Welcome to The Buccaneer Inn home of Nanaimo's highest rated inn and featuring one bedroom oceanview kitchen suites!

Nanaimo is home to some of the world's most beautiful natural scenery. From lush temperate rainforests on mountain vistas to our world famous harbour, Nanaimo is the centre of your Vancouver Island visit.

Whether you are on business or a holiday, Nanaimo's central Vancouver Island location makes it the perfect place to base yourself for daytrips or a regional meeting. Nanaimo is a short daytrip away from Victoria, Duncan, Chemainus, Parksville, Qualicum Beach, Courtenay, Campbell River, Cathedral Grove and Port Alberni. Those on more of a tighter schedule can use Nanaimo as their base for trips to Tofino, Long Beach, Ucluelet, Pacific Rim National Park, Port Renfrew, Sooke and the Juan de Fuca Trail.

And while you are in Nanaimo you should consider staying at one of Vancouver Island's hidden gems. You'll receive a warm welcome from your hosts, Dave, Marlene and Christopher at The Buccaneer Inn. Their Canada Select 3.5 Star and AAA 2 Diamond motel is rated the most popular hotel or motel in Nanaimo by TripAdvisor.com and has been everyday since 2004!

The Buccaneer Inn features one bedroom kitchen suites with a separate bedroom and full kitchen facilities (one suite even has a wood-burning fireplace) and small economical studios. All their accommodation is done in a cozy beach house theme with down duvets, free high speed internet, games and books and a great selection of coffee and teas.

Dave and Marlene's small, personal, family owned and operated, Vancouver Island hotel style accommodation, has been Nanaimo's highest rated motel since 1998! Dave, Marlene and Christopher have spent years traveling the world over and have learned what you need in order to have a comfortable stay at a price that's right. Their beds are famously comfortable. Their service is genuine, warm and friendly. And their rooms are always spotlessly clean.

Many of our guests tell us that our property is similar in amenities and value as a well run Best Western, Travelodge or Ramada inn or all suite hotel. While their property is independently owned and operated by family and staff, they do appreciate that they can offer the many amenities of a hotel but also offer outstanding personal service. They take great pride in helping ensure that all their guests enjoy all of their stay to Nanaimo and Vancouver Island by providing personalized travel, restaurant, leisure and business information to make most of your time in the Harbour City.

Enjoy your visit to Nanaimo and Vancouver Island and rest easy at The Buccaneer Inn!
