Waterfront holiday rentals in Parksville

Amazing view, great location, quiet, private and peaceful. Loved the firepit, made for lovely evenings. Will definitely return!

loved our stay! the beaches surrounding the area as well as the cozy view of the ocean from the balcony was all we needed to enjoy a relaxing getaway with our dog. thank you again for being so welcoming during the Easter long weekend. would highly recommend for anyone needing some quiet time away from the city.

This accommodation is beautifully decorated, clean, and comfortable, with a breathtaking view. Unexpected snowfall meant lots of shoveling, but this was done in a timely manner and our parking was upgraded besides. Thank you for a great stay!

We had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful beachside rental! From the moment we arrived, we were struck by how peaceful and welcoming the space felt. The home was spotless, tastefully decorated, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The view of the ocean was absolutely breathtaking — we spent every morning with a coffee on the deck, watching the waves roll in. Beach access was just steps away, making it easy to enjoy long walks, swims, and sunsets without ever needing to get in the car. The hosts were incredibly kind and responsive, providing helpful local tips and ensuring we felt at home. Every detail — from the cozy linens to the thoughtfully stocked kitchen — made it clear they truly care about their guests’ experience. This place is a gem. We left feeling rested, refreshed, and already dreaming about our return. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful escape by the sea.

We had a great stay at Beach Bliss! The view from the balcony is incredible. We appreciated the welcome note and treats. We will definitely be returning!

This was a comfortable, lovely space. It is right on the beach. It was easy to access and we let ourselves in and checked out. Clean, comfortable and a great vacation getaway.

We had a wonderful stay at Randy and Barb’s condo. The condo was very clean, tasteful and roomy. It was equipped with everything we needed!! The resort had many desirable amenities including exercise room, pool and a good restaurant and lounge. We communicated with Randy a few times and he was always responsive, prompt and helpful. It was very apparent that the quality of our stay was very important to Randy and Barb. We really appreciated that. We highly recommend this listing!!

This is a great place with an amazing view. The hot tub added a romantic touch. Heidi’s instructions made everything so easy. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Absolutely stunning location - saw loads of wildlife from the terrace, and an amazing view over the water. Property was also very well supplied with a super modern kitchen and ample bed and bath space. Will be back!

We enjoyed our stay. The airbnb was spacious and had everything we needed for our 2 week stay. We were in Parksville awaiting the birth of our grandson so it was a nice place to pass the time until baby's arrival. We had everything we needed to cook our own meals, the area has lots of nice walking trails, we enjoyed using the hot tub and the view from our unit was a nice surprise.

The view and private dock are worth the visit! The pics don’t do it justice. Lots of room for everyone with 4 queen beds and a basement room with 4 twin beds.

Very clean and tidy, exactly as described. Responsive and helpful host, beautiful view, and enjoyed the various birds and deer. Highly recommend!!

A really nice house with good taste of renovation. Wonderful view and private location. A good place for family vacation.

The place and location was amazing. Everything was perfect. The outside eating area with BBQ was better than expected/realized. The entire place looked newly renovated. The bay was great - just plan your water activities there according to the tide, because at low tide there is no water. Great location travelling to Madeira Park and Sechelt or beyond. We are looking forward to returning in the future.

We loved this amazing view home in Nanaimo. It is comfortable and extremely clean. Brian is a wonderful host, very welcoming and helpful. He has gone the extra mile to make your stay memorable by having so many extras available for your enjoyment like kayaks, crab traps and even extra shoes! The home has an incredible view and water access that offers a beautiful place to relax each day. We saw orcas, humpbacks, and otters from the deck! My 4 yr old grandson loved watching the ferries and float planes. Nanaimo was so fun. We are planning on coming back and definitely want to stay at this home again.

From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning beauty of Lindsay's beachfront property. The location is truly unbeatable—nestled right on the coast, with breathtaking ocean views that can be enjoyed both inside and out. Inside, the property is just as impressive. It's thoughtfully decorated, immaculately clean, and equipped with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. We will most definitely be back!

One of the most well stocked Airbnbs I’ve ever stayed at! We so appreciated having extra little things available like containers to pack some food with us for lunch. The notes about the significance of each of the art pieces was also a very special touch that made the space feel so meaningful. The ocean view is beautiful and we had lots of fun using the scope to birdwatch and check out the wildlife in the water!

Fabulous studio apt on the beach with fantastic views. Prop mgr Mischa was most accommodating and solicitous host Ive ever encountered. Excellent value. Will undoubtedly return.

Had a fantastic stay at Barry’s. Will return for sure

This was a perfect place to stay while we were visiting Vancouver Island. The location made it easy to explore other areas of the Island as a day trip. The condo itself is situated right across from the pool and hot tub as well as the beach trail which we were able to enjoy while we were staying. Overall, the condo is equipped with everything you need to have a pleasant stay and the host was easy to contact and responded quickly. I would recommend this airbnb!

wonderful place! Completely met our expectations.

Place was gorgeous, Iris was a sweet and responsive host. We will be back again 100%

Staying with Chelsea’s place was a pleasure. The location was perfect, the home was cozy and clean, and lots of activities to do. We are planning to go back next year. Highly recommended!

My stay at Jill’s place was perfect. As a host, Jill is friendly and very helpful. Her place was exactly as listed and was just a few short steps to the water. I loved my daily walks along the coast. I hope to stay at Jill’s condo again in the near future.
