About this property
The Nook at Nanoose Bay - Oceanview - Studio
This is a private entrance, studio apartment on the top floor of an oceanfront condominium with private bathroom and covered deck. Enjoy the quiet charm of the Pacific Shores Resort, situated on beautiful Craig Bay with sheltered tidal waters & amazing views to the Salish Sea. We are a little off the beaten path and yet only minutes to downtown Parksville. Our suite at Pacific Shores Resort has many great amenities and is also a great base for experiencing all the area has to offer.
With a king size bed, and a love seat that opens up to a single twin size mattress, this studio unit can easily accommodate 3 people. The suite has a small fridge, microwave, Keurig coffee machine, basic kitchen items and glassware (no sink). There is an electric fireplace and a balcony with a view of the estuary and bay. There is free covered guest parking close by the building.
This is a privately owned condo located in the Pacific Shores Resort. You are steps away and have access to all the Resort's amenities, including the indoor pool (Closed on Mondays), hot tub, sauna, BBQ areas, pickle-ball courts, children's play area, work-out room, and games room. In the summer, the Resort's amenities also include kayaks, paddle boards and lawn games. Seasonal amenities are the responsibility of Pacific Shores Resort & Spa and are available on a first come first serve basis.
This is a nature resort, with waterfalls, lovely gardens, trails and viewing decks. Our favourite deck, which we call the "Sunset Deck", has 2 propane fire pits and we love to sip our wine and watch the tide and the sunsets.
We are conveniently located mid Island ; it is a 2.5 hr drive to Tofino & 2 hrs to Victoria. Ski Mount Washington-only 1 hr drive.

This property and surrounding area was beyond our expectations. Pleasant walks and views, it was quiet and not a far drive for anything needed from town or for the airport
Easy check in. Perfect location. Beautiful resort with lots of amenities. Easy and quick drive to Parksville and Qualicum, but truly a lovely place to stay and relax after our adventures. It was a great stay.
Place was perfect for our stay on the island! Beds were super comfortable, suite was clean and stocked with all the essentials. Property includes access to pool and hot tub! Restaurant on site was also a plus and parking was very convenient!

Really nice place to stay and can’t beat the price! The location is wonderful, right down on the water and easy access to the beach. Room was modern and clean and had lots of nice touches.
The only downside is the sound proofing between suites is not great. It was an issue one of the two nights we stayed.
If you are local and want a nice get away highly recommend or if you are visiting Vancouver island this would work as a wonderful base for day trips.
We had a comfortable and clean room. The property is lovely and we enjoyed walking on the paths and beach. Outdoor jacuzzi tub was great after a big hike. We enjoyed the onsite restaurant - great food - good entertainment one night. It would have been nice to have bathrobes to walk to the pool/hot tub.
Had a good short stayBut there was many sort of small issues that I think would be addressed simply.

The Nook studio condo makes a great get-away vacation stay. From the 4th floor there is a serene view of the estuary and Craig Bay. It's both comfortable and beautiful, and featured great amenities: a working fireplace, big flat TV, sofa, comfy king size bed, a kitchenette, a balcony, a fabulous deep jacuzzi tub, good lighting, and a convenient elevator near the parking garage. The building was quiet and the resort has lots of amenities and a beautiful setting to explore.
A pleasant surprise! Fully equipped modern studio and fully equipped grounds with BBQs courts hiking trails, sunset viewing and swimming beach! Would definitely return!
