Spectacular Waterfront Home. Breathtaking ocean views.

Welcome to your luxurious vacation rental in Buckley Bay, on Vancouver Island in beautiful British Columbia! This exquisite 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom property is a coastal paradise. Situated right on the oceanfront, you'll be greeted by breathtaking ocean views every morning.

The location is ideal for exploring the wonders of Vancouver Island. The property is close to Courtenay, Comox, Cumberland and Mount Washington. Also, the sandy beaches of Parksville are just south, and the ferry to Denman and Hornby Islands is just 1km down the road. The large grassy yard is perfect for kids to run and play, and you can keep an eye on them while enjoying the ocean view.

For water enthusiasts, you can swim, kayak or paddleboard straight from the beach, immersing yourself in the serene waters of the bay. And when it's time to savor a delicious meal, fire up the BBQ for some outdoor grilling.

As the sun sets, gather around your private firepit to toast marshmallows and share stories under the starry sky. And don't forget to indulge in the freshest oysters, plucked right from the beach. This vacation rental in Buckley Bay offers an unforgettable blend of luxury, nature, and adventure.

We live next door to the Beach House - the 2 houses are on an acre of property, but private to each other. Built at the same time, careful consideration was made so each house took full advantage of the wonderful views without imposing on the other house’s privacy. We hope you have a wonderful stay! John and Sue. Please note this property does not have a hot tub.

It was wonderful. Relaxing and handy to tourist areas and groceries. Screens on the windows would have been nice to avoid bugs, but there weren’t a lot of bugs

Summer Vacation on Vancouver Island
My family had a great time at the Beach House. We explored the Trent River looking for fossils and swam in the shallow pools, swam and paddle boarded in the Comox Lake Dam, and mountain biked in Cumberland. There isn't a lack of activities to do in this area. We also relaxed on the deck overlooking the view of the water and Denman Island. We took a day trip to Hornby Island and went to Tribune Bay to laze on the beach and take a dip in the ocean. I would definitely recommend this home to others. Make sure to bring ear plugs for the upstairs bedroom as it is next to a road with loud vehicles, but this is minimal compared to everything else that is wonderful about our stay!

Accuracy Of Online Listing
We are two couples, all over 59 who stayed here for several nights in June, 2024. We found that listing of on-site property amenities was misleading as bicycles, golf, kayaks, water park, and water sports equipment were not on-site. There is a great view of the water from the house and upper deck, however, it was not a peaceful stay as there is a high volume of traffic and noise throughout the day and night. The property has a row windows on the second floor facing East to see the sun rise. However, when this room heats up, there are no window or patio door screens to let air flow through or window blinds to shield the room heating up. This made staying in the room uncomfortable. As there is no AC, and without window screens to let air in and keep the bugs out, the bedroom also heated up and we had sleepless nights. There is no ceiling fan in the bedroom and using the portable fans are loud and noisy. The booking and communication with the host before we arrived was very good and the host shared a lot of good island spots to visit. However, there was no communication from the host (who was on vacation) or the property manager (Natasha) to our questions and concerns during our stay. Just a note to say that the beach is not sandy and made up of rock, clams, oysters and other crustaceans which makes it difficult to walk on. We hope the honesty of this review will help make you more informed decision. Mike, Donna, Rob, Lorry

John and Sue are amazing owners who ensure your stay meets and exceeds your expectations. They are accessible for any questions you may have, but also give you the privacy to enjoy their property and all it has to offer. Our party of six loved our early morning paddle sessions and the ease of using a wonderful trail that lead from the property into the open ocean.

Beach House Buckley Bay
Fantastic location, wonderful house set up and excellent amenities. Truly. The hosts thought of everything. The host was responsive and the property was everything as advertised. Perhaps I’m a little naive, but I found the price a little high. Overall it was a wonderful experience and we intend to go back. Thank you!

Very Relaxing Spot
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Buckley Bay! We had our toddler in tow and the playpen/baby gate available were greatly appreciated. Lots of grass for our little one to run around and we loved exploring the beach out front. The house has everything you could need to feel at home (the beds were especially comfortable). We can’t wait to return and will be recommending it to our friends and family!

Not 100% private
Me, my husband and son stayed at this beach house. It was very nice and enjoyable. The view was amazing, the hot tub was as well. The only complaint I have is that if the family wasn’t home it wouldn’t be private at all unless you are inside. The way they describe the privacy is a bit misleading. Their house is right beside the beach house, they have huge windows and if you walk on to the balcony you could see them and they could see you. The yard is like 60% private if the neighbours don’t come outside. The neighbours have a long deck that goes into the backyard, if they wanted to have a fire they could see into the beach house from their fire pit, they can also see into the beach house through the kitchen window. Luckily we didn’t see anyone at all so I don’t think anyone was home. Other then lack of privacy it was enjoyable, the beach house is beautiful and was very relaxing. It was a nice get away. Also beware of bats while in the hot tub at nighttime, we were in the hot tub and suddenly this bay starts flying around us getting closer and closer until we decided to make a run for it haha

We loved the view of the water, Denman Island and the ferries crossing. The house provided separate sleeping areas for our adult son and a large open kitchen, dining and living area to enjoy together. The weather was cool and rainy so we were not able to take advantage of the outdoor area.

Spring Break
Had a lovely few days at Buckley Bay. John was a wonderful communicator leading up to our trip with lots of helpful information and suggestions.The property was beautiful, clean and perfectly laid out for our family of 5. It is right off the island hwy which is great from a location perspective and the Fanny bay oyster shop is just down the road with amazing seafood!The kids had lots of fun between the grassy area and the beach and you can’t beat waking up to the beautiful ocean view and cooking in the kitchen. The hot tub was a big hit too! Literally the only tiny criticism is the main bedroom faces the road so with the window open you can hear some traffic but closed no issues. We had an awesome time visiting all the local places, eating crab, playing spike ball, we could have stayed a week longer! Thank you John and Sue, we’ll be back! 😁
