Best bang for your buck
We were given a choice of which room we wanted. We went with an older cabin with a kitchenette, our friends went with a newly renovated room. Both had their own charm. For the price this was an excellent place to stay. Close to everything we wanted to do. Very quiet even though it was right on the highway. clean, comfortable accommodations

A Hidden Gem on Island Highway
We were most impressed with the cleanliness and all the supplies, accoutrements and the service. The room itself was a nine out of ten, certainly of higher standard than the basic street appearance of the property.
We would definitely stay again. the Bargain of the Summer.

Wonderful little motel with lots of shopping and food nearby. Walking around is a bit difficult with a busy street and minimal crossings, but the motel itself is well worth the price.

I’ve been travelling to Parksville for years to visit my parents. This was my first time staying at Skylite Motel and it will likely be my goto from now on. Great location, walking distance to my parents apartment, close to lots of amenities. The only thing I would recommend the motel consider is the addition of a coat rack or some hooks because there was nowhere to hang jackets and clothes.
