Lots of beautiful shops within a short drive away, several lakes, lots of hikes or just grab a beach chair and enjoy the quiet location just outside your door. Pacific Shores is a private resort and that means small numbers of people at your private beach. Explore the tidal pools with the family. Walk during low tide and explore what the Salish Sea has to offer.
I am always interested in snowbirds too during our winter months. So if this is something that interests you, please contact me anytime. Big discounts during my off-season and what a beautiful location to explore the Island and mild climate. Guests coming and need more space, rent the B unit and open up the space back up to the two bedroom, two bathroom. Our cleaners can come in and take care of the cleaning, laundry and then upon their departure, lock the connecting doors back up and you enjoy your unit with no stress.
There is lots of extra parking under the pickleball courts and also a gravel lot if you have an extra height vehicle as well.
Come and explore Pacific Shores Resort and stay and relax in my Creekside Retreat unit.
I will be excited to host you and your family soon.

Oh I am sorry you didn't really know what was included in your rental. In the description of the property, I tell guests what they have access to with the amenities cards. You are welcome back anytime and I hope you take advantage of what this beautiful resort has to offer. Thank you for the 5* review. I appreciate that.

Thank you Tracy for that fantastic review. I’m so glad to hear you had a relaxing stay and look forward to hosting you again soon!
Fantastic rental unit, lovely sunsets from the balcony and included access to all the amenities like pool, hot tub, kayaks, SUP boards (which some units do not). Simple check-in and check-out process. Would definitely stay in this unit again.
The host made check-in super easy and everything was as described. The condo was really nice, and well-appointed with everything we needed. Even the sofa bed was comfortable! The location is excellent; it's right on the beach with a pool, hot tubs, and lots of other amenities. Definitely planning to stay here again.

Thank you, Sreeni for being such excellent and easy guests. Looking forward to you and your family coming back soon!
Take care, Kim
A clean, comfortable condo with all the amenities and a spectacular view. Easy access via elevator, plenty of convenient parking, lovely large balcony. Kim is congenial and easy to contact. We will be back.
My husband and I had a lovely two-week stay in Kim's condo. The pictures of the unit were accurate. It's a bright, light 4th floor unit with a wonderful view, a resident crane, easy parking, a king bed, and an elevator. It has all the comforts of home. Kim is organized, and the condo has everything to make your stay both comfortable and convenient. The grounds of the complex are well tended with a waterfront trail and viewing decks with comfy chairs. The facilities on the property include a fitness room, pool, hot tub, and a great restaurant- Pacific Moon. It has a great view, a pleasant Happy Hour crowd, and prime-rib dinners on Saturday night with live music. The condo is convenient to Parksville, several beaches, and local provincial parks with beachfront trails and promenades. All said, it is a great place to vacation even in February.

Beautiful condo in a very quiet setting. Many trails and areas to wander & explore. We used this as our home base to explore Vancouver Island up & down the east coast. The condo is part of a resort with lots of amenities such as pool/hot tub, sauna, pickle ball courts & so on. We didn’t have the time to use all of these but they were all available & certainly not over crowded during our stay. Our hosts were great with easy communication. We reccomend this property whole heartedly. Thank you Kim & Shawna.
