Our family has been vacationing in the Okanagan for ten years. Our children are 5 and 7. We are very particular about where we stay as far as cleanliness and activities for the children are concerned. For several years we stayed at Predator Ridge Golf Course- very clean but too far from amenities and getting a bit run down. Last... More

Our Family has stayed at the Strand Lakeside Resort every year for the past 5 years. We love it! The rooms are clean, you have two bathrooms and a great deck... especially if you rent a loft unit. The pool is great, and you can dock your boat right there. Vernon has some of the best lakes if you like... More

Stayed one night in unit usually rented by the week. Overpriced and paid "weekly" cleaning charge. Asked for permission to check out late next day at 4pm since condo was empty. Given permission by front staff and told "no problem". Not advised of any possible fee or charges or we would have checked out at normal time. When we did... More

Our family reunion was in Vernon this year. Most of our family had their RV's and stayed at the Sandy Beach Campground (which as the name suggests, has a great sandy beach and clear gorgeous water). We; however, are not campers and I wanted to find a quiet, lovely condo on the lake that was within a 5 min drive... More

We stayed here in a 2 bedroom unit for five nights with our kids and my wife's parents. The units are gorgeous, with great kitchen appliances, king beds in the bedrooms, and the unit had a nice balcony with a view over the courtyard. With the hide-a-bed in the couch, it slept all of us comfortably. Our kids loved the... More

We stayed 2 nights in a 2 bed condo; VERY expensive esp. given the fact we were overlooking the road and not the lake. It seemed pretty quiet for a mid-July weekend so, thankfully, the small-ish pool area was not overcrowded. Apparently the beach is not for swimming from which was a little disappointing.

My wife and I stayed at the Strand for 2 months January and February 2012, we enjoyed a 2 bedroom plus Den facing the lake. The accomodation exceeded our expectation. The Service Manager Zelda and her staff went out of their way to make our extended stay a home away from home. We have booked for an other two months... More

What a shame! Such a beautiful resort, but quickly going down hill...Sorry, but the word "Resort" shouldn't be in the title, its deceiving. A resort usually has plenty of staff who jump at the chance to address your every need. Not here. There wasn't anyone around. We didnt' see one staff member the three days we were there. It was...

I booked with The Strand because I had always been curious about it. To start, if you show up in the evening or on a weekend you have to fend for yourself because there is NO ONE working there. So we had forgotten our code to get our room key in Alberta and it took several calls to finally get... More
