A well appointed comfortable spot

Overall it was a satisfactory property. They obviously attempted to think of everything a group may need when visiting with some little surprise perks as well. Things like an ice bag, a reuseable grocery bag, several hygiene and first aid products. Could use another chair in the sitting area and maybe a small blind over the window in the door.

Perfect place to stay while visiting Victoria

Very clean and comfortable apartment in a very quiet neighborhood. The apartment was very well stocked and we enjoyed our stay. The bed was very comfortable. Parking in front of house. It is about a 20-minute drive to the harbor area of Victoria and 30-45 minute drive to Butchart Gardens. Don't miss the Gardens if you visit this area.

Victoria Visit

Our stay at this vacation home was overall pleasant with a few notable aspects. The house itself was clean and well-organized, which made settling in quite easy. The area was quiet and peaceful, perfect for relaxation. However, the beds were on the firmer side, which might not suit everyone's preferences for comfort. Additionally, the internet connection was somewhat unreliable, with spotty coverage at times. Overall a nice stay in Victoria !!

Nice self-contained unit that could easily sleep two couples, with comfortable beds, a roomy living room, very cute decor, lots of storage, and good kitchen facilities with lots of equipment that all worked perfectly. There is even a bidet (which we did not try). Providing a welcome basket of snacks was a nice touch. There were also teabags and a stocked Keurig coffeemaker. The neighborhood was quiet with easy street parking right in front.We knew the rest of the house was occupied by tenants, but we were surprised just how much noise we heard. Running water and equipment, voices, and sounds of cooking, kids running, and even playing fetch indoors with a dog that scrabbled across the floor, as if there were just a thin door separating our spaces. Maybe others won't be as sensitive to the noise as we were. And noise was not an issue in the bedrooms.The kitchen island allows knee space for just two people to sit at it on stools. We would have liked a small table and chairs - even folding ones - so that three of us could have eaten a meal together comfortably.The shower is an overhead rain shower. We could tell there was once a shower spray attachment too, but it was missing when we stayed, which makes showering difficult for anyone who does not want to get their hair wet. There were plenty of fluffy white towels.It's a very cute and comfortable place to stay and super clean. It was also easy to get from there to downtown Victoria, Butchart Gardens, and Hatley Castle.

Low supply or missing necessary items-no soap for bathroom sink, one garbage bag, minimal toilet paper. Got cold one evening. Heat consists of one space heater, and extra blankets, per our Host. Lower level unit, below ground level, would be quite chilly in winter. Tenant lives above, some noise. Quiet at night, though. Good parking, nice neighborhood. Would not stay again at that price point.

Quiet and comfortable

The unit is just as described. Comfy bed. Very quiet neighborhood, a bit off the beaten path. I don’t think you could walk to anything but close to everything in Langford by car. We were visiting my daughter so we didn’t do any cooking so can’t speak to the kitchen amenities.

Great location, peaceful, well stocked, comfortable, suite.

This rental was close to the area where we had a number of appointments but we also found quite a number of great parks, National Historic Sites, and many beautiful hiking trails within close proximity, which was an additional draw This property has many tall trees, and flowering bushes/plants which was welcoming as well as being lovely and very quiet. The bed in the main bedroom was very comfortable. We also appreciated the curtains over the blinds, as it made the room darker for better sleep. Maybe add a curtain over the entry glass door window for privacy. .

About the host

Hosted by Tiffany Agius

Host profile image
Hi, we're Tina and Tiffany—a mother and daughter hosting team. We love to travel, especially around Europe and the UK.

Hosting gives us a chance to meet people from all walks of life and offer a comfortable place to stay while they’re on their own adventures. We keep things clean, simple, and welcoming, and we’re always happy to help if you need anything—otherwise, we’ll give you your space to relax.
Thanks for choosing to stay with us!

Why they chose this property

We’re based in beautiful Colwood, just outside of Victoria—a quiet, scenic neighborhood known for its ocean views, nature trails, and relaxed pace of life. One of our favorite things about the area is how close we are to the beach—Esquimalt Lagoon is perfect for peaceful walks, birdwatching, or just watching the waves roll in.
The neighborhood has a lovely balance of natural beauty and convenience. You’ll find everything you need nearby—local shops, cozy cafés, and easy access to downtown Victoria if you’re in the mood to explore. We especially love the sunsets here—they’re truly something special.
Whether you’re looking to unwind, adventure, or a bit of both, Colwood is a great place to start.

What makes this property unique

What makes our place stand out is the feeling of comfort and calm the moment you walk in. We’ve put a lot of care into creating a clean, welcoming space that’s both stylish and homey—whether you’re here to relax, explore, or just need a good night’s sleep.
Guests often tell us they love the little touches—things like a well-stocked kitchen, cozy linens, and thoughtful extras that make the stay feel easy and enjoyable. The location is another big plus: tucked away in peaceful Colwood, close to the beach, nature, and just a short drive to downtown Victoria.
We genuinely care about your stay and do our best to make sure you feel right at home.
