Great location, friendly staff.. shower head needs to be able to move as hit shower wall a which made it not a good shower especially for shorter people. Bedroom attire needs to be updated . Love the kitchen suite . Smoke detector is a bit sensitive when cooking . Kitchen should include salt & pepper shakers , cookie sheet or something to bake on . Pool out of swrvice this trip . Hopefully get to try it next time in town .

Hi Chantelle, thanks for taking the time to write a review and for sharing so many positives about your experience with us. I must say, I'm a bit surprised that the shower head issue and a lack of salt and pepper were enough to earn us such a terrible score on this review. Did you mean to give us a one star?Either way, please note that most every motel and hotel who offers kitchen suites has cookie sheets and salt and pepper on hand for guests, typically upon request. Next time you're passing through town, please feel free to reach me directly and I will be more than happy to ensure that your next experience staying with us is perfect.Thanks again,Scott

Motel was reasonably quiet, given it was full and the Saturday of the long weekend. Reasonably priced.

Thanks for your great review Lesley! Our quiet time hours are strictly enforced at Beachside Motel as the guests who frequent this property are often early risers and families, so our 11pm quiet time means the world to many of our guests.

Room was small, but we found it clean and comfortable. Staff at the front desk were friendly. We loved how close the motel in to Skaha Lake beach. Very convenient location and parking is great. If you are looking for an inexpensive option, this is a great choice.

Pros: Nicely renovated bathroom for the price of the room. Location is close to beach and has easy access to the highway and main roads. Good stay for the price. Cons: Room was very small. Took a bit to figure out the a/c. Wifi was good but no space to do work on computer except on the bed.

If it wasn’t for the carpet in the room, I would have given a MUCH higher rating. Everything was very clean and in good condition. The carpet, however, was disgusting. Stained and dirty and really provided a more negative impression of the facility.

Cleanliness wasn’t the greatest as sand and some grime was around the rooms when we checked in. Great location to Skaha beach and friendly staff albeit one older lady closed the office quite a few times and was sitting in the back and not as knowledgeable about the area as you’d expect front counter staff to be. Great BBQ area for evening relax time.

The outside of the motel room was pretty decent. I wouldn't say the place was that clean unfortunately as the floors had dirt in each corner, carpet in bedroom didn't look vacuumed, dishes weren't the most clean, etc. Wishing they'd update the space some more and change the lighting to not be florescent. They've got a great location, it's just unfortunate with the rooms not feeling welcoming.

Check in was easy, friendly and quick. Room was large, with kitchen, tv, air conditioning and bright bathroom- all functioning well. All linens were old, stained and worn out. One silverfish big in bed. Parking was easy, and our night was pleasant and quiet. Pool is clean and warm. Sauna locked closed.

Some of the electrical outlets didn’t work. The tv didn’t work( which they did try to fix but didn’t work) the floor was absolutely filthy. We took a towel and wiped it and it came up black. Feel we deserve a refund and we’ll never stay there again. This is the second time we’ve stayed at one of the three motels and weren’t happen with any of them but last night was the topping on the cake!

This was our first visit to the property, the room we had was clean and had great air conditioning for the warm weather. The décor of the room was dated, but everything worked and the room was clean. The center area was great for hanging out and cooking on the shared BBQs (cleaned daily). The staff was helpful and welcoming. Distance to the beach was great. We will be back!

Paying mostly for location
Location was amazing! The motel itself was really old/tired feeling. Room was spacious enough, and having a full refrigerator when visiting fruit country is a huge benefit. The A/C was really only limited to the bedroom though, and was very loud. Bedding was very slippery and kept needing adjustment through the night. Bathroom was incredibly small with a shower only and no tub.

Definitely nothing fancy. Outdated and simple but the staff were great and the room was clean. Although we didn't use it, they have a nice outdoor area with two large BBQs and a few picnic tables which would be great for families or bigger groups. The 2 minute walk to Skaha lake is the biggest plus. We will be back again before the end of summer!

The room looked a little tired and could do with a refresh. Some bright curtains and cushions would make all the difference. The pillows on the bed were almost non existent and need to be replaced. We were only in the area foe a night so it was fine but if I had been staying longer it would have been nice to have a full set of dishes.

Hi Don, thanks for the great review and sorry to hear that there was confusion on the pricing. Expedia quotes their customers the pre-tax price and then leaves it to us to charge the taxes on top. We do run into this issue quite frequently as it is Expedia's standard practice. Regardless, we are glad you enjoyed your stay and welcome you back any time!

Nice enough motel. Rooms are definitely a 1970s time capsule, but very clean. Reading lamps on both sides of the bed would be a great idea. Fine for the one night we needed, and nothing would stop me from staying again.
