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.

Nice property with easy access. Character of the home was great and great view of the ocean.
Great spot. The only thing I would suggest is a bit brighter signage for the address. It was a nice and relaxing home to stay in.

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!

Family Getaway
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.

Vancouver Island Getaway
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.

Comfortable and beautiful
We enjoyed our stay in this lovely home. The view from the living/dining/kitchen area was beautiful. Everything was new and fresh and clean, the kitchen was well equipped with anything we could need, the owners were helpful with recommendations for activities, etc. There was only one down side, which was that the property is very close to the road and there was constant traffic noise.

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!

Awesome Vacation Property
Accurate Listing, Very clean well maintained, Owners were very friendly. The house was perfect and Kitchen, bedrooms and ammenities were excellent. The beach was full of Oysters and rocks and was leased by an Oyster company who were very friendly and educated us on how it worked. I thought we were getting a sandy beach at low tide but no luck and was hard on your feet climbing through rocks to get to water. My family still had a great time and we would suggest this place to friends.

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! 😁

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

Nice little 'cabin' on an ocean beach of rocks and shells!
Nice little cabin-type residence on the same property, right next door, to the owners house. Beautiful spot looking out at Baynes Sound near Fanny Bay. Walk across the lawn to a beach of rocks and shells. Grab oysters right out of the ocean for dinner, best ever!! The cleanliness left a bit to be desired. There was a hair in the bathroom sink. I took lysol wipes and wiped the door knobs and light switches. I used four wipes and each one was brown when I was finished. We cleaned the countertop also. The bed was comfy but nothing wonderful. It seems like it might be an older memory foam type mattress. The hot tub was nice but it's old. The switches are worn out and difficult to determine which button is for what, ie: lights, jets etc. There are two adirondack chairs to sit on down by the ocean or by the fire pit. But only two chairs so if you have more than a couple staying they find their own seating arrangements. The T.V had Netflix and lots of channels. The washer/dryer is old school but works. The layout downstairs is a little strange but is certainly fine. There are some very nice touches to the interior making it a cute and quaint little 'cabin'. Lots of wood inside with ceiling vaults and open kitchen/living area. Very nice (but again, lets ramp up the cleaning a bit!) There are lights on the stairwell to light the steps at night, but a third of them are burned out. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, dishes, and utensils etc. (the dishwasher is noisy fyi, so don't turn it on at night) ** Beware: THERE IS NOISE FROM THE HWY AS THIS 'CABIN' IS RIGHT ON THE ISLAND HWY S. ** Overall we had a good time as we have fun together as a family. We spent time exploring Hornby Island and Denman Island. Denman is a one-road island with a general store that has bread and eggs. Hornby was a little better with a great hiking and walking trail park right along ocean cliffs! , a cool little market area (that was mostly closed down) and friendly people. The only food we could find was day old samosas at the grocery store. We enjoyed the ferry ride across. We went to hike in tall cedars in Cathedral Grove - Fun. We went to the Horne Lake Caves - the tours were closed due to the beginning of Covid19 but we walked the trail and climbed into a self guided cave - Fun. Would I return? Possibly, but I would definitely check out the area to see what else I could find first. Again, we had a great time enjoying our family time together for spring break.
