Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Gulf Islands

We had a wonderful stay! We loved that there are trails accessible by foot from the cabin. (Just walk up the gravel road about 3 minutes.) We discovered that a great morning routine for us was to have coffee, walk through the forest, enjoy the morning light on the ocean, and head back to the cabin for breakfast. Peaceful and relaxing :) Henny is a great host. She shared a ton of wonderful information about places to go and yummy restaurants on the island. The cabin itself is cozy, charming, and quiet. The bed is comfortable, a high priority for me! We also appreciated that we could bring our dog and that she could be off-leash in the grassy area around the cabin.

Lovely house with amazing deck to relax and great views. Erik gave a passionate introduction at the check in that would make you want to stay for much longer. The perfect nature getaway!

Absolutely blown away by this Airbnb! From the moment we walked in, it was clear that every single detail had been thought of. It truly felt like a home away from home – but better! The kitchen was incredibly well-stocked with every utensil, pot, and pantry staple you could possibly need. The bathroom was equally impressive, with a generous supply of toiletries and fluffy towels. Beyond the essentials, there were thoughtful touches everywhere, from a selection of games and books to extra blankets for cozy evenings. It made our stay so incredibly comfortable and stress-free. We have a new puppy, and we felt super comfortable having her there, and she got spoiled just as much as us!! This isn't just an Airbnb; it's a perfectly curated experience. We can't recommend it enough and will definitely be back!

Priceless views and amazing architecture are showpieces of this magnificent home that combines coziness, elegance, comfort and rustic charm. We’ve stayed at many airbnbs, but this one is a new favorite. It’s an ideal getaway for the whole family; plus it’s close to interesting hikes and restaurants. The kitchen is well stocked for eating at home. We didn’t enjoy the taste of the well water, but bought drinking water at Tru Value. Carley was very responsive and helpful throughout. We would love to come back in the summer.

My fiancé and I had stayed here a few months ago, with our dog, and it was exactly like our last visit- absolutely wonderful! Ramona had the place sparkling it was so clean and made sure to have the place smelling great. She was always very responsive and made the whole visit stress free. The 3 of us absolutely LOVE it here and will definitely be coming back next time we visit the coast! Do not hesitate to book a stay here, as you will not be disappointed. The peaceful and cozy vibes make this a perfect getaway 😊

We had such a wonderful stay here! The views were absolutely stunning from every window. The interior was sparkling clean and so thoughtfully designed. The location was perfect, just minutes from Birch Bay State Park for peaceful beach walks. We saw so many great blue herons and bald eagles! Marie was such kind host and always very responsive. Truly such a luxurious experience.

Wonderful, clean place with everything we needed. The view of the ocean was great to wake up to. Definitely would stay here again.

My only comment is that is was very hard to find the place especially in the dark. Google maps took me to a neighbouring house and it was very confusing. That being said I didn’t fully ready the hosts instructions so she may have mentioned that! Wonderful place though, we would definitely stay here again.

The Valley View Suite could have been called “A little bit of paradise” with wonderful views, a clean spacious suite and an obliging hostess. We had a wonderful stay and would return again.

Amazing cute suite! the place was curated with such thought and detail. Good linens and amazing large shower. Very relaxing stay.

Great place for a couple nights in Port Angeles. The host was very friendly and chatted briefly when we were parking at the same time. The place was really clean and extremely nice and well reflected in the post. The only thing my husband and I discussed was the stairs to the 2nd floor was "sketchy", they were steeper than anticipated and very creaky while walking up or down, but there sturdy enough for us. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was HUGE with nice water pressure. Would definitely come back!

We had a wonderful stay at Jane’s ! The suite is close to the the Cowichan Valley Trail ( part of the Trans Canada Trail ) which we cycled for 2 days. Also close to town and restaurants and the famous totems of Duncan. Lots of lovely touches and a very comfortable bed . Would highly recommend Jane’s air bnb .

Two words gorgeous views!!! Looked forward to having my cup of coffee on Kelley & Kent’s patio every morning. A very peaceful location tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Ganges, but still less than five minute trip into town. Both Kelley & Kent were very welcoming and accommodating to our early check in. Their air bnb had all the amenities you could need to make you feel right at home. Beds were super comfy! I would HIGHLY recommend booking this accommodation, you won’t be disappointed! :) Enjoy!

Great host. Beautiful view and lovely gardens and wildlife. Great streaming choices. Extremely friendly and helpful

Harley’s place was pure magic. Perfectly situated and very well equipped, we felt right at home for our three-night stay in Port Renfrew. The views are even more breathtaking than the photos suggest, with tons of natural light spilling through the entire apartment. We were blown away by the wildlife sightings from the balcony and spent hours with the binoculars taking it all in. We would happily return to Harley’s property in the future.

Terry and Kerry are great host. Beautiful garden and property. My Almost adult daughter loved the swing my wife loved the garden and I loved it all. We got a bottle of wine and snack dinner one night. We sat at the little table and eat our dinner. We are from TX where you can’t sit outside for 2 hours and not get destroyed by mosquitoes . As a family we’ve stayed in 50plus Airbnb’s and this one is top 5 we will be back in September for college move in

My group (4 adults) had a fantastic stay at Wayne's apartment. The apartment was spacious, well equipped (women's hygiene products, bathrobes, etc.), and very centrally located. Wayne was also very helpful in fulfilling a few of our requests such as providing us with a fan and an early check in. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a comfortable, central place to stay in Victoria.

The Inn on the Harbor was a perfect weekend getaway spot. Super clean and comfortable with great water views. Check in was made really easy and Tracey gave great directions ahead of time. Downtown Blaine is very walkable from this spot. We will be back!

We very much enjoyed our stay here. Conveniently located and overlooking the water, the apartment was very well appointed, clean and very cozy. On a cold evening, we enjoyed warming our feet by the outside fireplace. We’d recommend this place to anyone wanting to spend some time in Port Renfrew.

The only complaint I have is the bed in the bedroom. Could not sleep on it very squeaky, wiggly, mattress very lumpy.. needs a foam mattress and new frame. It was so uncomfortable. Thank god the couch was comfortable. Hopefully he will replace the bed by the next time I stay.

Thank you very much. The host was very responsive with the text messages and very helpful.

Place was gorgeous, Iris was a sweet and responsive host. We will be back again 100%

This place is so clean and comfortable. The host is super helpful providing tipis and instructions. Nice area to walk around for food and shopping. Easy to get around taking trains too. We love it!!

We stayed here while attending a wedding at Semiahmoo Resort, and it was the perfect place to relax—just a short walk from the resort. The home was spacious, well-stocked, and spotless, with a stunning view. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back again someday.
