Week stay in Parksville
This is a great spot for a family or group to stay at. Conveniently located, house and yard are lovely, and more amenities than you even think you need! The little touches by the owners make you feel at home. We planning on staying here again!

Lovely home
A family reunion was organized in Parksville and eight of us stayed in this lovely place. Very centrally located, this home provided us all the requirements for every member to enjoy the stay, adults and young children. Thank you, Karina, for being so helpful. We look forward to return in the future.

Absolutely Wonderful
Our family was in Parksville for our daughter’s wedding. The house is in a great location, clean, beautiful backyard, quiet residential area. The house comes with so many little extras and the property managers are wonderful and answered all messages sent to them almost immediately. We will definitely be staying there again.

This home had EVERYTHING that could be would need! If you forgot something, it was likely you would find some in this house. It was a quick drive to the beach, and also not far from a wonderful viewpoint for sunrises.

Family Holiday
Comfortable, well functioning, and well equipped family home in safe and enjoyable neighbourhood . Backyard and back patio pick up afternoon sun and are very pleasant along with the attractive gardens. Bbq and several helpful appliances for family style eating in meals. Many family activities to take advantage of for short partial day trips to Coombs, Qualicum, and the lovely Parksville waterfront. Close to grocery store.

Great place
The house was as advertised with great beds, a fully stocked kitchen and comfprtable living space. the owner was extremely communicative and helpful. We were there during the 'freeze' and there were extra blankets out (which we didn't need as the house was warm) and they took the time to salt the driveway for us Would absolutely stay there again. Well deserving of a 5 star rating.

Terrific Home away from Home
We (two adults, one dog) had a fabulous stay at this property. It’s very comfortable, clean and welcoming with everything you need and a few extra touches that show the hosts really care about your stay. The yard is lovely - very secure and private with lots of room for our dog. There are no stairs anywhere which was a bonus for our dog who is older and arthritic. The yard also has a covered area with seating which is perfect for those days that are rainy but still warm enough to sit outside. Communication was great, Karina was very responsive and super friendly. The property is now one of our go-tos when visiting the area.

Parksville Paradise
The host made our life extremely easy and worry free, prior to and during our stay. The house was ideally located, off the main highway for a quiet/secluded oasis, yet close to all attraxtions, parks, etc. The house setup was great as the bedrooms were remote from the kitchen/living room so people could sleep uninterrupted while others were making food, playing games or watching TV. The only negative was the size of the 3rd bedroom which is quite small for an adult couple.

Parksville
It was an absolute delight to be welcomed into Karina and Ralna’s Parksville home. From booking to check-out our experience was seamless. We had everything that we needed for our stay and more, and the welcoming note and bowl of filtered water for our pup was very happily downed after a long car ride. (The chilled Sauvignon Blanc was also gratefully received😁). The home is impeccable, beds are comfortable and the kitchen well appointed for making gourmet dinners. The beautiful garden with blooming heather and rhodos was an unexpected treat for our morning tea and is fenced in to give us peace of mind for the pup. After years of staying in overpriced hotels in the area, we have decided this is our new home away from home. Thank you Karina and Ralna. Can’t wait to return!
