Menzies Manor #5 Penthouse-Charming Penthouse James Bay, Steps to the Ocean
About this apartment rental
Location, Location, Location! Welcome to Seaside living! Menzies Manor is located just steps from the Ocean in the historic and charming neighbourhood of James Bay, close to all amenities like grocery stores, post office, restaurants and cafes and minutes away from the heart of downtown Victoria. Menzies offers beautiful suites that allow for a complete restful holiday. After a full day of walking around our beautiful city, enjoy the comforts of home. Our spectacular 3rd floor Penthouse Suite boasts 16" cathedral ceilings, surrounded by windows offering glimpses of the sea. Truly a home away from home with quaint and comfortable furnishings, HDTV and relaxing patio off the master bed room to enjoy the setting sun and ocean breezes. There are 2 bedrooms both with ensuite bathrooms. The Master bathroom features a spa like experience with separate soaker tub and stand alone shower. In the 2nd ensuite bathroom you will find your own washer/dryer. The impressive gourmet kitchen comes stocked with all the essentials to get you started. Just off the kitchen, you will find a relaxing patio terrace. Just outside the front door, is Victoria's famous Dallas Road, where you can stroll for miles along the Salish Sea. Approximately 1640 Sq. ft. Important Notes: You will receive the important check-in information email and text message with the check-in instructions 7 days before arrival. Check-in starts at 4 pm P.S.T. Parking is free but there is limited space in the parking area at the back of the house. Larger vehicles may not fit. Please check with us before booking to be sure we can accommodate your vehicle. This unit offers bicycle storage in a private locker room. If you plan to bring your bicycle(s) along, please reach out to Victoria Prime to discuss before booking. Victoria is the busy, vibrant and growing capital of British Columbia. Just as in many cities in BC, Canada and likely other countries in the world, we are experiencing a shortage of housing. In dealing with this situation there are several new buildings being constructed in the downtown core, and elsewhere. We recognize that there could be some daytime noise but are confident that it will not interfere with your time in beautiful Victoria. Business Licence #00038604 GST #76869 1537 RT0001

This was a great spot to use as home base. We walked everywhere. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked.
There were comfy places to sit at the end of the day and a nice outside eating area with a bit of a water view.

Great location, 20 minute walk to downtown, 5 minutes to a grocery store and 2 minutes to the beach. The penthouse at Menzies Manor is as advertised, a 5 star stay. I would go back in a heartbeat.

We stayed for 3 nights, the place was exactly as described and very clean. From the deck you can see the Ocean and it is only 1 block to walk down and play on the shore and watch the cruise ships come in. The team was very responsive and easy to communicate with. We were walking distance to Beacon hill park, downtown and many other wonderful areas. We would definitely stay again.

Great location near the ocean and Beacon Hill. Groceries are a short walk up the street.

This was a perfect location for us. We love the Victoria food and ocean location. Clean and comfortable accommodation.

Very comfortable and homey; quiet; spacious and had everything we could possibly need (except tissue); within walking distance to everything. Parking was tricky but they do warn you about it. Maybe adding a suggestion to pull forward as far as you can would help with the parking. We had an issue with our code and followed the direction to text the number. After 20 minutes of waiting, I finally phoned and got immediate assistance. Maybe phoning should be the first step when it involves a situation that is time sensitive.

Condo was immaculately clean and well furnished. Just 1 block from the ocean and a short walk to inner harbor. Coffee shops and groceries a short walk away. My husband and son are both avid cooks and were pleased with the well equipped kitchen. Quiet neighborhood to escape the hustle and bustle of downtown.

Only steps from the ocean, a 15 minute walk to downtown and a 5 minute walk to groceries, the location could not have been more ideal.
PH 5 was well equipped with everything we needed and was extremely clean and comfortable.
The pictures are exactly as advertised. Our host contact responded really quickly to our questions.
We would absolutely rent this location again!

Great potential/disappointing experience
Sign posted for possibility of toilet overflow. Nothing posted for problem with shower which also overflows… When you have a hair full of soap and can’t see what’s going on.
Rather expensive experience.

Reunited
After not seeing our Canadian daughter and her family for 2.5 years due to Covid restrictions from US to Canada, we were ecstatic. We loved the location, we had grandchildren spend the night and family over for dinner. The condo felt homey and we were a family again.

We’ve been to Victoria numerous times but never stayed in James Bay. What a discovery! Steps away from the beautiful views and welcoming paths along Holland Point and within walking distance of the harbor, Menzies Manor’s penthouse is elegantly appointed, with a well-stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. We’ll be back!

We have visited family many times on Vancouver Island but this was the first time we stayed in Victoria. The location was fantastic in that we liked to go for morning walks along the water and grab a cup of coffee on the return. Additionally, to have grocery stores within walking distance made for easy living. The condo itself was great as it was very clean, comfortable and roomy. We really appreciated the large outdoor area to the back for family meetings and the balcony at the front for viewing the neighborhood activities. Everything you need is here. Thank you for a great trip!

Great place; great neighborhood! Close to many amenities and walking/biking trails.
Only downside is the size of parking lot for the building.
