Location

Pacific Sands tenants enjoy spectacular views of the ocean, city and North Shore mountains from our One and Two Bedroom Suites. This is a quiet and exclusive adult-oriented residential neighbourhood in Vancouver’s West End (West of Denman Street). It is nestled between Stanley Park, Lost Lagoon, English Bay, and Denman Street.

view-from-Pacific-SandsThe population of the West End is the most diverse in the downtown area. This makes it a vibrant and interesting place to live for Singles, Young Couples, Seniors, and a Rainbow of lifestyles.

We are popular with tenants because we offer the advantages that Vancouverites seek. Many are close enough to walk to their place of work in downtown Vancouver’s business district. In their leisure hours they enjoy the beauty of the natural landscape, a peaceful retreat, and the recreational lifestyle offered by the beaches, Stanley Park and the Seawall.

At Pacific Sands, you are only half a block to English Bay Beach and a few blocks to Stanley Park and Lost Lagoon. Enjoy the active lifestyle that being close to the ocean and Stanley Park encourages. If you like jogging, biking, speed skating, or walking, you’ll love the Vancouver Seawall that surrounds Stanley Park.

Stanley Park’s natural west coast atmosphere offers a back drop of majestic cedar, hemlock and fir trees and transports visitors to an environment rich in tranquility. The park abounds in wildlife and its features appeal to the naturalist, the plant lover, or anyone who would like nothing more than relax in beautiful surroundings.

Stanley Park also hosts many arts events. During the summer, you can “dance at dusk” at Ceperley Meadow, see local artists’ work at Painters’ Circle, and enjoy outdoor theatre with Theatre Under the Stars at Malkin Bowl.

Pacific Sands has the best view imaginable for the Celebration of Light Fireworks which are held over English Bay every July/August.
