Holiday rentals with a patio in Port Alberni

loved our stay! the beaches surrounding the area as well as the cozy view of the ocean from the balcony was all we needed to enjoy a relaxing getaway with our dog. thank you again for being so welcoming during the Easter long weekend. would highly recommend for anyone needing some quiet time away from the city.

We really enjoyed our stay here and plan on making it a regular stop when visiting family. Karen was very responsive and thoughtful in ensuring we had everything we needed and offered extra help. The unit was spacious and well appointed. We wanted for nothing and the bed provided one of the best sleeps we had had in awhile. Despite the location over the carwash it never caused a concern or noise issue and the big windows provided a view of the trees and sea. We even got to enjoy morning coffee on the deck one day. Thank you Karen for this great unit.

This is a great place to stay in Cumberland. It is a 5 minute walk to the restaurants and we could bike to the mountain bike trails in minutes. Kelly was a great host and was very helpful with our bike storage which made our stay easy. The apartment was new and had everything you would need and more. We liked that this apartment had A/C and a washer and dryer. Would definitely stay here again. .

We had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful beachside rental! From the moment we arrived, we were struck by how peaceful and welcoming the space felt. The home was spotless, tastefully decorated, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The view of the ocean was absolutely breathtaking — we spent every morning with a coffee on the deck, watching the waves roll in. Beach access was just steps away, making it easy to enjoy long walks, swims, and sunsets without ever needing to get in the car. The hosts were incredibly kind and responsive, providing helpful local tips and ensuring we felt at home. Every detail — from the cozy linens to the thoughtfully stocked kitchen — made it clear they truly care about their guests’ experience. This place is a gem. We left feeling rested, refreshed, and already dreaming about our return. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful escape by the sea.

Cornelia's place is amazing. It feels brand new and is very comfortable for a couple. The views across Georgia Strait defy description. No matter the weather, this place would be relaxing and comfortable year round. Can't recommend it highly enough.

Great place to stay, beautiful location, perfect for walking your fur baby, safe neighbour hood, relaxing balcony with a great view, simply wonderful experience!

We didn’t interact with Brian and Shauna but they reached out initially to let us know they were available, we just didn’t end up needing anything but it was nice of them to be in touch. The space is perfect for 2, spotlessly clean and well provisioned with all the basics. Very comfy bed, cozy deck with a beautiful view out over the water. Quiet neighborhood, the unit feels very private, and access to beaches, restaurants, hiking trails and more was super convenient. We had a great stay, no complaints at all.

Highly recommended! Everything available. Very clean. Amazing view

I had a wonderful stay at Anastasiia's place. The home was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. Anastasiia was a thoughtful and responsive host, making sure everything went smoothly throughout my stay. The location was convenient and quiet—perfect for relaxing after a day out. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Ingrid’s home is incredible and was an amazing place to stay for our wedding weekend. The home is beautiful and Ingrid left thoughtful touches around for us. Communication was excellent and we had everything we needed. Exceptional host and exceptional property.

We had a great time at Scott's place. It was well equipped, comfortable and felt very homely and welcoming. Scott was very friendly and responded immediately to any queries. He gave us helpful tips for local walks and wildlife viewing. We particularly loved watching hummingbirds just outside the lounge windows. We would recommend Karmix Cottage to anyone wanting a get away from it all break, but within easy reach of beaches, waterfalls and forests.

The location of this place couldn't be better for exploring the Island and especially for mountain biking (hosts were very accommodating with letting us store/charge our ebikes in their garage during our visit). Very easy access to everything North and South of Nanaimo as well as the city itself. The apartment is very peaceful with your own private garden/sitting area. While Nash and Louise are delightful hosts the real star of this property is Ollie, the most well behaved dog you will ever meet. Ollie greeted us upon our arrival and checked in most mornings to make sure we were well taken care of. Be sure to get Nash and Louise's restaurant recommendations.

It was clean and comfortable as advertised. Thank you

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in such a beautiful space. The place is spotless and very well stocked. It is clear that Elidah and Ed have put a lot of love and care into their home. Our kids loved all of the nature and beach treasures and the wonderful selection of toys and books! Highly recommend. Thanks again!

A very comfortable homely place - “secret walk” down to the nearby beach involving a bit of scrambling which our little grandsons loved - a real getaway- house had everything we needed plus fire pit and bbq - a place you’ll want to return to and we hope we will

I recently stayed at Ashley's place, and it was an exceptional experience! The property was exactly as described (and even better in person). It was spotless, cozy, and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The attention to detail in the décor and amenities made it feel like a home away from home. The location was perfect, especially the view was amazing. I loved the closed huge backyard too because of my dog. Ashley was incredibly welcoming and providing clear communications. I would highly recommend this place to everyone. We definitely gonna stay at this place again. This time Summer.

Fabulous studio apt on the beach with fantastic views. Prop mgr Mischa was most accommodating and solicitous host Ive ever encountered. Excellent value. Will undoubtedly return.

Lovely view from the first floor!

We can’t rave enough about our stay. From the moment we walked in and the attention to detail. We were blown away by the thoughtfulness of Barb and Randy to our personalized surprise. They are top notch hosts! The pictures do not do this place justice. It is a beautiful gem and we will be back. Love the unit, the scenery, the resort and the area.

Wendy’s place was perfect. Spotlessly clean. Extremely comfortable for four adults. The beds are very comfortable - not too hard, not too soft! Beautiful rooftop patio. Very close to the harbour, restaurants and coffee shops. Very highly recommend this place!!

**5-Star Review for an Unforgettable Airbnb Stay in Parksville** Our recent stay at casa sunrise in Parksville was nothing short of spectacular! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the charm and comfort of this beautifully designed home. The space itself was immaculate, spacious, and thoughtfully appointed with everything we needed. The open-concept living area was bright and airy. The kitchen was fully equipped. The outdoor area was a highlight—sipping morning coffee on the deck was pure bliss.

Beautiful apartment with a really nice unobstructed sea view. Everything just like in the photos, clean and lots of natural light. I really enjoyed the beautiful bathroom…very nicely done. The bed is huge and very comfy as well. The view from the rooms and balconies is exceptional and really lovely. The whole property is really nice and well maintained. Especially enjoyed the bbq areas and fireplaces in the common areas. Communication was very good and check in instructions easy and clear. Overall we had a lovely stay and I would recommend to anyone looking to enjoy the sea and nature of Vancouver Island. You would definitely need a car there, as there is not so much to do in a walking distance. Closes town is approx. 5 - 10 min. Drive. Ferry in Nanaimo about 20-30 minutes. Very convenient!

My stay at Jill’s place was perfect. As a host, Jill is friendly and very helpful. Her place was exactly as listed and was just a few short steps to the water. I loved my daily walks along the coast. I hope to stay at Jill’s condo again in the near future.

Isaac was so thoughtful, when I inquired about a pack n play he said he’d buy one for us! He’s invested in making this place great for families and it shows! The setting is wonderful, so close to the amazing beach and nestled in a beautiful woodsy spot. The place was great - very clean and had everything we could need. The beach toys and gear was the cherry on top!
