A quality check how nice.
The front desk Chris was very nice but the really nice thing was that they called us shortly after we got settled, they called on the house phone just to check and see if we were happy with their room! Basically a QUALITY CHECK! I have never had a quality check at a hotel or motel before, restaurants yes but a motel, never. Very nice thank you Sea Edge, everything was great we will be back!

After the giant crickets in our room were removed, and people with army boots above us moved on, and the shower curtain bar was put back up we had a lovely stay.
Staff were extremely responsive and apologetic.
Location right on the beach is beautiful. They are slowly modernizing. Even though I room was super old it was very clean.

Nice views and serene.
The location was great. We walked to several restaurants nearby. It sits right on the water. The motel provides picnic tables and a fire pit so you can sit outside and look at the ocean. The view was gorgeous. The room was nice and bathroom updated with cool led lite mirror. They provide you with a fan because no AC. My only complaint is i wish the sliding door had a screen so we could have slept with door open because no window to open and it happened to be a rare hot day.

Loved my stay at the Sea Edge Motel. The rooms have been recently renovated, mine was clean and quiet and comfortable. You can’t beat the location! Right on the beach! Free parking and wifi and the staff were very friendly and accommodating.

We've stayed here many times. The motel itself is old and almost hilariously outdated, but the location is top-notch! An amazing spot for kids and extended families. Staff are very nice and it's kept clean, just don't expect anything fancy, except of course the beautiful beach out your front door.

We love that it is right on the beach at Parksville and have stayed there many times.
Only this time did we feel our room had not gotten a good clean..someones underwear in a drawer, coffee grounds in pot and beer cans on deck...minor but we did pay a high rate to stay. Will we come back...sure

This an old school motel no doubt about it. The rooms we had were not fancy by any means and certainly show wear and tear. If you are looking for the most ideal and fantastic location on a sandy beach at an affordable rate though.... this is a great place. We had our rooms full of people and no one bothered us at all. It is a very friendly place to stay with amazing beach access.
