Above the Tide Motel does not pretend to be a 5 star property. It is dated for sure, but it has a lot of good things about it too. The staff is friendly and helpful, the room was clean and the bed was comfy. Although small, the room had many conveniences, and it was was very affordable, and well located. If you like being oceanside, and I do, it has a great view of the waters between their shoreline and Quadra Island, with lots of marine birds and sea life to watch.

Great view and close to town/ferry. Comfortable room with coffee facilities appreciated. Air conditioner was too loud to sleep so had to leave off. Bathroom door needed latch repaired, but usable. Staff friendly and attentive. Would stay again.

This is a very nice spot right over the ocean, with a cool quiet backyard which is nicely set up with chairs and table for enjoying the scenery. Great spot in Campbell River in the summer time. The room is cozy and cute, homey and decorated like a little cabin.
Expansive views from the backyard of the motel.
Lovely sitting areas for guests.
Cruise ships spotting in the channel as seen from the back of the motel, a popular pastime for guests at this place lol!

The location was good as you could walk downtown. The view from the balcony was amazing. The bed was pretty good. The room was clean. The ac unit was super loud. We were surprised that the building is quite old. We expected more for the price. Location and the view is what you pay for.
