Nanaimo and Vancouver Island isn't meant for shopping or fine dining. If you want the city life, stick to big cities. Going to Vancouver Island is about getting connected back to nature, reflection and finding some quiet time and so, it's mostly about outdoor activities like hiking, skiing, surfing, beaches etc. And there are endless opportunities to do so.

On entering this place looks great however once in the elevator and getting to your room it’s very tired and run down. The room was adequate with queen bed and great view but dirty had not been cleaned the floor was filthy and covered in the previous tenants hair we had very loud neighbours slamming doors into the early hours. The bathroom needs work the shower taps don’t make sense takes ages to get temperature right then it constantly goes colder. The staff were of no use at all and i would never stay here again 😞

We loved Nanaimo and loved the other places we visited.
We loved Nanaimo and loved the other places we visited. We flew into Victoria and stayed one night and then continued on up north towards Nanaimo, Parksville, Nanoose Bay. We then left and we towards Sidney and back to Victoria. The whole island was so beautiful to see in the fall.

Nanaimo was a good destination for a relaxing get-away.
Nanaimo was a good destination for a relaxing get-away. We toured a number of great beach areas including Piper's Lagoon (go when the tide is out of the lagoon, then you are able to do the incredible hike up and around the hill portion of this picturesque spot.), Neck Point was even more scenic, many incredible photo ops. We also went to Lantzville but didn't find public beach access but good views from the ends of roads. Parksville Beach where again the tide was fairly far out but on its way in. We took a drive up to Coombs but were quite disappointed as many of the unique craft shops from the past years were no longer there, the highly recommended Italian Bistro Cuckoos was closed Tues & Wed so we missed our planned lunch there, and the only really nice thing was the goats on the roof, as always. The main shop beneath the goats was far too crowded with tourists, so were the outside areas, so we left without the fun experience we had thought it would be. Overall, there are many destinations in and around Nanaimo to explore, but make sure you have a road map! Getting around the older dowtown section was not easy, much construction going on, so we were not able to stop to explore the old part, nor could we find parking for the Harbour Walk. Still, we do want to return and explore more of the whole area!

I grew up around there and was forced to vacation local because of the pandemic, so it was a little underwhelming for me. The city has a nice seawall around the harbour for walking. If you have a car, there are lots of nice places to visit in under an hour's drive.

Great Old City Quarter, and Gay Village with cool shops and restaurants. Really nice waterfront for walks and if you have kids excellent playgrounds. We ate at the Modern Cafe, great selection, good prices, wonderful staff. It's a very handy stop over if you are taking a ferry to another destination.

AnnArthur Guest House
Nanaimo
From $100 per nightI travelled solo and found this awesome home to stay, walking distance to sea wall, and downtown. Bowen Park is 1 block away where you will find amazing trails to hike. The ocean view from their porch is breathtaking. Wayne and Michele are the best host you could ever meet, attention to details, cleanliness and the outmost best customer service you could ever ask for. Michele’s homemade soaps and banana bread are a great touch while staying at their beautiful home. Many thanks to both I will surely come back 🌷

Rockwood House
Nanaimo
The hosts were very friendly and helpful. They gave us a lot of pointers on where to go and what to see. Breakfast was always very delicious and full of options. It’s in a great location - easy to get to and under a 10 minute drive to get to downtown (harbour, restaurant and shops). The room was spacious and very clean. Beds were big and comfy. WiFi worked wonderfully and we were even given access to Netflix!
