Many appreciate the heated pool, gazebos and BBQs, plus convenient parking by the rooms. Rooms are comfortable and modest, often with kitchenettes and effective AC, though some report thin walls, occasional road noise, very firm beds, or small maintenance quirks. Check-in is smooth, with personal walk-throughs and occasional upgrades. Expect a classic, well-cared-for motel stay close to the beach.

The motel has a cozy vibe and the person at the front desk was lovely. She was warm and friendly through the check-in and check-out process being very accommodating to our request to have 2 vehicles at the property. I was there for work, so I didn't get a chance to use all the amenities but from what I saw, there were BBQs, a pool, and a few areas to sit outside either in the sun or the shade. This location is tremendously convenient if you're looking to hang out at Skaha beach. It's also only about a 2 minute drive away from a Walmart to do any grocery shopping. The room was very clean with multiple towels. They don't do daily room cleanings, but you can request fresh towels by putting the used ones out by 11am. The room does come with a coffee maker, fridge/freezer, and microwave. The AC worked tremendously well for the Summer temperatures we faced. The only thing that might bother some people would be the walls are very very thin. These are portable style walls, so you will hear children, TV, or any other noises from your next door neighbour. Overall, I would 100% stay here again.

Great service from the manager and they explained everything we needed to know about the room. Very clean (with a few dusty corners) but well cleaned. The doors might need WD40 but that’s it. The AC was in the room and it was fantastic to have on the hot days. The pool was very well maintained and the perfect temperature. VERY walkable to the lake and to a few restaurants. Would stay again!

Front desk was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable! The motel is very dated (but most are in Penticton) however our room has an interesting smell that we couldn’t quite put on finger on. It wasn’t the cleanest either, lots of dust, chipped tiles on the floors. We did find a bug crawling from under the mattress one night and then the following night a bug crawled on me in the other bed. Either an earwig or silver fish…. Was gross and we left early the next day (checking out anyways) because I could not stand it anymore. Having a kitchen was nice but overall I would choose somewhere else next time.

My stay at the Valley Star Motel was pleasant. It’s an older property, but the refurbished room was spotless and tastefully simple, which I really appreciated. The room provisions were minimal but practical, including only essential toiletries, a desk, coffee maker, microwave, and fridge; essentially a tiny kitchen setup. The owner-operator who greeted me was kind and helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

We have stayed here many times. However lately the surrounding area is much busier and the rooms are in need of repairs. The floors are uneven. The shower screeches when the pressure is turned up and the water kettle had a loose connection. The worst thing was the heat building up in the early night due to a leak or pilot light in the heater.

To our surprise the room was spotless clean, open with 2 queen beds and nice big washroom with tub. And the yard and parking all super neat and clean, nice pool and bbq area . Walking 6 minutes to the beach and walking distance to restaurants. I really found a hidden gem. Thank you for making our stay pleasant one.

Staff were very nice and helpful. Property is of the same vintage as many of the other privately owned motels in the area, but this one is kept very well maintained and very clean. Room I was provided had a kitchenette that was well stocked with necessary supplies to cook one's meals on days that one does not want to eat out or order in. Motel is also a nice 10 minute walk to Skaha Beach, so made for a very pleasant stay being able to take morning and evening walks along the water daily. Very conveniently located just a 5 minute drive to Walmart along with other shops and services. Overall, an excellent choice of accommodations while visiting Penticton and other Okanagan communities.

A very pleasant surprise. What a lovely place to stay in Penticton. The room had everything we needed in it, the fridge and microwave were a bonus. The owners were attentive and easy to communicate with. The pool looked lovely. Sadly, we didn't have bathing suits with us. Easy to get to the beach and the beach park, right across the street. Would definitely stay there again if in the area.
