Beachfront Inn with Direct Skaha Lake Access in Penticton
Beachfront & Location
Waterfront Inn sits directly on Skaha Lake, offering access to one of Canada's most popular beaches. Guests walk two minutes to Skaha Lake Beach and the adjacent Skaha Lake Park, a large green space with an off-leash dog area. The hotel is 1 kilometre from Penticton Regional Airport and within 2 kilometres of Skaha Bluffs Provincial Park and La Frenz Estate Winery.
On-Site Recreation
The hotel provides a tennis court and a children's playground on the property. Guests can use the spa tub and sauna after a day outdoors. Barbecue grills are available for social gatherings, and the sun terrace overlooks the lake and park.
Accommodations
Waterfront Inn has 20 air-conditioned rooms with waterfront views across the street from the lake. Select units feature full kitchens with stoves and refrigerators, and all rooms include private entrances accessible from exterior corridors. Family rooms with separate sleeping areas accommodate groups and are equipped with two televisions.
Family & Pet Policies
The hotel welcomes families with a dedicated children's playground on-site and family rooms that sleep up to five guests. Pets are allowed for an additional fee of $10 per night, with direct access to the park and beach for walks. The property also features a waterpark (subject to seasonal operation) for younger guests.
Wine Country Access
Penticton sits in the heart of British Columbia's wine region, with over 80 local vineyards and wineries within a short drive. Guests can walk to La Frenz Estate Winery or join wine tours arranged by the hotel. The nearby Penticton Convention Centre hosts events year-round.
Highlights
Location: Direct Skaha Lake beach access, 2 min walk
Accommodations: 20 waterfront-view rooms with kitchen options
Family: Children's playground, family rooms, waterpark
Pet: Pets allowed at $10/night
Wine: 80+ local wineries, walking distance to La Frenz
“With Skaha Lake at its doorstep, this property emphasizes simple pleasures-barbecues, beaches, and family time. The vibe is old-school motor inn, but the location is truly the thing: steps from the park and that glorious beach. For those who want to explore further, the proximity to Penticton's eighty-plus wineries could be quite a perk.”
