The unit was well stocked with kitchen necessities. It is very large, so lots of room for everybody, nice back yard as well.The only downside is that there are tenants in the basement level, and the unit is not well insulated against noise (from the tenants' perspective), so the one night that we came late, we unknowingly disturbed the tenants.

Family Vacation

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property in Colwood! It was the perfect place to relax and unwind after spending time exploring Victoria. The accommodations were clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. We especially loved visiting Hayley Castle and we were lucky enough to catch a Lavender Festival in the area. This was a great place to stay near Victoria.

Beautiful, clean roomy house in a great neighborhood. Kitchen is very well stocked with quality pots and pans and appliances. Everything that was needed for our group of 8 was accomodated. Check in and out were easy and the host was always available for communication. I highly recommend this VRBO.

Our stay here was lovely (5 adults and 2 kids). The house was very clean and well decorated. It felt very warm and inviting. Neighbourhood is nice too. Location is close to grocery/liquor stores (3 min drive) and Victoria downtown is about a 30 min drive away. Great choice for a larger group or family :)

Our family was very particular about location and appropriate accommodations for our group size (4 adults, 3 children) and we are so pleased by our choice for this stay! The home was clean, well appointed with everything we needed and we received good communication from the host.Though we spent our meals outside the home, the kitchen and patio are beautiful places to gather. This was a fantastic alternative to a hotel stay for a family or small group. I look forward to returning.

A perfect place to enjoy the island

We stayed with family in this beautiful brand new house. Everything was really comfortable, beautifuly decorated and clean. We loved the feeling of like home with everything conveniently available for us to use. It was not far from centre Victoria and we enjoyed the beach hangouts only five minutes from the home. Definitely a 5⭐️

Weekend in Victoria

This is a lovely property. Very clean, new, and great for a group. I would rent it again. The host may want to consider adding some safety features to the bathrooms as there are no bars or ways to be safe in the showers.

Great property with good location

My parents and their friends really enjoyed their two nights’ stay in the past weekend. They said the house is clean, spacious, and pretty. It has everything they needed and more. They also liked that it was so close to many sightseeing locations. They had a great union and asked me to pass on their appreciation. Thanks!
