THE Beach Club Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome view, great front desk staff. Clean suite. Wish there was a better coffee option for the suites tho! Would visit again!"

New Construction Coach House, 10 Minute Walk to Downtown and Ferry Spotless

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely everything you need in this spotlessly kept accommodation. Very quiet and secure. One of the best equipped VRBO’s we have ever stayed in and we have stayed in plenty. Great location to many of Nanaimo’s attractions, restaurants, shopping, etc. Best of all only a couple streets over from our family.Will definitely stay again and highly recommend."

This is the life! 2 bedroom oceanfront condo close to everything.

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the location which was close to one of the ferries and downtown Nanaimo. The unit was clean but we did notice areas that were missed. Beware, the portable air-conditioners were noisy. We loved sitting on the deck at night."
