Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Parksville

The place far exceeded our expectations. It was equipped with EVERYTHING we would have needed to not go anywhere the whole time. The kitchen was stocked with all the cooking necessities, the kind beds in every room with vaulted ceilings made us feel like the boujee girls we want to be. The views were breathtaking and being able to have all of our meals outdoors with heat and covering made it so memorable. The house came with cars and outdoor games too to use on the nice open yard. It really felt like the place was ours. The icing on the cake was the chairs, wood and starters to make our own little beach fire right below the house and roast marshmallows while watching the sunset. Couldn’t recommend this stay enough! Definitely 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!

Haining’s beautiful home is surrounded by nature, cute little towns, and the ocean just minutes away. Although we only stayed for one night, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was clean, welcoming, and even had some board games which we enjoyed. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Lovely home that feels relaxing and cozy! Courtney was very accommodating and easy to communicate with.

Great stay as always!!

Great place and great host. Thanks again Jessica!

I recently stayed at Ashley's place, and it was an exceptional experience! The property was exactly as described (and even better in person). It was spotless, cozy, and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The attention to detail in the décor and amenities made it feel like a home away from home. The location was perfect, especially the view was amazing. I loved the closed huge backyard too because of my dog. Ashley was incredibly welcoming and providing clear communications. I would highly recommend this place to everyone. We definitely gonna stay at this place again. This time Summer.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time here! Very family friendly - we used the pack'n'play and highchair, as well as the beach toys provided! There were many "kids" cups and plates which made meal time a breeze. The fully enclosed deck was also nice for the kids to play on. There were a couple things that would be nice for a handyman to come work on (tightening up toilet seats/towel rods, etc.) but overall we really enjoyed our stay!

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.

Perfect location and great stay. The suite was clean, and provided with everything needed! Host was warm and friendly and always accommodating. Would 100% stay again.

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.

Very clean and beautiful place with amazing views. I felt comfortable right away in her home. The beach and walkway were very close to enjoy an evening stroll.

We stayed here for a week, and wished it could have been longer. The location and the view from the unit is absolutely beautiful; only a short drive into Parksville and Qualicum, as well as Nanaimo, and yet when you are staying here, you feel like you could be miles from anywhere. Lovely walking trails around, amazing beach and great facilities made this the perfect spot for us to base ourselves and explore the area. The unit itself is impeccable and had all the amenities one could need, and lots of thoughtful little details that made this a stay we will remember. We will definitely be back, and will be recommending this place to family and friends.

Two words gorgeous views!!! Looked forward to having my cup of coffee on Kelley & Kent’s patio every morning. A very peaceful location tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Ganges, but still less than five minute trip into town. Both Kelley & Kent were very welcoming and accommodating to our early check in. Their air bnb had all the amenities you could need to make you feel right at home. Beds were super comfy! I would HIGHLY recommend booking this accommodation, you won’t be disappointed! :) Enjoy!

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!!

Friendly and attentive hosts, freshly baked goods and breakfast provided which is a lovely touch. Thank you very much.

This is an absolutely stunning house with a gorgeous view and perfect location for visiting Salt Spring Island. We were 7 adults and 4 children, here for a weekend and it is well equipped for families. (High chair, cribs, etc.) We were able to walk into town from the house enjoying the Saturday market but the house location is private and pristine. There is a very cottage feeling to the place yet it is also large and elegant as well. A nice mix of experiences. The kitchen is well equipped with anything you could possibly want and the house in general is well supplied with books, games, and activities. It is large enough that you can wander off for some peaceful time on your own while at the same time, the living room and dining room could easily accommodate our numbers as well. We did find some of the furniture, while charming, a bit uncomfortable to sit in and the very firm mattress on the king bed was a bit too much for our aging backs, but that's a plus for some.

The house is in a quiet area with a clear view of the sea. I feel lucky to have stayed here.

A sharp modern glass tree house with a butterfly roof surrounded by trees - that makes for a comfortable stay & peaceful positive energy. We very much enjoyed the home and setting. Walls of glass floor to ceiling make it bright & a sense of light energy too. The landscaping is well done so that is nice on the eyes also. On our trip there happened to councide with very early morning & all day heavy machinery construction right next door, even on the Easter holiday. However that does not change my 5 star review. The place itself was excellent. The construction will be temporary + not always heavy machinery. And soon it will end. I just mention this so renters can get more certainty on what will be happening during the days they book. I highly recommend this rental it's a perfect place for 2 people and has a 2nd bed open to the main area that extra family could sleep in. We used that bed in the main room as a cozy place to read. Great master BR giant windows out to trees.

Beautiful home just as described! Thoroughly enjoyed the stay.

We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The place was spacious and comfortable, with plenty of room for our group. The beds and mattresses were incredibly comfortable, which made for a restful stay. Overall, everything was great. There are just a couple of suggestions for improvement: the dishes weren’t as clean as expected, as the dishwasher doesn’t seem to work properly. It would also be great to add a fire pit with enough seating for everyone and a light near the hot tub to make it more usable at night.

This cottage is perfect for exploring the Parksville area! It worked out great for our family of 4 and the pool was an awesome amenity. Super cozy furniture and blankets, nice fireplace, well equipped kitchen. Definitely recommend staying here!

We had high hopes and they were far exceeded when we saw the property. Literally jaw dropping when we opened the door and saw the elegance and beauty of the house behind it. From the wild deer in the green beyond the fence to the pool and garden to the design and presentation of the house from basement level to top level it was nothing short of breathtaking. The views are incredible and there wasn’t a thing lacking in the house that we needed. Meghan was always responsive if we needed her and personable. The street was private and neighbours friendly also. Really could not rate our stay highly enough. You certainly get what you pay for and much much more.

The property is better than what is described, it truly had a jaw-dropping view and wonderful tall ceilings that made the space feel even more open. Pros: Beautiful view, gorgeous and clean home, peaceful location Cons: Ad says you have the whole villa, but there is a tenant in the basement (the owner) that we didn't know about until we arrived. I had specifically asked if we would be the only people in the villa and was told yes. We were startled upon arrival to see him of course. Although the upstairs deck is private, there was no dining furniture on that level of the house and with the person living on the lower level, we did not feel comfortable helping ourselves to any dining furniture that may have been down there. There was no private backyard as mentioned either; the owner was using it. We stayed for 7 nights so were disappointed to not have dining furniture outside, accessible to us, like it said in the ad, as we cooked several meals. Overall a wonderful, relaxing spot.
