Lovely, quiet location
The small area where the house is located is lovely, but the STUNNING yard belongs to these owners. The place is immaculate and gas everything short term renters could want. Owners are friendly and accommodating. The outdoor patio is relaxing, and the BBQ is a nice touch! All and all we'd give it 5 stars!! Cheers.

Gorgeous, bright, outstanding value
Exceeded expectations - hosts Nancy and Gil were friendly and thoughtful, the property is comfortable, clean, and bright with stunning views, we had everything we needed and then some. Enjoyed the back patio and walks around nearby parks. The information booklet led us to some excellent dining and walks/hikes we didn’t know about during previous trips to Victoria. Would definitely stay here again and hoping to have an opportunity to soon!

Fabulous rental
We loved staying here! It was clean and cozy comfortable. The bed was very comfortable. We had an issue with the tv but the owners went above and beyond to fix it.
We’ve used VRBO in Europe Hawaii and Canada and this rental really stood out. The neighborhood was safe and very pretty. Definitely would stay again.

Would definitely stay here again
This place was exactly what I needed. Nice, clean space with very comfortable couch and bed. The garden/patio was perfect place to sit out in the evening. Just enough space for a single traveler or couple.
The hosts were incredible. The first night their dogs were barking at an animal outside. They messaged me first thing in the morning to check whether or not I was disturbed and to apologize. When my plans changed last minute and I decided to leave 1 day early, I messaged them to let them know so they wouldn't worry why I wasn't there and if they wanted to get a head start on cleaning. Without me asking, they refunded my last night's stay which I certainly was not expecting.
I would definitely stay here again whenever I'm back in Victoria

Perfect stay in Victoria
We have been visiting Victoria for close to 40 years and honestly this is the best place we have ever stayed at. Nancy and Gil are wonderful hosts. They supplied us with a bicycle trail map which we used every day. They were there to answer any questions we had. The accommodation was beautiful and the location was perfect for cycling around the city. We only wished we had been able to stay longer. We will be back for sure.

Great hosts and property
The property is very spacious, clean, and has all the amenities that you’d expect. Full kitchen if you wish to cook yourself, including laundry and dryer machines if you want to wash some clothes. Neighbourhood is quiet and roughly 10 min drive to downtown. My wife and I took Uber to the city center and it ranged around $15-$20 per trip.
Nancy and Gil were awesome hosts, some of the best hosts I’ve ever had. Our stay was better than any hotel we could have booked. Would recommend anyone to stay here. 10/10 stay.
