Exactly as advertised. Very clean, well stocked with excellent spa quality products. Complementary slippers were a bonus.The covered patio was very comfortable despite the weather.We really enjoyed our stay!
Beautiful space with everything you need for a stay. Great shower and everything was so clean. Kitchen area is tiny, however there’s a full size fridge, microwave and full set of utensils- no tradition oven but who’s cooking anyway. Comfy couch and excellent bed and a TV that’s WiFi compatible.Great little private patio out side the suite that has a propane fire pit and to the side of the suite there’s a bbq should you want to stay in. This place would be great for a romantic getaway or a business stay. Highly recommend.
Room was wonderful. Nice little outdoor sitting area to watch the hummingbirds. Bed was comphy. Could have used and actual coffee maker tho. Clean, and very modern vibe. Thank you!
This rental fit the bill for my wife and me. Cozy, clean, and well appointed. The only knock is that there is a significant staircase to the lower-level access to the unit. This fact should be noted somewhere in the description of the property as this could be a problem for those with limited mobility. The rental is in a nice area, close to shopping. Excellent access to Victoria attractions.
The studio unit was nicely decorated with essential amenities. The outdoor patio and fire pit was very enjoyable each morning and evening. We saw deer and hummingbirds. The beautiful flowers in the potted plants were a nice touch. The French Press coffee maker took awhile to get used to, but made flavorful coffee.
Private, clean, excellent location. Perfect for my purposes. I felt like I had an oasis for resting and relaxing at the end of my day. I would definitely book again. Highly recommend!
The suite was down a flight of stairs at the back of the house. It was clean, well appointed and comfortable. There was a nice outside area with a BBQ, and a sitting area. There was some noise from walking upstairs, but it was not a major issue. Overall it was a good experience.

The suite was furnished nicely and the bed was very comfortable. Every detail was thought of, from extra blankets and toiletries, to extra sandals to wear around the suite because you forgot to pack slippers. The suite was very quiet and in a quiet neighbourhood. Great communication from the owners, too. I would absolutely stay here again and would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in the Langford area.
Beautiful home and very clean. Hosts responded quick and answered any questions. Close to Victoria. Nice neighborhood. Overall really enjoyed our stay.
The suite was clean, spacious and well equipped. The owners were easy to contact.The back yard and patio garden are beautiful. We enjoyed the blooming rose bush right outside the window. Would go again in a minute!

Our flight was delayed 3 times and we arrived around midnight instead of 3pm but we reached out and got almost instant response from the owner. When we got in everything was perfect! They left the light on for us and the heat was perfect on a cold night. The attention to detail in this suite is incredible. Everything you need and all the things you might have forgotten were there. Super impressed and would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a stay in this area. Bed is super comfortable also. Thank you for a great week.

Excellent home but not cat friendly
Home was cozy, well decorated and comfortable.I would not recommend staying with a cat. The rental is not well suited to it.
The unit was complete with all we needed and quiet.
The unit was furnished well with everything we needed and clean. It was quiet and in a quiet neighborhood.
My wife and I are capable of managing the stairs getting down to the unit but I believe there should be a a warning for those who may require handicap accessibility. For us, it was fine. We enjoyed our stay.
Whole experience was outstanding. Highly recommend for ease of stay in Victoria. Great location and access to all of our events. It was in a very safe neighborhood. The hosts were very accessible and always responded well to any questions we had. At the same time they were never intrusive. Apartment was always warm and quiet.
This was the perfect base for a half business / half pleasure visit to the Victoria region. The suite was perfectly appointed with everything I needed to prepare most of my meals and was so clean and comfortable. I really appreciated having my senior dog with me, and the walkability of the neighborhood.
