We loved our stay at the blue skies property! Clean, quiet, well stocked property and a great location. Close to everything in north Nanaimo and easily accessible from many major roads. The only thing that made us give it one 4 star vs all 5 stars was the fact check-in was between 6pm-10pm, which wasnât disclosed on the original listing. Normally this wouldnât be an issue but since we were driving from AB and dealing with busy roads & ferries this meant we had only one ferry we could take to make it on time. Luckily, the ferry squeezed us on but the deadline to check in made the long drive and day much more stressful. Especially with no ferry reservations available. Had I known there was a deadline to check in, we likely wouldnât have booked. Overall, a great stay!
We loved the condo, it was very clean and had everything we needed. The walk to the lake was less than five minutes. Unfortunately the check in was challenging. When we arrived we were given a number to call from the front door and no one answered. We tried multiple times, left a message and messaged through the VRBO APP. We never got a response. We finally found our own way in after about twenty minutes of waiting. We understand that things happen but to not hear back at all from the owner is disappointing.
This location was perfect to be near family who live in Nanaimo. The condo was clean and well-equipped. It is quiet at night with comfortable beds and tower fans to keep the air moving on a still night. The Roku tv is a nice touch. Thank you fro a great two night stay. Aug 2023
