The beach lower suite

IrmaRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Beautiful cozy place, spotlesly clean! Complete with amenities. This location is a 5 star! You can’t beat the sunrise and beautiful beach that’s just right in front of your door. Erin, the co host is a gem! She’s very responsive and she make sure I am comfortable and have everything I need during my stay. One of the best Air BnB I stayed for work. Highly recommended and will definitely come back. Thanks Erin! You made my stay even better. :)

The Oceanside Retreat

PäiviRating, 5 starstoday

This place was just beautiful! A private terrace with a sea view and mountains in the distance. We particularly enjoyed watching bald eagles in the nearby trees. The apartment was beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. It included everything we could have hoped for and more. Communication with Heather was seemless and the self check-in process was very easy and flexible - perfect for us as we arrived very late from a ferry. Would definetely stay here again!

Cozy 2Br Fully Equipped Basement Suite.

ClaudiaRating, 5 stars2 months ago

We felt right at home! The place is spacious, the beds a dream, rooms can be heated individually and Charity accommodated all of our needs for a <1yo baby. She was very thoughtful and even surprised us with some welcome goodies in the fridge and for the baby!!! The kitchen is well equipped and had lots of cooking essentials (sugar, salt, pepper, cooking spray, …). There is a walking path leading into town and loads of bald eagles and some seals/sea lions to look at in the water. Personal highlight: San Josef Bay (~2h drive from the accommodation). We would definitely recommend this place to anybody exploring the north of Vancouver Island!

A tranquil shoreline is depicted with gentle tidal patterns in the sand, reflecting the blue sky above. Soft clouds drift lazily while the calm water mirrors the serene atmosphere of the scene.

Barbie’s Beach Bungalow

GaryRating, 5 stars5 months ago

It's always great to stay at a property where the host obviously cares about the comfort of the guest. I can't think of one item that we needed but couldn't find. It was perfect for cooking meals, had a big yard for playing, and was super close to the beach. The beds and furniture were cozy for the rainy days and Barb and Erin went out of their way to put smiles on my daughters faces. We will definitely be back.

A spacious backyard is featured, showcasing a well-maintained lawn bordered by vibrant trees and shrubs. A patio set with red chairs invites outdoor dining, while potted plants add a touch of greenery. The clear blue sky complements the overall serene setting.
