars. We also had a great time salmon fishing (35 lb. fish!), going to the market in Coombs (goats on the roof) and just exploring the island. Thanks so much! We want to come back!

We all enjoyed your marvelous accommodations and the facilities that came with it. Your warm hospitality and attention to every detail made our stay extra special. Our week went by so quickly and was filled with beach combing, beach walks, swimming (pool and ocean) and glorious dinners on the deck. The location of your “piece of paradise” was very central for us. We had visitors from Germany and traveled from Victoria to Gold River visiting many sights in- between. Our visitors were totally enthralled with the scenery, especially the unbelievable vistas from your windows. One could never tire of this lovely spot. We hope to return in the near future and take time to soothe our souls and immerse ourselves in the ambience. Thanks! Wayne & ReginaVancouver, BC P.S. We took the opportunity to visit most of the artisans on the small map of your area. They were great!

Written in the Guestbook: Thank you very much for sharing your home. Your suggestions for "spots to see and visit" were greatly appreciated. Your place was absolutely perfect for us to use as a home base. The unit had all the comforts of home and more! What a beautiful view we enjoyed morning, daytime and night - from the sunrise to the rising moon! We definitely plan on coming back here. Thank you. It was very relaxing!

We have had an amazing time here. Thanks for your warm welcome and hospitality. The view is spectacular. People have been friendly. The fireplace was warm and cozy - setting the scene for family nights playing games, watching DVD movies and listening to music. We will never forget.

Tonight is our last night here and we have had a super time exploring Vancouver Island. We have spent an amazing month here enjoying the wonderful weather. I am so happy that I picked this condo as our location. It was scary to pick a home base online and go with it. This was everything and more that was advertised. Beautiful!

We'd like to thank you for sharing this magnificent place with us. The ocean view and the peace and quietness of the resort were a marvelous ending to the time we spent on Vancouver Island. It certainly was one of the highlights of our trip to Canada. We will highly recommend Absolute Oceanfront to all our friends in Europe. Thanks a lot for allowing us to stay, we will certainly never forget.

We've traveled so far by plane, ferry and car but didn't have a notion how beautiful it was at Absolute Oceanfront. Tranquility reigns and the so scenic views have rejuvenated our souls! Back to Vancouver to get on the plane with such lovely memories that will forever remain. We have traveled all over the world and feel that your condo has been one of the best places in the world that we have ever stayed at! With many thanks.
