Quiet and clean air

We had a wonderful time. The privacy was a nice change from living in the city. The house is full of beautiful soaps and delicious coffee and teas. The kids love the google mini!

Lovely house overlooking the harbour

We really enjoyed our stay here - so many fun activities for the kids to do, including board games, and a short drive to great lakes for families (Katherine and Ruby). The house was really clean and cosy, and the seats on the balcony were so comfy, with lovely views over the harbour below. Ileana was very responsive, with tips on what to do, and where to go and eat out in the area. We'd highly recommend this house, and hope we can return one day soon.

Peaceful sanctuary at Garden Bay!

We really enjoyed our experience staying at this lovely, bright, peaceful sanctuary in Garden Bay on the Sunshine Coast! The house is bright with lots of large windows and a beautiful deck facing the harbour which we spent alot of time on! The kitchen is very well equipped with high end appliances and everything we needed! The house is situated at Garden Bay which is a perfect home base to explore the beautiful Pender Harbour area. Each day we hiked, swam, kayaked or explored the area - several nice bakeries, coffee shops and restaurants in the surrounding area and access to wonderful hikes and lakes for swimming! The best part was the peace and quiet at this beautiful property - the hosts were wonderful and helpful and answered all of our questions in a timely manner! Thank you so much for a great vacation!

About the host

Hosted by Ileana & Murray

We're a family of four based in Vancouver, BC and have recently purchased this property as our retreat home on the Sunshine Coast. We manage and operate it as a rental property for when we're not around and take great pride in providing our guests with a clean, comfortable and well-equipped space to relax, play and enjoy all that Pender Harbour has to offer.

Why they chose this property

Pender Harbour has captivated our family since we initially discovered the area several years ago, and has something for both the adventurer spirit or those looking to relax and escape the hustle of everyday life. From the many freshwater lakes for swimming, paddling, and family fun to the sheltered bay to view sea lions, eagles and even orcas - it is a magical spot where you can pick your favourite passion and go exploring.
