This condo was in great condition. Absolutely clean and tidy. I was only disappointed that the main clubhouse had all the water sport equipment closed as well as the restaurant. Their season ended on Labour Day.

We were blown away by how great Gary's place is! The access to the ocean and other amenities was better than expected. We ended up canceling some of our outings just to spend more time enjoying the property. Perfect for our group of ten!

This property was lovely and the host was super nice and easy to deal with. A great place for a large family. The amenities at this location were also very nice. The per night rental fee was totally fair, the only thing that surprised me was the additional fees. But I am new to using VRBO so I guess I’m an old fart who needs to get used to the way the world works now.

Our family of 4, plus our dog thoroughly enjoyed staying here! Beautiful, very large 3 bedroom unit in Pacific Shores resort. Could not get over the ocean view and the property. It was the perfect home away from home! Would definitely stay again! Thanks so much!

Fantastic location and beautiful home! This spacious vrbo has everything you need and then some. So grateful for the high chair and beach toys for our grandchildren. The beach combing was perfection! Plus the pool and hot tub were fantastic. Highly recommend.

My guests loved this location. Being able to watch sunsets from the lawn or stroll down to the water was such a joy. One of the guests who wanted to use the fitness centre pass was unable to make it work, so she headed out for a jog around the property instead. It's a great layout for a group of women wanting to relax and would definitely rent this property again!

The resort is very peaceful. It is great place to walk from whether it be on the beach or on walking trails. The house is well equipped and the layout is very accommodating for extended family stays. Great host and very responsive regardless of the time contacted. We will definitely consider staying here again!

Great place for an extended family trip! Location was amazing with the beach access right there. Kids hot tub/pools and playground was an extra bonus. Kitchen was well stocked and we didn’t feel anything was lacking! Would definitely recommend and stay again.

The unit exceeded our expectations. Lots of room for six adults and four pre-teens. The location was stunning, right on the beach. The kids didn’t leave the property the whole time, other than to walk along the beach. And didn’t want to leave when it was time to check out. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils, dishes and pots - we had brought our own just in case! Thanks to Gary and his family for sharing it with us. It is a special place.

Beautiful location and access to the ocean. Fire pits on a deck overlooking the water. Peaceful. Unit was spacious and inviting. Amenities for the resort although accessible rather costly for a young family 25 per adult. Not these owners issue just a comment for reference.
A short path to the beach, and views from the home.

Beautiful view especially at sunset. Very spacious and great it was pet friendly! Lovely to be able to walk on the beach The indoor pool was ok….. bit crowded with young kids having lessons Outdoor hot tub was great thoCouple of minor details that could be improved ……Instructions for dishwasher as it didn’t always turn on and seemed a bit random as to which cycle works bestWe would have preferred unscented dish soap and laundry soap as the scents were very strong ( especially the laundry ) The Frig was missing some main shelves and this reduced available spaceAll in all it was very good and we would come again

Glorious location with superb view. Loved the amenities and proximity to trail. Place is a bit tired looking with missing shelf in fridge, no included soaps and shampoos, and badly stained carpet. But still perfect for family vacation

The condo itself is very large, each bedroom is double sized. 2-3 steps down from front entry to living area was a challenge for 90 year old mom, I didnt think to ask about that. the furnishings and decor are somewhat dated but incredibly well maintained and clean, so not an issue for us. The view from unit and property are incredible. a short walk to a patio overlooking the ocean with firepits and a nice long lit pathway to stroll along the beach. 5/5 would book it again.
