We stayed for 2 nights during the Covid restrictions All protocols were followed and we felt very safe. The room was spotlessly clean and the staff were very welcoming. You could not ask for more! We will definitely be recommending to our friends.

For all the times I would go to Parksville as a kid,I thought it would be nice to stay in this hotel,but we never did. This past weekend my sister and I had a little getaway From when we drove in, to when we left left just like home. John and Renee are very nice and hospitable. The room smelt so clean and was comfy. It was a 9 min walk from the restaurant in Tigh Na Maria where we ate which was awesome cause we didn't need to cab. The bunnies we saw on the property were lovely. You couldn't even here the traffic on the main road at night or in the day. We will be back and this time I will bring my kids.

We love staying here - very clean, well maintained, charming little motel close to Rathtrevor Beach, the fabulous Parksville Boardwalk and next door to a new Ricki's restaurant. Arbutus Grove Motel offers exceptional value. We return every year and recommend a stay here if you are heading to or through Parksville.

Visiting Vancouver Island and ended up in Parksville for the night unexpectedly. The Arbutus Grove Motel was a great find - the grounds are lovely (including the big black bunnies who seem to make themselves at home in the green grass!) and the motel is great. The room was exceptionally clean and the linens are like new

Really enjoyed my stay at the Arbutus Grove Motel again. The staff at check-in was thoughtful, friendly and accommodating. The linens and towels always smell fresh and clean.The beds are comfortable and they have the best pillows ever. No stairs to deal with. Parking right in front of your room. Superior wifi and large flat screen TV's with lots of movie channels. But the best of all was all the little black bunnies hopping all around the property. This is my home away from home when I am in town.

We stayed there for a week while celebrating a friend's wedding. Many of the guests stayed at the motel. The first day we had a problem with a smell but the staff quickly dealt with the issue and it never recurred. The kitchenette was well-stocked and we were able to self cater easily. The only quibble we had was the sign indicating the entrance was not easy to see which lead us to drive by a couple of times until we got used to the location.

we had a very clean room, the beds were very comfy, the location was great and easy to find right on the main drag. the large front hedge blocked the traffic noise and added a quiet peaceful nights rest.
