Beautiful accommodations

There are so many positives about the Polished Pebble. Very clean, organized, comfortable and easy communication with Aileen. Beach access is across the road and there are deer and cute bunnies in the area. It’s a wonderful place to stay and we will hopefully be back.

Wonderful Clean Place in Parksville

We had a wonderful say. It was our first VRBO experience and we will do it again. This place was so clean and so well appointed and the location was in perfect proximity to the beach. I liked it so much more than hotel. The host Aileen was so nice and made us feel right at home.

Parksville stay

Such a top notch place to stay! The host, Aileen, is not only a lovely person but she has really put so much thought into the place. From the decorations, to the quality household items to make your stay more comfortable. You will not find a more thoughtful host!! There is plenty of privacy and it really does feel like a home away from home! 10/10! Thank you!

Beautiful suite near ocean

The place was very clean and beautiful. Everything we needed was there, including beach toys, beach chairs, wagon to take to beach, kids toys and games and more! There was access to a rocky beach just across the street and it was also close to sandy Parksville beach (5 min drive) and Rathtrevor beach (5 min drive). You could also walk to Rathtrevor through the forested area by the ocean too, which was beautiful. We would definitely recommend this place!

Perfect Location & Wonderful Experience

I absolutely love Parksville and this was the perfect place to enjoy it from. It's tucked away right at the edge of the town so it's convenient but it feels like you're a million miles away from everything distracting. We could hear and see the ocean and even smell the fresh salt air! Everything was clean, easy to understand and perfectly laid out. We had complete privacy yet we knew that our hosts were close by if needed. I'd stay again without hesitation.

Positive Plus Experience at the Polished Pebble

We loved staying at the Polished Pebble—quiet residential neighborhood; Clean with a capital C; Helpful, detailed instructions about appliances, recycling, and checkout procedures. Aileen, the host, was very helpful with some scheduling issues we had. The 2bedroom unit is gorgeous—beautifully decorated, with great attention to thoughtful details— a real delight to stay here with private beach access. Don’t miss the nearby Animal Recovery Sanctuary—it’s incredible and the Country Store with goats living on the roof! Highly recommend this one!
