About this property

Modern design with antique heirlooms

Nicely renovated suite with lots of charm including architectural details such as exposed wood beams. The suite feels very spacious with its open concept kitchen, living area and 8 ft high ceilings. It is bright and cheerful with lots of windows, white kitchen cabinets and tile work. Enjoy the heated concrete floors that run throughout the entire suite.

You will find a comfortable sectional couch in the living room as well as a cozy corner gas fireplace. The fabulous kitchen has top of the line stainless steel appliances, plenty of cupboard space and a huge island with 3 stools to have breakfast at or just sit and visit with whoever is cooking a meal. The kitchen has lots of lighting including nice under cabinet lights. Adjacent to the island there is also a table with seating for 4-6.

There are two bedrooms in the suite. The large size master bedroom has lots of natural light and a queen size bed. The pocket doors to the bedroom can be left open to make the suite feel larger or closed for privacy. The second bedroom has cute bunk beds with a single mattress on top and a double on bottom. The modern bathroom is nicely finished with two vessel sinks and lots of storage. There is a bathtub/shower combination.
There is an outside seating area with table and chairs. This suite is located in the East Village area, a residential area with lots of grocery stores, restaurants and coffee shops, craft breweries, italian delis. Just two blocks from an elementary school and close to the Pacific Coliseum, the race track, New Brighton Park beach and pool. Just a couple of blocks to public transportation with easy bus rides to Downtown Vancouver only 15-30 minutes away. By car or bicycle downtown is 10-20 minutes away. Also close to the highway creating easy access to the North Shore mountains as well as communities further east.
Boutique, fully equipped Pilates and Yoga studio on premises. By appointment.
Your host has lived in Vancouver for over 25 years and is active in the local arts and healing community and knowledgeable and helpful about pointing you in the right direction.

Great Stay in Vancouver

We loved our stay in East Vancouver. We were able to walk to the grocery store and many eateries nearby. Odette is such a lovely person and very welcoming. We enjoyed the space each morning with plenty of kitchen amenities to make breakfast. If we come back to Vancouver, we'll stay here again!

Gorgeous

We had such an excellent stay. It was very clean and welcoming. Very well stocked - bedding, towels and toiletries, pantry. Our teens loved the aesthetic with the Christmas lights, chocolates on the pillows and the books. It was warm with heated floors which was a nice touch in the basement. Tonnes of natural light. Easy access to public transit. Couldn’t have asked for more for our Swiftcouver stay!

It is apparent that Odette cares about comfort and ease of stay from motion detector lights guiding us to the door at night to plenty of pillows and towels. Beautifully remoddled, spacious, equiped and with cute outdoor space.

Vancouver tourists

We spent an incredible 4 days in Vancouver exploring the city and surrounding area. Our days were super busy and it was great to have a peaceful and relaxing home to come back to at the end of the day. Odette and Ron were great hosts and we loved everything about the suite, including the backyard patio garden.

Great location, welcoming hosts, comfortable stay

The apartment fitted our needs so well whilst visiting family last year we didn't even think about looking for alternatives. Comfortable, well equipped and handy for the excellent public transport network to Downtown and the North Shore which is important to us as we don't have a car. If travelling from YVR with lots of luggage I would recommend a taxi though. Odette and Ron are excellent hosts and always a pleasure to pass the time of day with when we meet.

WoW

We knew nothing about the area and we discovered a nice place, with plenty of space and all the equipments needed for our family of 4. Great wifi so we could use all our iPad/phones/Switch at the same time. It was easy to reach downtown by bus or the main highway from east village. Thanks Odette & Ron, we had a great time.

Another excellent visit to a home from home

Our third stay here which says it all really. The apartment is comfortable, well equipped in a quiet residential area yet convenient for shops and restaurants etc on Hastings Street three blocks away. If you don’t have a car then there’s ready access to a multitude of bus routes to access Downtown, the North Shore or Skytrain stations at Nanaimo or Renfrew. New Brighton and Hastings Parks are within a few minutes’ walking distance. Odette and Ron are great hosts and live above so are able to deal with any queries promptly.

Loved our stay!

Spent 4 nights with my mom and brother! They came to visit and watch me run the Vancouver Marathon! It was an awesome place to stay - to connect with family, to explore the city, to unwind and relax (and to recover)! Super clean, all the amenities you need, very quiet! Usually I don’t sleep well in new locations - but I slept so great all four nights! We managed to explore Vancouver quite a bit - we love to walk and managed to walk from here to Stanley park (avoiding the upper east side). Buses are super straight forward and get you right downtown (1 bus) and an UBER downtown is $14ish. Overall great place to stay - would stay again and would absolutely recommend!

Vancouver stay - June 15-19

My wife and I enjoyed a fantastic four-day visit to Vancouver with one of our college-aged children, We chose Odette and Ron's spot in a delightful neighborhood instead of a bland downtown condo and could not have been more pleased by that decision. Their house is wonderful, we slept great, we were able to cook a few of our own meals in their well-stocked kitchen, and the whole set-up give our first time in the city a home-like feel. The house and neighborhood are beautiful, a local supermarket, restaurants, and coffee shops are a five-minute walk, parking was a breeze, and connecting to any other part of the city was very simple. We definitely plan to be back in Vancouver while our daughter is in school, and we we will make ever attempt to book this location again. Odette and Ron gave great advice about local sights-to-see and were perfect hosts. Absolutely 5 stars!

Our go-to accommodation when paying our annual visit to see family in Vancouver which is the best recommendation we can give. Although only three of us stay in the apartment, there is plenty of room for a couple of visiting family and everything you need to provide them with dinner! The location is ideal for a number of bus routes to Downtown and over to the North Shore and an excellent choice of shops and cafés on Hastings Street are only three blocks away. Odette and Ron are excellent hosts and live above so are invariably on hand to answer any queries you may have. Saving has already started for our next visit!

Chez Odette et Ron

Très grand espace pour faire à manger avec tout ce qu’il faut. Les hôtes sont très gentils et Odette parle même français. 1 grande chambre avec beaucoup de rangement, et une autre avec un bureau. Tout était très bien mets les matelas sont vraiment dû pour être changés. Une chose qui a beaucoup agacé les fumeurs dans notre groupe C’est d’être obligé d’aller fumer dans la rue. On avait pourtant un espace extérieur derrière. Et même si les fumeurs sont très respectueux des lieux et ne laissent jamais traîner leur mégots, ça leur était défendu.

We spent 5 nights in this appartment in Vancouver It is in the private house of the owners, who are very nice and welcoming. Everything was as it should be and we felt "at home" right away. Reaching Downtown Vancouver as very easy by public transport. We strongly recommend this accomodation. Thanks again for having us!
