“Cute motel, value for money”

Reviewed 29 March 2013 via mobile

I never really expect too much from motels and we chose this place as it was the best value for money and included breakfast. And even though yes, it had floral bedspreads (of course!), I was impressed with the room. Flat screen Tv, and large clean bathroom with full-sized tub. Standard microwave, fridge and coffee maker with complimentary coffee and... More

“Quick stay”

Reviewed 11 March 2013

Nice room at the back of the building which did make it quiet , but the bed was very uncomfortable and it only had a shower in the bathroom. It is alright for an over night stay. The lady at the front desk was friendly and helpful.

Nothing was a bother to our wonderful mom-son house keeping team. Anything we needed they were on it. The added bonus... More

“Loved it”

Reviewed 22 September 2012

We have stayed at the Paradise Seashell motel many times over the years. Always had a clean room, never a problem to get extra amenities and the location is perfect. They offer free mini golf (located right next door to the motel) which is always a good time! The staff is great, and we will definitely stay again! Highly recommend... More

“Average but the people make the difference...”

Reviewed 29 May 2012

Unless you're staying in one of the resort hotels (Tigh N'Mara and the Beach Club are two of the nicest), there are not a lot of great reasonably priced motel options in Parksville. The Paradise Seashell is a small, two story walk-up hotel, almost as if time stood still in the 1960s. Very clean, not at all fancy, not at... More
