Beach Gardens Resort and Marina

The entry from the street is difficult to navigate at night because some roads and laneways have been closed, and the route from the street through a huge sloped parking lot is not well marked. The resort sits at the bottom of a hill, and it's a long uphill walk to the street. Otherwise, no complaints. Staff is friendly and helpful; the place is clean and modern. I've stayed here twice in 2023 and a couple of times many years ago. It's my hotel of choice in Powell River.

The obvious reasons why people would stay at this hotel are the view. Other than that this hotel needs a lot of work. The grounds leave something to be desired especially the driveway from the road to the hotel it was like a maze in the dark it was very poorly lit someone would never know where you were going. Next the air conditioning/heating units were so loud but you could not watch TV or sleep with them on I would have turn mine off at night. The Internet was very unreliable there’s no excuse for this in the 21st-century.

Loved the view. It just cant be beat. Property is slowly making improvments which is wonderful. Rooms could use a fresh update. The biggest issue would be the parking lot/road down to the hotel is horrible.

Front staff that greeted us were really friendly. The king ocean view rooms we had were clean but spartan. Sadly the place is a bit dated and needs a renovation to make it worth the rate. We got breakfast vouchers but the selection was minimal.

Great place to stay on the water. Nice views and comfortable bed. You can hear your neighbours at times but good place to stay.

Very poor soundproofing. Front Gym is very old but newer section in back is a little better, but not much.

Great spot on the Ocean, a little outdated but very clean and comfortable. wouldnt hesitate to go back.

When we arrived the lady at reception was quite rude we asked if we could get the room a little earlier and she was not very nice in her responce

This place is holding onto 1979 - its old and tired - nothing works Its got a great view - it must be waiting for a condo developer to buy it..
