mary b. Apr 28, 2024 03:36:38 AM

Summary: We had a lovely time here. Sally was super easy to communicate with and we had everything we needed! The neighborhood is very lovely and great for families. Victoria won us over!

Sharon G. Apr 28, 2024 03:11:38 AM

Summary: Great location, could walk to the ocean and see snow capped mountains. The house was well kept with lots of character, very comfortable for the 4 of us. Sally responded very quickly to all communication. Would stay again.

JoAnn M. Mar 30, 2024 03:21:24 AM

Summary: Enjoyed this lovely home and the surrounding area. Great coffee shops and wonderful walks.

jennifer a. Aug 6, 2023 03:13:11 AM

Summary: We had a wonderful week’s vacation with our kids and their spouses, at Sally and Stu’s home. We enjoyed the hot hot tub and playing ping pong in the beautiful back yard. The dining room table was great for games at night and the kitchen had everything we needed for cooking at home. The living room had plenty of comfy seating for everyone and we were happy to use the gas fireplace one chilly morning. We road bikes to downtown Victoria for some sightseeing, played golf and tennis nearby, walked to downtown Oak Bay for trivia night at the Penny Farthing and took a picnic dinner to a concert at Willows Beach. It really was a perfect week!

Summary: Sally and Stu were the perfect hosts. Communication started well before our trip and we were sent an "owner's manual" that included everything from how to operate the hot tub to the best restaurants in the area. When we walked in, we immediately felt at home. Some houses feel sterile, with just the basics, but here you are invited into their home, with books, knick-knacks and treasures to see all around. The back porch and garden were gorgeous and we had a few great days of weather when we were able to sit outside and just enjoy! The neighborhood was perfect for walking and we very much enjoyed the cafe just around the corner and the short walk to the beach. Also a big plus was the 10 minute drive to the harbor and downtown for all of our exploring! Even when things went wrong, the owners were responsive and sent people to try to fix things almost immediately! We definitely recommend this property for longer stays and for families with older/grown children. We stayed for 20 days/19 nights (my husband and me, my mother and also our oldest daughter for a week) when visiting my younger daughter as she graduated with her Master's from UVic.

Summary: Great comfortable house, fireplace and hot tub made it perfect for hanging out on rainy winter days. Nice walkable neighborhood. Great communication with hosts.

Holly B. Dec 12, 2022 06:41:19 PM

Summary: We love houses from 1910 - 1920 so this was perfect for us. It does have its quirks and its creaks (the floor in the master bedroom, especially) and it has the personality of its owners so if you're looking for a sterile rental experience, this wouldn't be it. But the owners are very hospitable and we found the space to be warm and inviting. We particularly loved hanging out at the kitchen island and in the hot tub.

Connor S. Oct 2, 2022 12:23:59 AM

Summary: Very quaint. Lovely neighborhood, especially in the Fall. No complaints, but the hardwood floors do creak a little, which I think is a good thing to know because the house was built in 1914. I found that to be part of the charm. Overall, much better experience than staying in downtown Victoria, and this is only a 20 minute run or 40 minute walk or 10 minute drive from the Harbor.
