This spacious three-bedroom open-concept condo is just two blocks away from the stunning Okanagan Lake beach and parks, making it the perfect destination for families or small groups up to 6 (including children) who are looking to explore the local wineries, breweries, and all the exciting activities that Penticton has to offer. Come as guests and leave as friends.

With a prime location just minutes away from restaurants, shops, and a variety of activities, you'll never run out of things to do.

Whether you're attending a convention, concert, or just soaking up the sun on the beautiful beaches, this is the perfect spot for your getaway.

Relax in our luxurious bedrooms - one king room and two queen rooms - and enjoy the high-end hotel-quality beds and high-speed Wi-Fi. Our guests love our well-equipped kitchen, complete with everything you need, including an air fryer, and a complimentary laundry room. We also offer those extra features for remote workers, like a printer, extra screen, keyboard, desk and a high-quality office chair.

Enjoy the east-facing sun deck in the morning and covered shade BBQs in the afternoons. A private parking garage makes it easy to store your vehicle, bicycles, or sports equipment.

We believe your vacation is about relaxation and fun, so we have made it easy for you. Just load the dishwasher and take out the garbage before you leave, and we'll handle the rest.

This fully-contained condo is our secondary suite (we live mainly in our main condo in the complex). We use this secondary suite to accommodate visiting family (we have a large family) and friends. When we or they are not using it, all personal belongings are removed or stored away, giving you a great feel of a home away from home. The only thing we do not remove is our demonstration of our love for elephants - go ahead and count them if you can.
