Guest Reviews
- Guest (10/5): It was perfect will stay again - Great location and staff
- Brad (8/5): -
- PeterMarianne (10/5): - I have stayed here a couple of times and always come back because of location, service and the comfortable accommodation. It offers everything you need for a quiet night and at a very reasonable rate. A short walk across the street and you are on a beautiful beach.
- Susan (9/5): -
- Gwen (8/5): I would recommend this as location was excellent, staff were good, and it was quiet. - Location: near the beach, restaurants, walkable area
Quiet and very clean, Phone service very poor unless you stand outside on the balcony. Calls kept being dropped. Wifi and texting and email worked very well

- marisah (7/5): Good value - Good value, location and beds were very comfortable The room was freezing when we arrived, heat wasnt turned on and it took about 2 hours to warm up! It’s February why is the heat off 🥲 Also there’s a smart tv but no remote so we could only watch cable?? Weird
- Marianne (10/5): Excellent stay. - The room and facility was a very pleasant surprise...very clean and comfortable and quiet..a peekaboo view of the sea and a beautiful sunrise through the window.
The extra bonus was real cream for your morning coffee...a lovely bonus.
Highly recommend this motel. There was nothing to not like.

- Michael Ludwig (9/5): -
- Patrick (10/5): -
- Jodi (10/5): -
- Margaret (10/5): Excellent - The rooms are large and spacious. Even thought we didn’t request it, the room had 2 king size beds, which gives an idea of how large the room is. Large screen tv, good for Stanley Cup hockey games, microwave, refirdgerator and Koerig coffee maker. Nothing not to like except that the rooms look out onto the parking lot, but not really a problem.
- DEIDRE (10/5): -

- Jonathan (8/5): -
- With A Zebra (8/5): -
- Jordan (2/5): Nicely redone room but so loud on the bottom floor that I didn't stay for the 2nd night I paid for - The quaint little room had clearly been remodeled with nice new floors, countertops, fixtures. Lots of lighting, multiple plaecs to sit, a Kuerig with plenty of coffee pods. Noise. It's just an old building and if I'd been on the first floor it probably would have been great. But being on the bottom floor, I could hear every footstep, movement, plumbing usage of my very active neighbors above me. I ended up skipping the second night of my reservation and driving home 2 hours late at night to avoid trying to sleep through the noise again.
- Dieter (9/5): - Klassisches Motel, ein Tisch und zwei Sessel im Zimmer. Ăśber die StraĂźe und schon ist man am Strand.
- Sébastien (8/5): -
- Fitzsimmons (10/5): -
- Marian (10/5): - Cleanliness ... absolutely awesome !!!!

I will recommend this morel to everyone coming to the island !!!!
Unknown gem !
- crh (9/5): - Motel très bien situé en face de la plage de Qualicum Beach, restaurants à proximité. Chambre spacieuse, confortable avec réfrigérateur et machine à café.
- Justine (8/5): -
- Brigitte (8/5): -
- M (9/5): Best place to stay that won't break the bank - Easy to find, cheap, clean Nothing
- Darren (10/5): - The office person had difficulty understanding me when I asked a question about the room or property, but that was a very minor issue. The other staff were all super-friendly and helpful. Room was clean, and sufficient for our needs. Would have appreciated a vent in the kitchenette, as without one we triggered the smoke & heat alarm while cooking. I took the hotplate outside to finish cooking to resolve the smoke detector issue.
- Neil (8/5): - Great location and price
- Damian (4/5): - B
- Grant (10/5): - We liked everything
- Celine (8/5): -
- peter (10/5): - Very clean
- Carla (9/5): Our family loved hanging out at the beach at sunset. - Super lovely staff.
- Raymond (8/5): - Very pleasant place with friendly, helpful staff. Facilities very clean and well maintained. An outdoor hot tub, barbecue area would be a nice edition-outdoor upper deck not really functional.
- Denyse (8/5): Check in was easy and staff friendly. Parking is marked according to unit which is a great idea since the space is limit - There have been quality upgrades to the unit which were very good. New vanity & sink. Newish comfortable beds. Good water pressure. They really need to upgrade the chairs. Tattered and uncomfortable chairs covered by someone’s grandmother. The cushions were sagging and looked dirty.
- Karen (8/5): Was convenient for what we needed - Staff was pleasant Spiders and the smell otherwise it fit our purpose
- Thomson (9/5): - Nice and quiet !
- Russell (10/5): - Ocean Crest Motel is the cleanest motel I have ever stayed in. The attention to small details is wonderful. You will find yourself noticing these details throughout your stay.
The girl at check-in was professional and friendly. I would highly recommend.
- Jim (7/5): -
- Susanne (9/5): -
- Shepherd (9/5): -
- Mary (9/5): Good peaceful rest. - None Na
- Nadine (10/5): Angenehmer Zwischenstopp am Meer - Schöne Lage in der Nähe eines Strandes, wo man spazieren oder spielen kann. Nicht zum Baden. Sehr freundliches Personal und liebevoll dekoriertes Zimmer. Trotz Nähe zur Strasse sehr leise. Hatten das letzte Zimmer im oberen Stock.
- Nick (10/5): - The owners are really nice people felt easy there. Rooms very nice.
- Susan (8/5): Perfect - Perfect for a quick stop on my way south. Clean and comfortable and good location

- Jackie (10/5): - Room was super clean and comfy!
- Debi (10/5): -
- Meghan (9/5): A great stay, very clean and comfortable! - Location was cute, and just across the road from the ocean. Very convenient to park right in front of our room. The staff were kind and helpful, the tv, coffee bar, etc were all great!
- Tracey (9/5): -
- Kevin (10/5): - Great Place , clean , very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend.
- Marianne (10/5): -
- les (8/5): - Quiet, good room amenities
- Phillipa (9/5): Excellent place to stay in Qualicum Beach - A great value, comfortable place to stay in lovely Qualicum Beach. Very comfortable bed with luxury bed linens.Decent coffee choices, earl grey tea in the room and chocolates in reception.
Short walk to the beach and to a couple of restaurants. Only 1 bedside light in our room, no 202 with a navy light shade, too dark to read by. 2 lights with cream or white shades would make the room perfect.
- Sarah (8/5): - Clean and comfortable
- Deborah (1/5): -
- Wayne (9/5): The Ocean Crest is a old school, clean and quiet property with easy access to the beach - Very clean and quiet Had a god cable system or the large, flat screen TV and a Keurig coffee maker with a small fridge and microwave. We ran out of toilet paper and could have used a better supply of towels The AC unit was quirky and didn’t maintain the set temperature, resulting in th room becoming either too cold or too warm overnight. No exhaust fan in bathroom.
- Mark (10/5): - Very clean. We liked the location too.
- CLAUDE (7/5): Bien - Bien.
- Salena (6/5): - Stay here was okay - clean room and well equipped (microwave, mini fridge). Friends stayed down the road a bit and had ocean views at a less expensive price so unless the kitchen is important to you, would recommend a stay elsewhere closer to the beach and restaurants.
- Katie (9/5): Good quality motel - I would happily stay here again. - Very clean and comfortable, reasonable price, close to beach and a very short drive to the centre. A very good quality motel.
- Corina (9/5): -
- Teri Paige (10/5): - My room was right at the end of the building. Quiet, private, and I could park right outside my door. Super convenient! The young man at the front desk was delightful. Very friendly and helpful.
- zora (10/5): - Nice surprise for a motel. Renovated bathroom counter. Had everything we needed. A nice beach across the road.
Good value.
Quirky switches for lights and the bathroom fan.
- Robert (7/5): -
- Deborah (10/5): Thank you Ocean Crest, I enjoyed my stay! - I needed a room for 2 nights and Ocean Crest came through for me which I'm incredibly grateful. The staff were amazing, very friendly and accommodating. The room was very clean and well made up - i was very grateful for the A/C! Location is fantastic...Beach access is just across the street.
Thank you, Ocean Crest!
- Robert (8/5): Great for a one night stay - Clean and remodeled room. Quiet and great location. Bed comfortable. Breakfast
- arno (8/5): - COMPACT WELL ORGANIZED CLEAN ROOM WITH TWO QUEEN SIZE COMFORTABLE BEDS. WELL EQUIPPED FOR A SHORT STAY. GOOD VALUE FOR THE PRICE
