About this property

Safe and Quiet Stay by the Bay

Only a two minute walk from the water's edge finds you in this comfortable two bedroom destination. It has heritage features such as exposed brick while at the same time utilizes modern technology to make the techy person feel right at home. Three large flat screen 1080 tvs with access to hundreds of HD channels and unlimited high speed wifi invite those who like to stay in touch with the world, family and business while away from home.

Wake up in the morning and appreciate the large heated bathroom tile floor where each family member can have their shower/bath without running out of hot water thanks to our tankless on-demand water heater.

The full laundry affords the guests the real feel of home.

Kids love their time in the tide pools at the edge of the bay. Parents appreciate the fact they can catch a transit bus across the street or take the four minute walk to the mall to do their shopping.

History! There is a tourist destination just a two minute walk away from the door. It is the world famous Ross Bay Cemetery where pioneers of Western Canada are laid to rest. Regular guided tours are available to those interested in learning the history of Vancouver Island and the west coast of Canada.

Wonderful Stay!
All you could wish for from start to finish. Lots of room to spread out. Suite was larger than expected. Has all you need to do any cooking etc you’d want. Location was wonderful. Ocean is 4 houses away from your door. We walked and biked along Dallas Road many times. And Oak Bay is in the opposite direction. Beautiful! If you like walking, you could actually walk to a Victoria Harbour and everything downtown offers. Helen and Don were perfect hosts. Very friendly, helpful and always there whenever you need them. A definite 12 out of 10.

About the host

Hosted by Don and Helen ALLAN

Host profile image
Helen and I met when we were young teens when her parents came to our community to minister in our church. We went through high school together and were married when we were 20 years old. Here we are 55 years later still in love and privileged to host people from all over the world who want to enjoy the quiet, tranquil environment that the ground level suite in our 1912 built heritage home affords them. The suite renovation was a major project we undertook to provide us with a way of sharing our home with others in our golden years. We love people and are so pleased with the friendships we have established with those that choose to come our way.

Why they chose this property

Helen's parents purchased this property when they were looking for a retirement home back in the 1960s. Being so close to the water with the wonderful flat topography that daily walks were done with ease was an ideal spot for them to establish as their final landing place. In 1996 we purchased the home about four years after we had moved to Victoria from our place of growing up in Central Alberta. It was so nice to get into a more temperate climate that being adjacent to Ross Bay provides. In the summer the sea breeze keeps the highs of the day in the reasonable area while in the winter we seldom see snow and most afternoons are above freezing so seniors are out walking almost every day without the fear of slipping on icy sidewalks.

What makes this property unique

Our suite has only steps from ground level to enter through to the spacious living/dining room. It's only a 2 minute walk to the water's edge or the historic Ross Bay Cemetery. If you want to walk to the local shopping mall it's only a four minute walk the other way. The bus stop is right across the street and you hardly hear street traffic from the well insulated suite. This is a quiet, comfortable place to stay.
