Christmas Break in Parksville

Beach Walk

Over the Christmas break we were looking for a getaway close to Vancouver. Parksville has been on our list of places to go for a while and we got a really good deal at the Tigh Na Mara resort.

Tigh Na Mara Room

The hotel was perfect for us. Our suite had a bedroom for Astrid, a lovely view of the ocean, a cozy fireplace, and a full kitchen where we cooked almost all of our meals. We spent a lot of time at the resort hanging out in the room, splashing in the pool, and enjoying the beach and playground.

Parksville is more of a summer destination but it was also fun in the winter.

We’re looking forward to going back in the summer when we can check out the amusement parks, play mini golf, and swim in the ocean.
