Beachfront vacation rentals in Nanoose Bay

This carriage home was the perfect space for 2 people. Incredibly clean, private and quiet with a beautiful view of the water. Great location, 5 minute walk down the hill to Lower Gibsons. Christi was easy to communicate with and very accommodating. Would definitely stay here again!

This place has gorgeous views of the water. They finishing were also really nice and well thought out. Beautiful terrorist. The hot tub overlooking the ocean. Generally really beautiful.

This place is really special and exactly as it looks in the photos (but better in person!) We enjoyed having breakfast on the terrace in the mornings, and listening to the local birds in the trees that surround the cabin. The view from the terrace is really magnificent!! We also indulged in the wood fired hot tub to make the most out of the beautiful forest surroundings. This stay was really one to remember, and I'm already dreaming about coming back another time. The roadside parking space had plenty of room for one car, two vehicles would be a tight squeeze.

Our family stayed for four nights and we had a wonderful time. The studio suite was larger than what we expected and it has a nice patio area. The kids loved the bunk bed. There was a good size desk to get some work done. We have stayed at Pacific Shores for many times over the years and it has all the amenities onsite while being very close to Parksville.

We had such a wonderful stay at Mason's. It was a perfect spot for out ladies weekend. It's a beautiful property and we enjoyed many delicious meals and laughs on the deck. The space was spotless! We are talking about booking it again next year.

We stayed here with our two young kids. We had an excellent time! It was great being on the ground floor and having access to the beautiful grassy area with a little fairy garden. The unit had everything we needed and the laundry was a great asset. We had a blast looking at all the creatures along the creek and in the tidal area! We loved the pool and hot tub! They were in excellent condition and just a short walk from the unit. We were visiting friends in the area and would definitely be back!

My husband and I stayed here for a relaxing anniversary weekend with our dog and we had such a great time. The suite was clean, well laid out, and comfortable. Dean and Amanda were lovely hosts and we felt right at home. Not to mention the beautiful view from the patio. The easy access to the beach allowed us to walk down with our dog for a peaceful evening stroll. Overall, we had a fantastic time staying here and would definitely recommend it to our friends and family hoping to visit Gibsons. Thanks Amanda and Dean!

Tania’s cabin felt like going home, but with the added bonus of being located on a beautiful, private section of lake overlooking provincial park land. We couldn’t have asked for a better location to enjoy the lake and nearby trail systems. Directly behind the cabin is a steep, paved pathway down to the dock and beach - both were hands down the highlight of our stay - spacious and set up for relaxing, while also acting as a launch point for paddle boards and kayaks. The cabin was also incredibly comfortable for our dogs - Tania added thoughtful touches just for them including comfy beds, treats, and towels. I especially appreciated the large, working grill on the back deck overlooking the water. This made meal prep easy and an absolute joy. We will be back!

Our stay at Shannon's condo was fantastic. Views of the ocean and creek from the condo were amazing - full of wildlife and beauty, and the binoculars in the condo helped us view them a little more close up. Shannon was quick to respond when I couldn't figure out how to turn on the fireplace. The kitchen is small, but very well equipped, and we made most of our meals in the condo. The bed was very comfortable! There was one comfy chair in the living room, but the one small drawback in the condo was that seating in the living room wasn't super comfy. The amenities at the resort next door were fantastic. A very good value, for an overall wonderful stay, in an awe-inspiring location. I would 100% recommend Shannon's condo.

We had a really great time at this very comfortable townhouse! Derek was a very responsive host and was incredibly accommodating of us traveling with a baby. Would definitely stay here again!

Our stay was amazing!! Christina had snacks placed out for us which we loved, the heated floor in the bathroom was awesome, temperature in the room was great, we really enjoyed the hot tub on sight and the restaurant within walking distance. We went for a walk on the nicely maintained walking trail beside the ocean, and then sat by the propane fireplace and watched the sun set. Lots of available covered parking, wish we stayed longer to try out the pool and other amenities. We loved our stay and would give 6 stars if possible, would stay again

Our family had a wonderful stay at Lilian’s place! It’s homey, comfortable and clean and the setting is just gorgeous. We enjoyed the beach access and amazing view and even made use of the fire pit area. It felt like a great location in relation to all of the hikes/exploring we did. We would definitely stay here again - highly recommend!

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.

This place is a great find! Absolutely stunning view from the living room and bedroom of peaceful ocean rolling in and out, amazing sunset and overall the complex has lots to do. Restaurant on site is a great bonus! Hosts very responsive and flexible, we will definitely book here again! 2 points to be aware of: 1) There is a Personal Intake form that must be completed above and beyond Airbnb's info (click to show more 2x in the House Rules section), we were taken by surprise by this. 2) There is a suite attached to this rental unit that is also rented out. When occupied it can greatly affect the serenity of the environment as you can hear every word spoken. This was unexpected. Again, a couple unexpected notes but we would definitely book here again!

Place was gorgeous, Iris was a sweet and responsive host. We will be back again 100%

John’s place was fantastic. Easy check-in and quick to answer any questions. My wife and I really appreciated the size of the condo and all the amenities. The fireplaces, jetted tub, comfortable king bed, well equipped kitchen and beautiful patio. We took advantage of the on-site amenities including the gym, pool, outdoor hot tub, trails and restaurant. Our stay was awesome and John made us feel right at home. Highly recommend this gem of a condo in beautiful Nanoose Bay.

Second time here and absolutely love it. From the moment you walk in you feel you’re on holiday. Beautiful view from all around the kitchen and living room or can enjoy the deck with the barbecue. Clean and beautifully decorated and close to everything in Gibsons area

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.

This was a perfect place to stay while we were visiting Vancouver Island. The location made it easy to explore other areas of the Island as a day trip. The condo itself is situated right across from the pool and hot tub as well as the beach trail which we were able to enjoy while we were staying. Overall, the condo is equipped with everything you need to have a pleasant stay and the host was easy to contact and responded quickly. I would recommend this airbnb!

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.

Beautiful location!! Talk about waterfront, you are literally on top of the water 😊 We saw many seals and otters, geese and even Eagles on the beach eating their fish. The sound of the waves and the ocean lapping on the rocks… and the refreshing scent of the beautiful ocean air. The caretakers, Tani and her Husband were very nice and accommodating. Shiney Happy People! Thank you so much, we really enjoyed celebrating our 15 Year Anniversary at your piece of Heaven. The cabin is also very well equipped and nicely decorated!

We had a lovely stay at the cottage! It has a peaceful, comfy patio and the hot tub was great. There was a lovely pier to walk out on across the street, and several nice restaurants a short drive away. We would definitely stay again.

We had such a great stay, what a beautiful place! The surrounding area was very scenic and peaceful with lots to do nearby. Melissa is a wonderful host! She was quick to respond, very friendly, super helpful & accommodating! I would highly recommend her air bnb, it was such a lovely place to stay and I wouldn’t definitely go back! We couldn’t have asked for a better weekend or a better host. 🤩

Lovely place to stay in an idyllic location. The Guest House is very comfortable with great beds and a good outdoor space for eating. We loved swimming and paddle boarding from the private jetty and watching the sun go down beside the fire pit was a treat. Hosts are welcoming and helpful. Highly recommended.
