Just okay
Very cramped in the room. Fridge was full of ice and needed to be defrosted badly. No coffee and office not open in the morning to get coffee even though there is a coffee maker in the room. No coffee shops open in the area until 8-9 am. No information at all about the area. No A/C and no screens on the windows. Comfy bed but not quiet. Campers very loud right behind our room. Ocean view and cheap for the area. Will not stay again.

The accommodations were comfortable and located across from the ocean. The suite would benefit from basic items like bags soap for hand washing (there were a pile of shampoo packets that we washed our hands with), Kleenex and salt and pepper in the kitchen would have been thoughtful and appreciated items.

We spent the days a Hornby island and wanted something closeby to commute…. This is a very quaint little Inn/ cottages with RV grounds behind. Our corner #4 suite was clean, modern and cozy. The grounds are pretty full of flower beds and greenery and since the inn sits in front of the beach you get amazing sunsets and just cross the street to the beach for a walk. Not sandy. You also see rabbits roaming around the property super cute. I loved it. I gave the staff an average because I did not interact with them.

There is NO POOL and NO RESTAURANT. The Expedia ad says there is a Pool and restaurant and even shows pictures of it. We went there with our kids specifically for the pool, and they were devastated to find out upon arrival that there was no pool at all. I complained to Expedia and they did nothing.

It was beautifully situated right on Qualicum Bay. Property was clean but is a bit 'unkempt' - could use some upgrades to make it look better. I would recommend and stay again.

Good at first glance only... wouldn't stay again
While at first we were quite impressed with the oceanside view, location, air-conditioning and the unit was nicely renovated... it was a comedy of errors otherwise! We're a family of four - there was one spoon, one knife, and three forks only in the cutlery drawer. The cook top didn't work at all (so couldn't even boil the kettle), and the beds were pretty miserable. Though it was pretty clean overall, there was dog hair on the sofa and a dog toy under the bed - with allergies we would not have booked this. Also the booking confirmation said to check in at 4pm (but apparently we could have arrived from 2pm)... so the kids were gutted to miss out on the . waterslide as its open only 1 to 4pm .

Disgusting. Broken. Trash. DONT BOOK.
Booked for my family to stay the night while on Vancouver Island. Room was dirty, no air conditioning or even black out blinds. Only a disgusting filthy table fan was provided to cool the room during this heat wave. We decided that we would make the best of it since we have two small kids and there was a pool and playground. Went to the playground, was literally made of garbage. Broken down. Missing pieces, overgrown. Fine, we will try the pool. Wait, NOPE, it’s a slough that has been under construction for YEARS apparently. We were there for 2 hours and checked out. Found a nice spot in Qualicum Beach that was way better. None of the broken crap amenities were listed on their website. Stay far away. Go literally anywhere else.
