Little individual houses in a beautiful setting with tons of amenities. The staff was great, the grounds well-kept and litter-free, and the buildings are very clean. Good pool/office hours, minutes from a beach where the tide runs wayyyyyyy out, and close to Parksville without being in the town. There is an on-site pub, although it is pricey.
Our cottage included 2 bedrooms, one with a double bed, one with a single and bunk beds (all linens included). Each room had it's own closet, dresser etc. Large, full bathroom with double closet. Living room with wood fireplace, flat screen TV, wifi, hideabed couch and love seat. Full kitchen with microwave, toaster, coffee maker, fullsized fridge and all the cookware you could need. Our unit had a fenced backyard, and all have patio sets. The best part is.. no hotel decor. Sturdy furniture, beautiful artwork and a great decorator's eye make it feel like your own fancy house - with housekeeping! Everything was amazingly clean - the unit, the office, the pool, the grounds - and the staff were all very sweet and informative. Looking forward to going again!

Three of us rented a two bedroom cabin for four days. It was modern, clean and had everything needed for a great vacation. A short walk to the beach and Rathtrevor Park was a bonus. Close to local dive sites made this an ideal base for day trip dive outings.

Been going to Beach Acres my whole life and have not once been disappointed. The forest cottages are warm and cozy and I recommend those if you are looking for a quiet, awesome place to stay. Beautiful BC forest right outside your door, and you can hear the birds chirping fromm anywhere. A short walk down to the beach is all you need to see breathtaking views and smell the salty ocean air. Many tide pools that are very fun to search through and lots of sandcastles that can be built! There's also an outdoor fire pit on the beach that can be used to roast s'mores and more! Back up at the office, the staff are wonderful! Always looking to help you out if you have a problem, and very welcoming when you first arrive. Very kind and polite! There is a small game room with bikes, paddle boards, badminton rackets, volleyballs, and more for renting for free! The playground is also great for the kids - they'll play on it for hours! A volleyball court, badminton court, and tennis courts are also available for use. Lovely, well maintained grounds. Finally, there's the indoor pool! It has a hot tub and sauna and is all around quite lovely. One thing I can promise is that you'll never be bored here! An amazing place to stay and spend time with family! 100% recommend!

My family and I enjoyed a meal at the Black Goose Pub. The atmosphere was rustic and warm, and the service was curtious and prompt. The food was of. Original English pubs, and that you ordered at the bar was both different and the change interesting.

The houses for rent are packed in and you can hear your neighbors but the views are remarkable and the accommodations are plenty for an overnight or a week long stay. This is a fantastic place to come and explore and there are so many opportunities for recreation here and near.

Service was very good at the restaurant, bartenders were extremely friendly, and there's a nice view of the water from even sitting inside. We didn't eat so I have no comments on the food, but it was fairly quiet on Sunday evening. Not the most lively atmosphere but that could be due to the day we went.

Family friendly place with a wonderful English-style pub at the heart of it. Satisfactory tennis courts, as well as basketball, horseshoes, and a great children's play area. Cabins are modern and include a full kitchen, fireplace and television. Everything quite clean and quiet. Most importantly, there is easy beach access to a gorgeous beach. Excellent COVID protocols.

This is a beautiful resort. The beach side cottages are a bit small for a family, so we prefer to rent a Ridgeline cottage instead. The view on the ridge is incredible and you have so much more space!

Traditional English pub style, you have to walk up to order food and beverages. Went with my grandma and dad for Mother s Day, she s in her 90 s and can t walk very well. The place wasn t super accessible for an elderly lady with a walker. Awesome fish and chips!

Best beachfront location of all the resorts on this strip. Each beachfront has its own firepit and Adirondack chairs! The only negative is that dishware could use an upgrade for sure. Indoor pool and hot tub all year round... great British pub (Black Goose Inn).... Accommodating staff :)

Staying in the partial ocean front view cabins at Beach Acres so far isn't as nice as the Forest cabins where we've stayed previously. Less private and farther from the barbeque pit. Beach Acres is still awesome though.

I've been going here with my family since i was a kid. Now I'm bringing my own son. Great family spot, beautiful views and right by the beach. Highly recommend going with an extended family and renting a few cabins!

The cottage we stayed in had great views and was nice and clean. There's a pub on site and a pool and hot tub (the hot tub isn't that great but still nice to have). Nice place and close to the beach and park trails.

Great location and place for families, couples, dog friendly. Cottages right on the beach and terrace above with fantastic views across the straight to the coast mountains. We like the cottages back in the woods.

Awesome location! We stayed at the cabin on the beach. It was perfect! The cabin is rustic but it had everything we needed. Very clean and the kitchen is well stocked. The only complain I had, the bed was loud and uncomfortable. It would be good for a couple of nights, but we stayed there for a week and my back wasn't very happy.
