Great room with a spectacular view. Staff were friendly and gave excellent service. My only complaint was the noise—the hallway doors to adjoining suites crashed closed and we could hear the occupants of 3rd floor suite above us pacing heavily at night.

The staff is tremendous. The front desk staff went absolutely above and beyond. I can't remember her name but my Folio says it was "swills". I hope she gets this message as she was amazing. The rooms are very modern, the hotel has a very retro beachy vibe, and the restaurant is among the best in Parksville. Try the Fisherman's Chowder. Unreal.
