EXCITING NEW CHANGES COMING TO PACIFIC BEACH! Pacific Beach Navy Getaways Recreation Destination, formerly Pacific Beach Resort & Recreation Center and fondly referred to as “Pac Beach” by its regulars, is entering a new and exciting era in recreational lodging. Pacific Beach has two very distinctive seasons; off-peak season, October through March, and peak season, April through September. Over the last few years, we have been unable to maintain the highest levels of program offerings in the offpeak season. We have been listening to our guests over the years and have developed a comprehensive plan to increase services and enhance guest accommodations. Phase 1 was completed in February 2016 by fully renovating 10 suites and three cottages. You can check out the Construction Photo Gallery and final product at pacbeach. navylifepnw.com under the Galleries section. The feedback was great, but we know there was more to be done.
14 HOUSING, LODGING & NAVY GETAWAYS
Phase 2 began December 1, 2016 with another large renovation project. We are expanding the size of our hotel room showers and replacing
all flooring through the facility. At the same time, we are converting the dining room area into a Market and Café. The market will offer many grocery items, both fresh and frozen, made-to-order hot and cold food, daily specials for dining in or to-go, as well as a full array of beverage selections and other recreation traveler's essentials. The gift shop and espresso services will be relocated to the Market and Café. A new recreation center will be transformed in its place. The recreation center will offer recreation equipment, craft activities, and off-site trips. To ensure you get the most out of your visit, we have hired a fulltime recreation programmer, who will be on hand to assist guests and facilitate many of our new programs. We are very excited about our future and hope to see you all soon. Kerri Billings, Pacific Beach Manager (360) 276-4460
