Beautiful place! Our group had such a wonderful weekend getaway. The resort itself is great. Outside pool hot tub almost feels like you are at a tropical vacation with the water feature and palm tree. Indoor pool is great for kids. Stunning walk along the ocean. We did a sound therapy session at the spa which was honestly

The sunsets were amazing! Everything went very smoothly, the hosts were easy to talk with. Thoughtful amenities such as a stocked fridge filled with things like ketchup and spices. Laundry detergent and having machines in suite was helpful. We enjoyed the tub and access to things on the resort such as the pool and hot tub or bicycles and pickle ball were great. Would definitely recommend or stay again.

Great location near scenic stony beach. Pacific Shores complex is so attractive and well laid out. In our unit I appreciated a full second bedroom with bath -just found all the pillows too high for my comfort. Know that this unit is on the lower level and accessed via an elevator at the main level loading zone. However, the unit itself is a walk out with lots of windows and has a cute patio and garden in front. Overall Pacific Shores Getaway exceeded our expectations.

Fabulous location and resort.

The resort is very well maintained, with a fabulous outdoor rock hot-tub and awesome beach access. It was nice to be on the ground floor so that we could easily take our dogs outside. A lovely stay and we hope to return.

Perfect getaway Home

We wanted to stay near the ocean, there is a beautiful view from the walkout. We loved the gazebo with fire tables. The outdoor pool and outdoor hot tub were great . Paul was patient through the entire process. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking our own food. This was exactly what I was hoping for whenI booked it. Thank you for making it easy. We enjoyed ourselves .

Lovely vacation home

This property was just as advertised. We loved the location as it was fairly private right on the creek. The beach is just steps away from your door. The beach was amazing, the amenities are all right there on site. We made use of the indoor pool/hot tub, the outdoor hot tub and splash pool, and park for the children. We were able to rent kayaks/paddleboards with the owners pass which was so fun! The rooms are spacious, comfortable and overall were an inviting space for our young family. As an added bonus there was a high chair and childrens dinnerware/cutlery. Beds were comfortable and the unit had portable AC and 1 fan which was ideal as we had great weather and it could get warm in the rooms. We communicated with Paul easily and he answered all questions promptly. I would recommend this location for any young family. We loved our stay and hope to come back in the future.

A place to connect with family and nature

The 2 suit design providedThe plenty of room, and privacy for two couples, a teen and a dog. What we loved most is the accessibility to the ocean— no more than a minutes walk— as well as the decks and views. The bay is warm, shallow, and a wonderful to explore. We brought 2 paddle boards. Though we are only beginners, the tranquil waters could be navigated quite easily. Walks on the beach happened every day. We also enjoyed eating out on the deck at the Pacific Moon Bar and Grill on two occasions. The service was fantastic and the food very enjoyable, and filling. We appreciated that we could take our dog on the patio. The view from the patio deck, especially at sunset, completed the dining experience. This is a wonderful location and a great place to create memories with family.

It was a very nice resort with a great beach and beautiful walkways. The swimming pool area was well managed and it was enjoyed every day. I sure it is absolutely stunning. We had problems getting into the suite as we were not provided the key code and had to contact the host. I understood this was suppose to happen automatically. Vrbo was of no assistance and never picked up the phone line after a 45 minute wait. The host was able to provide those details. The only reason I never offered 5 stars as the upstairs tenant/guests/owners had children that ran the length of the suite almost non stop for five hours. We recognized it was New Years Eve but it was unpleasant to listen to and impossible to sleep. It slowed down after midnight but still active till 2:00

Not exactly as advertised

This property is advertised as having air conditioning, but it does not. When I checked in I asked about the discrepancy and if there was more than one fan available, and received a response about another question I asked but no response whatsoever about the lack of a/c and fans. The windows don’t open and there is no screen door to the front door, so it wasn’t possible to bring down the temperature much even overnight. Most of the time this wouldn’t be an issue, but we visited during a heat wave (temps over 90), so it was tough to sleep. The property is otherwise nice enough.

Has BUGS

I tried to communicate in a friendly way that their cleaners arent doing their job. I guess the cleaners are their friends so they must be regardless of the bugs left to be found in teh room the immense amount of dust under the head of the bed and the black mould under thw caulking of teh tub. I moved to a different room that was not privately owned that had hotel cleaning standards and also was beautifully clean and had NO BUGS... they gave me a partial refund after sending them pictures and videos proving what i said to be true ... but i only stayed 1 night and paid for 1 week .. to be sent back $400 out of $1200 and told i dont deserve the rest back is just a kick in the teeth if you ask me. Very rude. DEAL WITH YOUR BUG PROBLEM BEFORE YOU INFEST THE ENTIRE HOTEL!
