About this property

A Private Villa Retreat to Slow Down & Feel at Home

Welcome to La Maison Villa.

We're Eric and Kelly, a husband-and-wife team, and we're delighted to welcome guests into the home we've lovingly created and cared for over the years.

La Maison Villa isn't simply a vacation rental—it's our private home, thoughtfully designed for slowing down, reconnecting, and enjoying life's simple pleasures. Whether you're visiting Vancouver or simply looking for a peaceful escape, we hope you'll feel completely at ease and experience the warmth and hospitality that make our home so special.

Here, life slows to a gentler pace. Wake to birds singing with a cup of coffee on the terrace, spend afternoons by the slate swimming pool, prepare meals together in the kitchen, enjoy long dinners beneath the trees, bake pizzas in the wood-fired oven, or curl up with a good book overlooking the gardens.

Every season brings a different experience. Summer invites long afternoons outdoors and evenings spent dining under the stars, while cooler days call for cozy fires, slower mornings, and quiet moments inside the villa. No matter when you visit, our hope is that you'll leave feeling rested, refreshed, and truly at home.

Although we live in our own private residence connected to the villa, your stay is entirely your own. You'll enjoy exclusive use of the villa's living spaces, bedrooms, gardens, and outdoor amenities while we remain in our separate residence. Aside from sharing the front entrance gate, our spaces are completely separate, allowing you to enjoy the property with privacy throughout your stay. We're always available should you need anything, but otherwise we simply let you enjoy the villa as if it were your own.

| What You'll Love |

• Private gated estate just minutes from Vancouver International Airport
• Slate swimming pool surrounded by mature gardens
• Wood-fired pizza oven for memorable evenings together
• Indoor and outdoor fireplaces for cozy evenings year-round
• Beautiful kitchen perfect for preparing meals together
• Seamless indoor-outdoor living spaces for dining, lounging, and unwinding
• Peaceful gardens filled with birds and seasonal wildlife

| Your Stay |

The villa comfortably accommodates up to six guests across three beautifully appointed bedrooms with premium beds and hotel-quality linens.

The spacious Super King Suite features a cozy fireplace sitting area and private garden terrace, while the King and Queen Suites each offer their own private entrances and outdoor seating areas just steps from the pool.

If you're travelling with children or have a larger family group, please reach out before booking. Whenever possible, we'll do our best to accommodate your needs while ensuring everyone enjoys a comfortable stay.

| A Home Surrounded by Nature |

One of our favourite things about La Maison Villa is its connection to nature. Surrounded by mature gardens, towering trees, and lush greenery, the property welcomes birds, butterflies, and seasonal wildlife throughout the year. Like many homes immersed in nature, you may occasionally notice small garden visitors while enjoying the outdoors—simply part of the peaceful environment that makes the villa so special.

| A Little Note About Our Home |

As lifelong dog lovers, we're also proud parents to six friendly Chihuahuas who are a cherished part of our family. They may occasionally say hello during your arrival or departure, though interactions are always completely optional.

If you have allergies, are uncomfortable around dogs, or prefer accommodations without pets on the property, we simply want you to have this information before booking so you can choose the stay that's right for you.

Whether you're planning a quiet getaway, reconnecting with family, or simply taking time to slow down, we hope La Maison Villa will be a place where lasting memories are made and you'll leave feeling refreshed, rested, and truly at home.

We look forward to welcoming you to La Maison Villa and sharing our home with you.

Eric & Kelly

Thank you so much for your kind review! It was truly a pleasure hosting Pilar’s family. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay and found our property to be even more beautiful in person. It’s wonderful to know that the location, amenities, and spacious rooms made your visit comfortable and enjoyable. Pilar and her family were incredibly respectful and treated our home with the utmost care. Communication was smooth and easy throughout their stay, and they even took the time to clean up to its original state before leaving. They also walked us through what items were left behind for our disposal, which was very helpful for us as it allows us to prepare our house quickly for the next guests. We highly recommend Pilar and her family to any host and would gladly welcome them back anytime. Thank you for being such wonderful guests, and we look forward to your next visit to Vancouver!

A Slice of Paradise Meets Unmatched Hospitality

I truthfully don't know where to start.... From start to finish, this was the most incredible and unforgettable experience which has been 35 years in the making. The pictures just don't do the beauty of this place justice, most places I have stayed did not come close to expectations whereas this Villa exceeded expectations in every way possible. Eric & Kelly are two of the most genuine human beings I have met and catered to our every need from start to finish. This was a bucket list trip for my mother and they made it memorable with their service and the true beauty of their home. I would recommend this as a destination itself within the beauty of Vancouver and I would not stay any place else when I return. Thank you again for the incredible memories and for allowing us to stay in your BEAUTIFUL and WELCOMiNG slice of paradise!

Thank you so much, Josh, for your truly heartwarming review! We’re beyond grateful for your kind words and thrilled that your stay with us was such a memorable experience for both you and your mother. Hosting you both was an absolute pleasure, and we feel lucky to have had the chance to make your mother’s bucket-list trip special. Josh and Dee were truly 5-star guests—the most wonderful and respectful any host could ask for. They took great care of our space, and at check-out, the house was left very clean and tidy—even the beds were properly made. Josh, we’re also so happy to hear that our villa exceeded your expectations, and that you found it to be a comfortable and welcoming slice of paradise. It means the world to us. Thank you again for choosing our home as your home away from home. We’re always here to welcome you back whenever your travels bring you to Vancouver again!

Wonderful Experience

Kelly and Eric are truly wonderful hosts! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the beauty of their home, which provided the perfect backdrop for our stay. Our experience was nothing short of exceptional, and we couldn’t have asked for better hosts. Each morning, we were greeted by the serene view of the pool, which made waking up feel like a little slice of paradise. The ambiance was so inviting that we often found ourselves lingering over breakfast, soaking in the tranquility of our surroundings. One of the highlights of our visit was undoubtedly meeting their adorable five puppies! Their playful energy and affectionate nature added an extra layer of joy to our stay, making it all the more memorable. Kelly and Eric were incredibly communicative throughout our time there, always quick to respond to any questions we had and eager to ensure we were comfortable. Their kindness and attentiveness made us feel genuinely cared for, and we truly felt like royalty in their beautiful space. We cannot recommend them highly enough! This experience has left us with wonderful memories, and we hope to return soon. Thank you, Kelly and Eric, for your hospitality!

Hidden Gem

Fourteen members of my family travelled to Vancouver to visit other family in early August. We were 7 adults and 7 young children and we wanted a large home centrally located with a pool and yard. Well this property ticked all the boxes and more!! Once we entered the gates, we were greeted by the most gorgeous stone home that could easily have been in a movie. We couldn’t wait to see inside and were not disappointed! The kitchen was a chef’s dream and one we all wished we had in our homes! The bedrooms were equally amazing with beautiful soaker tubs. The large pool and the beautifully landscaped grounds provided both the adults and children so much outside enjoyment. There was even a separate guest house which was equally lovely. We were extremely comfortable here for our 3 nights and would stay there again and also highly recommend it for a large group such as ours or a smaller one too. The only thing I should note is that the lovely owners Kelly and Eric are on property but in a separate suite . I was a bit taken aback when we found this out at check in but they assured us we would only see them if we needed something. Well that was absolutely true but they were so sweet to let our little girls play with their adorable chihuahuas. I’m pretty sure if you asked those girls what their favourite part of the trip was, they would say the puppies! It was really hard for us to leave this absolute paradise!!

It’s important to us that our guests feel comfortable and have privacy, and we’re glad we could be available at any time without being intrusive.

About the host

Hosted by Eric Sit

Host profile image
We're Eric and Kelly, a husband-and-wife team born and raised in Vancouver BC, Canada. La Maison Villa is our home, and welcoming guests into it has become one of the most rewarding things we do. We love creating beautiful spaces, sharing genuine hospitality, and helping our guests experience a slower pace while enjoying one of our favourite corners of the city. As lifelong dog lovers, we're also proud parents to six friendly Chihuahuas who are a cherished part of our family.

Why they chose this property

We love that this neighbourhood offers the best of both worlds. Surrounded by mature trees and nature, it feels peaceful and tucked away while remaining just 10 minutes from Vancouver International Airport (YVR), 20 minutes from Downtown Vancouver, and close to wonderful restaurants, cafés, shopping, and everyday conveniences. It's a quiet little oasis that still keeps you connected to everything the city has to offer.

What makes this property unique

Unlike many vacation rentals, La Maison Villa is our personal home—thoughtfully designed, carefully maintained, and personally hosted by us. Every stay is prepared with the same care we'd offer friends and family. The villa's boutique-inspired layout, with three private-entry suites and beautifully shared outdoor spaces, creates a unique balance of privacy, comfort, and connection that's difficult to find elsewhere in Vancouver.
