The Spotlight on Ocean Trails Resort

Chill Coastal Retreat Just Minutes from the Action

Modern, spacious, and tucked among towering trees, Ocean Trails Resort in Parksville is a refreshing escape on Vancouver Island’s east coast. Located on 7 scenic acres overlooking the beautiful Rathtrevor Beach, this laid-back resort-style property is ideal for concert-goers who want the best of both worlds—peace and quiet with easy access to nearby venues and nightlife.

Why Concert-goers love it

You'll find this resort especially appealing if you're heading to a show and want downtime before or after. The quiet, residential-style setting is perfect for unwinding post-concert, and the full kitchens in every unit mean you can fuel up on your own time. While it’s not right in the thick of downtown nightlife, late-night access to your own space and free WiFi make it easy to relive your favorite tracks from the night. Plus, the flexible 4:00 PM check-in gives you plenty of time to settle in before heading out.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends who want a relaxed, self-catering space
  • Solo travelers catching a bucket-list gig who want to recharge solo
  • Couples turning a concert into a weekend getaway
  • Fans looking for a quiet place to chill post-show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who don’t mind a short drive to venues

Food and Drink Options

While the resort doesn’t have onsite dining, the full kitchens in every unit make it easy to cook up a late-night snack or breakfast after a sleep-in. There are plenty of local restaurants within a short drive, and nearby Parksville has options ranging from casual takeout to sit-down meals.

Nightlife Options

This resort is more about stargazing than bar-hopping, but if you’re looking for action, nearby pubs and lounges in Parksville are just a short drive away. Want to stay in? The peaceful setting and on-site hot tub are perfect for winding down with a drink and your favorite playlist.

What People Say

Guests rave about the clean, comfortable units, friendly staff, and the gorgeous natural surroundings. The proximity to the beach and availability of amenities like tennis courts and a pool make it a hit for travelers looking to mix a concert night with a mini-vacation.

Areas for Improvement

Ocean Trails Resort isn’t ideal if you want to walk to live music venues or bars—you’ll need a car or rideshare to get around. Also, there’s no on-site restaurant or bar, so plan meals ahead if you’re arriving late.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers who want a quiet, beachside place to recharge after the show, Ocean Trails Resort delivers space, serenity, and comfort—all with a West Coast vibe.

Ocean Trails delights

Liked: Short walk to the beach entrance. TheMulti level ramp to the beach could be challenging for those with mobility issues. The beach itself however was nothing short of SPECTACULAR !

Very adequate for our stay....

Liked: Special mention to the staff on the phone, being extremely friendly and helpful... reassuring me that late arrival would not be a problem and texting me the details for late check in.
Disliked: Stairs and balcony covered in dirt/leaves.... would benefit from someone giving it a clean with a broom/dustpan.

Fun place to stay with...

Liked: It was a great set up and location. It was nice to have a washer and dryer for the clothes. The beach is a super close walk away through a code protected gate. The pool and hot tub were heated and fun for all. The kids loved the playground too! We were able to cook a lot of our meals there. Would stay again for sure!
Disliked: We could’ve used some more garbage bags. There was no sponge or scrub brush for doing dishes. The knives could be sharpened or there could be a knife sharpener there. Very minor things.

Quiet and relaxing . 5...

Liked: Quiet , advertised pool and hot tub but sadly I was informed at check I n that neither were available . Later on saw many people gathered in hot tub so I was confused . Water therapy was key for me to relax so I was slightly disappointed .
Disliked: As above . Everything was great . A view of the water would have made it perfect but I just needed a night away . Great spot
