Seaside Getaway of Nanoose Bay

GurleenRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We had a wonderful stay at Scott’s place in Nanoose Bay. The house was spotless, spacious, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the essentials and more, and there were plenty of extra blankets and towels, which was a nice touch. The location is fantastic—peaceful, private, and the view is absolutely stunning. Waking up to that scenery every morning was a highlight of the trip. It’s clear that a lot of thought has gone into making the space welcoming and well-equipped. There are 2 powder rooms and 1 full bathroom. Highly recommend staying here if you're looking for a relaxing getaway with all the comforts of home and an unbeatable view!

Pet Friendly Oceanside w/ King, Patio & Amenities

MikeRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

My wife and I went to Tanya's condo for a week to celebrate our anniversary and relax. The condo and the surrounding area were great. Inside the condo there are quite a few little extras that make the stay extra comfortable - the large jetted tub, dual sinks in the bathroom, vinyl record player and cozy kitchen were all nice. One thing that sets this particular condo apart is that the owner has paid for the common amenities that the Pacific Shores Resort provides - this means that Tanya's guests can use the pickleball courts, the indoor pool, the outdoor pool and hot tub, and the table tennis table at no extra cost. This would have been especially handy if the weather was poor....but we lucked out with great weather for the whole week. We used the pickleball courts-great outdoor courts with nice nets and great surface-for a total of about 8 hours during our stay. There was always a court or two open. Paddleboarding and beach walks were also highlights of our trip. Great value!
