Beautiful, quiet place. Fantastic view of the ocean. See seals bobbing their heads in the water and at night hear the whales breathing through their blow holes. What a treat! Place was a little smaller than I thought but it met our needs . I would recommend it. Sitting on balcony and taking in the ocean air and sights was wonderful. Thank you Amber!

Property is as described the ocean view was exactly what we were looking for. The place was clean and well decorated. The queen bed was comfortable in the bedroom but to be honest if you require a second bed the sofa bed was not. We were visiting friends in the area so the property was perfect for our needs I would definitely recommend this property to a couple.

A peaceful refuge just a few feet from the water. You can hear the waves lapping on the shore through the balcony door & bedroom window. Great views of the water and beach from balcony. Comfortable bed. We even enjoyed the 15-20 min drive through the countryside to Comox or Courtenay for supper where there are a number of decent restaurants. Amber is an excellent host!

Being right by the beach was wonderful. The water was occasionally conducive for paddleboarding (depending on wind conditions), and there was a good amount of marine life during low tides that our kids loved to observe. The condo, though compact, was well-supplied and organized. One thing to note is that the futon is probably more conducive for one person, as it leans to the middle. Amber was a very responsive host and we had an enjoyable stay.

Condo was spotless, well stocked with quality kitchenware and a keurig with coffee pods supplied. Everything needed for easy eating in. Direct view of the Georgia Strait from the living room, deck, and bedroom was a delight watching seals feed and ships passing. Very quiet rural location made for a peaceful and relaxing stay. A short 15 minute drive to town for restaurants, groceries, etc. An ideal final stay at the end of our 2 week road trip around Vancouver Island.

Everything was really nice once we were in the room. I would prefer to be able to communicate directly with the host rather than through VRBO as the check in process is more difficult through a third party.

Great little place! It seems recently updated and was very clean and comfortable. The proximity to the beach was fantastic and it was so quiet in the neighborhood that we could hear the waves and seals barking. Great views from the living room/balcony. FYI - No dishwasher. I had missed that detail in my review of the listing.

The view and quietness with the sound of waves and wildlife was amazing. We spent two days investigating the waters and beach with our grandchildren. We saw things we have never seen before even though we have grown up by the ocean. I have unbelievable pictures but they don't come close to what we actually saw. The sunrise breath taking. The kitchen was great, I made stuffing and the fixings for Easter turkey dinner. Thank you again for the fantastic stay! See you again soon :)
