Marina Park: West Kelowna

Overview:
This park has a pebble beach, a grass area, a covered picnic facility and a playground. It is perfect for those with small children as both the park and beach areas are fenced in.

Thoughts:
A great little park in West Kelowna that has everything. The beach is there for hot summer days, a new playground structure for the kids to play on grassy areas, and a covered picnic area makes this the perfect destination.

Due to the limited beach options in West Kelowna though I can see this place becoming very busy during the summer season.

Pros:
Beach, grass, picnic and playground all in a fenced park area.

Cons:
Not very big and not a lot of other options around so it could become quite busy.

Super 8: West Kelowna

Overview:
Near Skiing and Wineries of the Okanagan, with Indoor Pool, Hot Tub and Free Breakfast Buffet

Your wonderful visit to Okanagan Valley starts when you book your stay at our Super 8 West Kelowna BC Canada hotel. With free SuperStart continental breakfast buffet, free Wi-Fi Internet access, in room coffee and tea, indoor pool, hot tub and fitness room at our West Kelowna BC hotel, you’ll never want to go home.

We're proud to offer conveniently located top-notch lodgings for family and business travelers alike. Easy access to wineries, golf courses, restaurants and more means you'll come back for skiing, fishing and sightseeing every year.

Thoughts:
This is a decent hotel and a little bit cheaper than surrounding hotels.  The rooms are a bit small and there are no suites and only 1 large room with a king bed and pull out couch.

The pool was warm and the hot tub was nice. Combined with the hot breakfast and fitness room the amenities were definitely great for the price.

There was not much in the area so driving anywhere is a must and the restaurant was under renovations so even getting a meal you had to leave for.

Pros:
Cheaper price than other nearby hotels and the breakfast and pool were good.

Cons:
Not really close to anything and needed to drive to even get some food.
