About Rosemary & Seashells Hideaway
Gorgeous hideaway is the perfect retreat for two —a romantic getaway, a quiet stay for friends, or a small family (2 adults + 1 child under 2). It’s also ideal for visiting family on the island or locals in between housing, as monthly stays are welcomed.
The suite is part of our family home but fully private, with:
* King-size bed
* Love seat & bistro table (for dining or laptop use)
* Private bathroom & patio
Enjoy tea or meals on the outdoor patio (please note: it’s uncovered, so use depends on weather).
The space is recently renovated with a warm rustic charm. Our family lives here most of the time but occasionally rents the suite to visitors and locals when traveling for work or school.

About the host
Hosted by Rasha Gad
I, my 2 girls & our handsome 19 years old Siamese cat live in beautiful Vancouver, Canada.
If not in Vancouver, we are at my second home on Salt Spring Island. I feel lucky to have found this gem. Truly a piece of paradise.
In Vancouver, I have lived in Kitsilano for the past 20 years. It has always been a great place to live as a single adult and also as a parent with kids. It is a very convenient location for both living and visiting. No car needed as restaurants, cafes, small shops and much more are so close by and public transportation is around the corner. Also for kids, there are always many activities and parks close by. We live in one of those beautiful 100 years old Kitsilano Craftsman houses.
My daughters are, one 16 years old & the other 9 years old .. and I am an Expressive Arts Therapist, Interior Stylist, dance & movement enthusiast & a mom with many projects going on! We speak 3 languages at home English, Arabic & French so don't worry about communication if English is not your first language :)
We love people & also music! We play when we have the chance, so if you are a musician go ahead and play .. let us know if you want to jam! :)

Why they chose this property
Salt Spring Island is a Charming place. My house facing the ocean enjoys the magical north light all day long. Great place to star gaze, go for a walk or watch the moon shine on the ocean at night.
