About this property
Panoramic Views Sub Penthouse Downtown w Parking
Although we only have two reviews, please do not let that deter you from booking our property. Our guests thus far have booked through "word of mouth" and not through VRBO. Only guests who book through VRBO are allowed to write a review, so, although we've been fully booked since Dec. 2018, we haven't received any reviews because our guests haven't booked through this site. Our property is truly a gem, with the most amazing views in Victoria, and equipped with the best amenities throughout!
NOTE: Please Be Sure to Set the Regional Rate Settings at the Top of Your Screen to Your Local Currency. VRBO Automatically Defaults to USD Funds. Please Note: You Will Still Be Charged in the Owner's Canadian (CAD) Currency. Thank You!

Thank you Rod and Melissa!! Your property is breathtaking. The place itself was immaculate. The view did not disappoint!! Watching the Sea planes and cruise ships coming in. Loved how close downtown was. Thanks for even having a stroller bag that we could use to go out and purchase groceries, which was two blocks away and other items.
I would recommend this place to anyone. Rod was very welcoming. This place had everything that we could have used to cook with, including spices etc… comfortable beds and places to sit. Our husbands love the recliners!
So nice to have fruit, bread, and milk at the place, as a welcome gift.
Thanks for working with us in checking out later, no stress for us for packing everything back up.
We would definitely come back.

Although the condo itself was lovely, we were here in August and the condo can get quite warm on hot sunny days. AC would be a huge benefit here but there’s nothing the owners can do but supply fans - which they did. The evenings can cool off a bit but leaving the windows open at night let’s in all the street noise which happens at all hours of the night. You can’t beat how central this location is though, and that harbour view is wonderful. The balcony is tiny but again, the owners furnished it in a way to benefit what space there is. The kitchen was equipped well. The condo also comes with two amenities we used: one being a place to lock up our bikes and secondly, a nice space on the second floor if you feel like doing some entertaining and bbqing.
My husband and I spent five weeks in this apartment to escape the snow of Eastern Canada. The location of the apartment is perfect for two seniors without a car. All of the necessary services are easy walks away and all of the buses needed to get to any part of the city stop within two blocks of the apartment. A bonus is that a small bakery (Fol Epi) is located on the ground floor of the apartment building; we bought fresh croissants and pains aux chocolat there almost every morning. The apartment is exactly as pictured and the wall of windows look out over the Inner Harbour, the "Blue" Bridge and across to Esquimalt. We really enjoyed watching city life during the day and the lights of the city after dark. The apartment was well-stocked for an extended stay and we really appreciated the dishwasher and in-apartment washer and dryer. The property managers were very friendly, helpful and responsive and worked with us to facilitate a late arrival and very early departure. We highly recommend this apartment for anyone looking for a comfortable and conveniently located apartment with a terrific city view.
