Victoria vacation rentals

Erik was a gracious and generous host. We had a wonderful time on Galiano, and the best part was our stay at Erik's place. Would love to come back again.

We booked our stay very early since it was for our son’s Wedding. It had plenty of space for all the extended family to stay and gather before our activities for the day. The location was terrific for walking which our family loves to do. Loved that it was close to grocery stores and restaurants. We all enjoyed our stay! Thanks!

Seymour was responsive and check-in was a breeze. We felt right at home in the tidy house with spacious rooms. The labels around the house were helpful and unobtrusive. Great location for tourists, and nature lovers. Shopping, dining and a lovely coffeeshop near by. Comfortable beds and linens. This was definitely the best Air B&B I’ve stayed in and hope to stay here again each time I return to the island.

Huge home with all the needed amenities for our stay! Was very pleased to find a little closet of kids puzzles and books as well. My kids loved the gems and rocks that were collected around the home. Wish there was a little space where we could have found it what some of them were and where they were collected!!

Michelle's place was more than we could ask for. This place was pristine with all the amenities you could ask for. It was well situated for our needs. You can't ask for anything more. I would definitely stay there again if the occasion arose. It was exceptionally clean, the beds were comfortable, the kitchen well stocked, and the towels so soft. I recommend this home as it truly is a home away from home.

We had originally booked this home for May 2024 but we had to cancel last minute because of a passport mess-up. Josie was kind enough to credit us the stay and let us reschedule. Once we arrived, our jaws dropped. The photos don’t do justice how stunning this space is. I leapt around the first 24 hours because I was so thrilled to be there with my friends, celebrating life. The beds are a dream, the forest is enchanting and we could not get enough of the outdoor shower/sauna experience. We can’t wait to come back! Thank you!!!

Great place had everything we needed Terry was super helpful and friendly to communicate with regarding any questions we had. Over all would definitely recommend staying here!

Tugwell cottage was a great place for our book group to stay. It was comfortable, had a well equipped kitchen and plenty of beds for us (we were nine, and used every bed!). We went for walks in the neighbouring woods, and drove to another hike close by - there are lots of places to hike nearby. It's comfortable, cottagey, a good place to be away from the world with a group of people. It's full of First Nations art! Sabrina was very responsive when we had questions.

Annette was an amazing host. Her place was exactly like she had described and we felt right at home. We can’t wait to come back! We highly recommend!

We stayed almost 3 full weeks and it was great. We live the location - can walk to china town or down to the sea wall. Lots of great restaurants and we found a lot of gluten free options (celiac). The beds were comfie and we really enjoyed going to the jacuzzi and even the little gym a couple times. Great stay. Thanks Wayne!

Nice place. Great location Closet was small and furnishings were a bit out of scale and dated. Pillows were mis matched. Kitchen was clunky with no oven just a toaster oven. Noise from the garage door and cars coming and going was irritating. Kit drawer did not work, and drawer front was separated. Threshold to bath was splintered. Overall just needed some careful maintenance.

If I could give more stars I would. this was an incredible place to stay while in Victoria with my family! There's so much to do, it's centrally located, and COMES WITH A PARKING SPACE. Staying at the Gambling Den made us feel like locals for our long weekend in Victoria. I'd highly recommend to anyone visiting!

When we had to vacate our home for restoration purposes, we were lucky to find this sweet, cozy space to make our 'home' for almost a month. Bryan and Phyllis were prompt and attentive to all that we needed. On top of that, they were such a pleasure to meet. Simply good people. We couldn't have asked for better.

An oasis on Vancouver Island. Rick was a great host. Very accommodating and quick to respond when we had any questions. A beautiful home with beautiful surroundings.

We had an incredible stay at this stunning property perched on the ocean in Shirley, BC! The views of the Olympic Mountains from the premium hot tub were nothing short of breathtaking, especially when we spotted humpback whales at dusk on our first night—pure magic! The property itself at moments may feel more like a swanky international hotel with its backlit onyx kitchen and luxurious rain shower yet nestled in the rustic beauty of the coast. Our host, Robert, was incredibly kind and attentive, immediately offering his charging station for our car—a real relief. Highly recommend this place for an exceptional, premium coastal retreat close to Victoria!

stayed at 201 for our daughter's wedding. Everything from check in to check out was flawless. The amenities provided were above and beyond and exactly as described. Our hosts made our experience stress free and easy to manage. I would highly recommend staying at the 201.

This place was perfect for our family of four. we easily felt comfortable and at home. Clean and well maintained. Easy to get to. check-in and check out were easy. Felt very secure. The location is wonderful, incredibly walkable. Close to everything. Would not hesitate to stay again!

This wonderful, cute, clean and well supplied suite on the waterfront is one of the best Airbnbs I have stayed in. Lots of room, good beds, bedding, towels and well supplied. Nice furniture with a good tv. Games, and books supplied, great views over the marina and bay. Close to other towns and various museums, stores, and places to explore. We were initially nervous of being so close to the marina, and in between a couple of commercial buildings. As it turned out, the boats and (few) people added interest but no problems and the focus of the suite was out to the bay, across to the mountain, up and down the waterfront. (There is no beach or walking trail along the waterfront by the suite.) The reserved parking stall was a nice touch.

Magical!! Even more beautiful than the photos. The place was exceptionally clean and hosts very responsive. Communication excellent. I would love to come back here and just sit and enjoy the view some more.

Susanne and Keith are warm, communicative hosts, eager to make you feel at home. Susanne was there to greet us and take us on a tour. There were fresh flowers and treats to welcome us! The suite is absolutely wonderful- bright, immaculate and beautifully decorated with attention to every detail. The bed was extremely comfortable. Kitchen appliances were modern and cupboards well stocked with everything you need. The neighbourhood is very quiet with access to nearby parks, trails (Lochside a must!), shopping and restaurants. One of the very best Air BnB’s we have stayed in. We highly recommend Island Stay and would definitely stay here again. Thank you Susanne and Keith for warm hospitality!

A lovely place in a lovely neighbourhood. The place had everything we needed and more! The parking garage was really convenient - we especially appreciated that they had a luggage trolley to bring up our things. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony watching the boats go by, going to the nearby beach accesses, walking into Sidney and over all just enjoying a relaxing holiday. Cindy and Justin were great hosts - we hope to be back soon!

Sue was such an obliging host, she made special arrangement so I could utilize my time in the area to the maximum. I had a busy day in the area for other events and would have loved to have been able to enjoy the premises more than I was able. I would have no problem returning there possibly with better weather (it rained the whole time).

We couldn't be happier that we chose this place. Our hosts were fantastic and couldn't have been more kind and friendly. Anything we needed or even things we didn't think of, were there for us. We ended up having a prolonged stay, and they couldn't have been more welcoming or made it any easier than they did. The king size bed was wonderful, and I want to take the pillows home! The surroundings are beautiful, the birds, deer, and bunnies are awesome to see right out the door! We just can't thank them enough, we'll be back and highly recommend staying here. 5 Stars!!!

Great stay! Exactly as described, clean and a very COMFORTABLE bed. Excellent communication with host! Thanks for having me.
