We recently stayed at Ocean Trails over the Easter long weekend. It was our 3rd time staying at this resort & absolutely loved it there! We stayed for a total of 4 nights in a 2 bedroom unit for the 3 of us. The furnishings are modern and nice, the decor is also nice but more importantly, the unit was... More

Well, let's put it this way. We were attracted to the "resort" for it's web advertised $99/night pricing and stayed 2 nights end of March, mid season of the year. First impression was nice, 2br suite with sky light in the kitchen, bright and roomy. We made use of the kitchen and stay in to make our dinner and found... More

We loved our stay at Ocean Trails Resort in Parksville BC. Not only was the room great as it had a kitchenette. It was near many attractions. That's why we stay at Ocean Trails. The playground, tennis/basketball courts and beach are great for the kids. They spent lots of their time there. It's also close to the mini golf course... More

We recently stayed at Ocean Trails for a hockey tournament weekend. This is the second time staying at Ocean Trails. Both times the rooms were clean, quiet and very pleasantly decorated. We had a 2 bedroom suite and enjoyed having the room to spread out. It is much nicer than staying in a cramped hotel room with hockey gear for... More

We recently spent a week at Ocean Trails and thought it was excellent quality and value. We are planning to move to the Island and used Ocean Trails as our base camp to explore the area from Nanaimo to Comox. The central location made it an excellent jumping off point. Furnishing were great and made it easy to want to... More

If you look at the website, you are given the impression that the 'resort' is on the beach, or has beach views. Sadly, it does not. To get to the beach you have to walk through the Ocean Trails complex, then out a gate, then walk past the Madrona resort, then down a long and twisting steep ramp, then walk... More

Thank you for posting your thoughts from your summer stay with us. We are very lucky to be situated on 7 beautiful acres in close proximity to popular Rathtrevor Beach, but would like to clear up any confusion by mentioning that we are located adjacent to the beach and our units do not have ocean views. It's unfortunate that you... More

This is a well maintained and family oriented resort. You do have to trek down to the beach and there are no ocean views but they have a great kids pool and lots of space to ride around on bikes. Good value for money. Our suite was immaculate. More

This has been one of the most relaxed vacations that I have ever had. It is great for anyone. I had a cabin near the tennis court and I would recommend such a location to anyone (quiet, easy access, near the office, and exquisite interior). The beach is very close and a perfect place for relaxing walks. There's also a... More

Was told about this place by a work friend and so glad we came. The staff were are super friendly and helpful, the condo's have everything we needed for a week, very well stocked and really clean. The beach is close by and the pool and playground kept the kids busy all week. We have booked for next year already!... More

We arrived at the lovely grounds of the Ocean Trails, just a tad early to check in and were offered use of the pool and changing facilities, and access to the beach. They gave us a ring as soon as our room was ready. The facility is kept well-cleaned, freshly painted etc. We were pleased that it looked just as... More

Thank you for taking the time to post a review after your family getaway here at Ocean Trails Resort. Our staff are always pleased to hear such positive comments. All of our unit's interiors are already non-smoking, but we are also investigating the possibility of having an outside smokers' area away from the units and activities areas. Our resort is... More
