Qualicum Beach is one of several Berwick locations across Vancouver Island with close proximity to the scenery and beauty of the Strait of Georgia. The location alone is ideal, but that's just the canvas Berwick uses to create a uniquely excellent lifestyle. For starters, all your housekeeping and laundry are done for you.

Carol Gemgembre, resident

I am delighted to be living at Qualicum Berwick; the whole experience has surpassed my expectations. The staff is always friendly and responsive to our requests, and the residents have been very welcoming; it’s been easy to make friends. Our meals are tasty and nutritious, with every special occasion celebrated.
The building is truly a small museum of furniture, paintings, and interesting artifacts. If you happen to have time between the numerous activities available, you can enjoy the very comfortable conservatory, the beautiful solarium, the coffee shop, or the English-style bar. I plan to live many happy years here.

There is a real sense of ongoing independence here. Some places talk about it, but it’s really happening here. My parents have choices, they can live their own lives, but have the help that they want.
