$250 room deposit which is just not feasible as an owner operated small business. I asked why it’s so high and they told me it was because someone tampered with sprinkler. That’s the risk you take owning a hotel having random people stay there. You can’t penalize the other guests. You would think they would want to attract the working class but they are doing just the opposite.

Thank you for the feedback, Benjamin. We are sorry about the confusion with the damage deposit. The hold is a common practice for possible incidental charges, but it is released off your card promptly after check-out.

Our first time staying at the Oceanside Coast hotel in Sechelt. You can’t beat the location right on the beach. Although there is lots of traffic in front of the hotel after a while you don’t notice it. Front desk staff was wonderful. In the lobby they have a specialty coffee machine which is a bonus. Suites are nicely renovated and roll down blinds are great. The only thing we noticed that the balcony doors are old and heavy. Overall we had a wonderful stay and I would recommend the hotel.

We were delighted to be staying near the iconic pier @ Davis Bay! Stunning view from our ground level, one bedroom suite. Staff helpful when we couldn’t get the blind down with the remote/power button. They were busy but they came by to fix. Beds were so comfy! Obvious upgrades! Delightful shower head and instant hot water. Great location for “Joes” a must eatery and little shop carrying the tasty Davis Bay Tea. Also it was quiet despite being on the main hwy. we really loved our stay!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay in Oceanside. It looked exactly like the pictures but the view was honestly way better in person. The only comment we could make was the mattress was quite loud so any time we moved, we would wake up from the sound. Seemed like there was a plastic covering that wasn’t taken off. Otherwise everything was great and we would stay again.

Oceanside was a great convenient stop right beside the highway. The full glass window to the ocean with the wonderful patio was a great feature. Comfortable bed and modern classy bathroom were also great features. The attached restaurant, Joe’s On The Beach, was significant better than typical hotel restaurants. All in all, this was a great stopover hotel.

It’s an older property but clean and well maintained. The staff was nice. We were put in the suite above the restaurant so it was very noisy due to that but the suite itself was spacious and had a beautiful enclosed balcony with a view of the ocean. We would definitely stay there again.

This hotel is just across the street from a pier out into the bay. long beach for walking along. although it was too cold to walk along we did visit in the car and watch seals fishing along the surf. we were just down the rd from the family we were here to visit. we were very happy with our stay on the sunshine coast.

Enjoyed our stay at Oceanside. The rooms had everything we needed with nice view of ocean. Bit of street noise during the day because it’s on main road but very quiet at night. Comfy beds. We really enjoyed the restaurant that is connected to hotel (Joe’s) and it is next to a great cafe/coffee shop called Gourmet Girl. Perfect location on lower coast. Our room was warm and clean. Note that there’s no bath tub but a nice shower with great shower pressure. Friendly staff!

The people running the place were really sweet and accommodating. We asked for extra pillows and they brought them up really quickly, plus any time we contacted them via the room phone they picked up right away. Clean room, modern fixtures, plenty of soaps and lotions. The only downside is that the TV selection (even PPV) is so minimal as to be pointless. It would make more sense to offer DVDs than to expect people to get any value out of watching basic cable.
