Modern Luxury 2 Bedroom Suite Minutes to the Ocean!

The Space:

Beautiful, modern 2 bedroom (plus pull-out sofa) suite with 1 luxurious bathroom. Free parking for up to 2 cars next to the entrance. Huge patio and yard with a BBQ. Kitchen has everything you need to enjoy a fabulous stay. Bathroom has heated tile floors, opening window, and a tub/shower. If you need room for even more guests, I rent the upstairs suite as well. See my other listing! You can rent the entire house to accommodate up to 13 guests.

There is a pull-out couch and chair in the living/dining area and a queen-sized bed in each bedroom. There are 5 bar-stools at the kitchen island for dining and a highchair should you need one for your little.

Two big patios are available to you; one is uncovered and private for your use (with a BBQ), and the second is covered with a propane fire pit and couches and is shared with upstairs unit.

Guest Access:

Kitchen has everything you need for cooking/prepping meals. Coffee, tea, sugar and select spices are included. Propane BBQ on the patio! Orchard with apples, pears and plums (June/July) and fresh herbs and produce (seasonal) are for your use as well. Also strawberries and raspberries to pick in the yard (May-June) and blackberries all over the neighbourhood (July/August). *Please note: The suite does not have a dishwasher.

Netflix and wireless high speed internet included.

Large patio has a dining table with four chairs and umbrella as well as a propane BBQ. There are also lawn chairs and a picnic table for soaking up the sun in the yard :-) Covered patio has couches and a propane fire pit (shared with upstairs unit).

The yard is shared with the upstairs suite and the laundry room is shared as well (only available for stays of 5 days or longer). Covered patio with fire pit is also available for your use, but is shared with the upstairs guests. Please note: This property is located next to the small Pat Bay Highway, so you may hear moderate road noise in the yard during peak traffic times of day. As this is a basement suite you will also hear some noise from the upstairs guests if it is rented during your stay.

Interaction with Guests:

I like to leave my guests in peace, but am available at any time should you need me! Happy to accommodate you in any way I can!

House Rules:

Checkin is 4pm, checkout is 10am. This is a non-smoking property, including the yard. NO EXCEPTIONS! $50 fine for smoking on the property. There are guests in the suite upstairs at various times, so please respect that the property is shared. Be aware of noise, especially at night and in the morning. There is a $200 fine for noise complaints or if the police are called to the house. Laundry is only available for stays of 5 days or longer. Pets are allowed with prior approval first and a one-time $50 pet fee.

Wish we had longer than a 17 hours stay!
It was our last night and we had an early flight. It is very convenient to the airport. Because of the rain we did not have an opportunity to use the outside dining or fire pit area. KItchen was well appointed....even had spices.

Wonderful family getaway
We loved this property. This is our second time staying here and we loved it both times. This time we stayed in the basement 2-bedroom suite. The bathroom is small and could be an issue sharing with 4 people as you will need to take turns. The yard is great. The kids love being able to run around. The BBQ worked great with the little patio seating by the entrance. The property location is great as it’s right off the highway. The backyard is loud, as it backs onto the highway but you can not hear any of that noise when you are inside the suite. We stayed here as a family of 4 (2 elementary school-age kids).

Wonderful property in great location
The property had everything we needed for our stay. We loved the location so close to the ocean, easy walking distance with pedestrian overpass to cross the highway. Nice to be out of the city yet just a short trip in to Victoria. Shannon was a delight to deal with. We would definitely recommend this property!

Great place and even better hosts.
Host Shannon and her husband Jeff were fabulous hosts.. The suite was extremely clean and the house is set on a huge backyard which was great for our dog and back yard grilling. There are two spacious bedrooms at either end of the suite allowing for privacy. We would definitely come back.

This is a great location, equipped with all your needs, and an attentive landlord. Noise from the nearby highway did not bother us at all and the neighbourhood was close to hikes and walking paths.

Loved the apartment! It was in a nice central location—very close to Sidney and not far from Victoria. Only drawback was the traffic noise outside, but inside you did not hear it.

Perfect for our needs!
This lower level suite was perfect for our needs. The owner was very accommodating and let us stay a bit later as we were coordinating our child's move-in to University. Our dog loved the back yard also, and there was a perfect space for us to run and throw the ball. We appreciated the selection of wines and coffee to grind in the morning (although some Coffeemate would be a great add-on!) We will definitely book again.

Beautiful Property, Great Hostess
This property was better than I expected just as the pictures represent, although I didn't pay enough attention to where it was located, (next to the main highway in Victoria, which made for a huge constant traffic noise), and made it difficult to sleep even with the windows all closed (which I never do at home). I also wasn't told that it was underneath another rental, that quite frankly became a huge problem. When I arrived, there were 11 people in the courtyard, having a picnic/barbecue so there was no privacy at all as I expected after a very long day of travel. Older children were running around in front of my window, which felt intrusive, and no one was supervising at all. They appropriated all the chairs outside in front (while I was unpacking) for themselves and carried them off to another area, and it was very awkward to ask for them back so I too, could enjoy the outdoors. Younger children were constantly running back and forth across the floor (sounded like a herd of elephants) until I called the hostess about 9pm who was kind but insisted she posted that the property was by a highway when I brought up that I needed some rest. She texted or called them after she told me that they would be leaving the next morning, and the noise subsided until the next morning at 6am (I had planned to sleep in) and it was louder and worse than the night before. I got up, got dressed and got out of there early, and I didn't come home until late the next evening and it was an instant replay of the night before with different guests. So I didn't get much sleep for the money I paid. Shannon was kind and understanding, but there was really no other option for me since I paid in advance and everything was full because of Canada Day. I never thought to ask if it was a multiple family dwelling, so I learned to ask alot more questions. Plus I had the impression it was within walking distance to the water, and you have to drive there. The exit it is off of requires a roundabout way back to the highway, so nothing is really close, or within walking distance.
