The Beach Club Resort & Spa

Great family friendly accommodation. Rooms are big and well maintained. Located right on the beach with direct access. The pool is on the small side. Not suited for lap swimming but just the right size to keep the kids entertained. Gym facilities are great. The hotel restaurant, Pacific Prime, can be a bit pricey, but the food is delicious and it's worth trying at least once. Very close to a large park with a huge playground, very popular with the kids.

Pros: very clean, beautiful grounds, good location close to everything and on the water, nice pool, free use of beach chairs/toys, etc, close to parks and food options. Cons: limited underground parking fills up quick, and you can tell they are currently having some staffing issues restaurant closed few days a week, etc. Overall we were very happy and impressed by this property. Quiet and well maintained, family friendly and lots of amenities. Kids could play on beach and head in for a pool and hot tub. Beach right out front is steps away and one of my favorites in the world warm water, shallow, etc.

Wonderful amazing stay. Please know that I am a super picky traveler. Due to noise sensitivity and chronic pain issues I rarely find a Hotel/Resort that meets all of my needs. I cannot say enough good things about the Beachside Resort. We stayed here in November for 9 nights in one of the Penthouse suites. Everything from the front desk staff to housekeeping to check in and check out was the best experience we have ever had. The front desk staff were nothing short of kind, helpful and amazing. They accommodated a fantastic rate and and extended stay. Housekeeping replenished everything we needed daily. These suites are like a home away from home and the ocean view is incomparable. I have travelled extensively over the years and stayed in many places and this one is definitely at the top of my list.

Came with hubby for short get-away. Excellent location and view. The suite was very spacious. Great pool and hot tub I enjoyed the spa- Nancy gave a great massage- back and feet. Extremely strong hands. Our only complaints: the bed is too firm and the shower pressure was underwhelming.

The hotel was a bit more run down than I expected, especially at this price point. The pillows were really flat and chunky. Both queen beds in our room sloped down towards the headboard. Even with a pillow, your head is angled downwards. The room smelled stale, which was a bit off-putting. It smelled like an old motel room that has been renovated, but the building looks relatively new, so that can't be. If you are a light sleeper, be forewarned about the heating - it's VERY loud when it turns on. The pool and hot tub were basic, but nice that it's indoors and heated. The location is great, and if you get an oceanfront room, the view is amazing! There are also lots of restaurants within walking distance, but only one on the premises. Based on reviews, I expected more out of this stay, so I was disappointed with our weekend here.

We loved our stay! We stayed in a spacious 1 bedroom on floor 2. Our room was clean and fully stocked with coffee, shampoo and laundry soap comes with a washer and dryer ect. The pool was warm and has a great view. We also tried the restaurant for breakfast and enjoyed our meals. The staff was super helpful and friendly. For the coffee drinkers- in room coffee was actually good, rare these days lol. We will be returning! Thanks for a great stay!

It is what it is. Large complex of a hotel which may be due an update. The rooms are clean and tidy just a bit tired looking. Again, nothing really wrong just felt aged. Facilities are good. A large underground carpark is welcome. The restaurant was good with a good choice of food and drink. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Perhaps the big selling point is the closeness to the beach boardwalks. Which was a welcome walk at both the end and start of the day!

Stayed for 4 nights in 2 bedroom waterfront suite. From the start the night clerk was extremely helpful getting us registered and making sure we had everything in our suite to start our stay there. Suite has everything you need to relax, look at the fantastic view and cook meals. They even found a bench for my elderly parent to use in the shower. Cleaning and restocking was done in a considerate and efficient manner. Many of the staff went out of their way to answer questions and help. The bedrooms were spacious and had very comfortable beds. The living area was expansive, with a full kitchen, dining table and large relaxing area with hidebed, two high back chairs and gas fireplace...not to mention the tv. Spent lots of time reading our books and staring out the large windows at the spectacular view. Outside the hotel is a fantastic boardwalk that follows along the whole beach. Would recommend this hotel to anyone wishing to get away for a deluxe self contained vacation. Great location and unbelievable vista!

I can't wait to go back to the Beach Club Resort in Parksville! The resort is located right off the beach and the rooms were clean and spacious. Staff were extra polite and each member, whether they were the front desk staff or cleaners or maintenance workers, ALL of them greeted me and smiled. That is impressive. 5 stars for sure!

Absolutely amazing. The sweetest, most kind staff, a gorgeous building, incredible rooms. My room had a huge soaker tub and a balcony big enough for a table and two chairs. It really feels like the lap of luxury here. Highly recommend.
