AFFORDABLE WATERFRONT, DWNTWN LUX, WEST BALCONY, A\/C, KING BDRM, FAB VIEWS
About this condo rental
Nestled in Victoria, this charming condo for $115 per night is a fantastic choice for your next vacation. Welcome Travellers! This luxurious King bdrm condo FRONTS sunny west center front directly On the Edge of Victoria's downtown harbor with NO ROAD OR TRAFFIC out front, in a seven story residential building, offering both scenic peacefulness and convenient access. Why not enjoy breakfast or Happy Hour sunset on the balcony while watching up close seals frolic, Pacific cargoes move past under the impressive, new suspension bridge and rowing teams practise? Or on a cool evening, enjoy curling up by the living room fireplace with one of our books or a movie as the harbor lights twinkle on with takeout treats from the delicious ground floor restaurant. Wake refreshed from the comfort of the sumptuous KING SIZE pillow-top bed surrounded by carefully selected linens and furnishings. Enjoy a romantic second fireplace, in the bedroom, and view harbor activity while still in bed. (A comfortable Queen-size pull-out sofa bed is available in the living room). The air in our condo does NOT share air sources within the building, but is both gas heated and electrically cooled specifically IN OUR unit protecting you from shared air except in public spaces. Our cleaning includes a full wipe down of surfaces with a bleach solution not just regular soap products to guard against viruses. Cool off in our downtown Harbor's Edge comfort, with a/c, never needed as much as these warmer summers now. See our condo video of The Mermaid Suite Victoria BC to witness the comforts provided and the lovely setting with charming water taxis, actually little harbor ferries, zipping regularly from the wharf below to transport you, inexpensively, on the water to Victoria's many attractions. Should you wish, whale watching and kayaking excursions are just a few steps away plus bike rentals to enjoy truly scenic biking. A short walk will bring you to all major downtown attractions, including the Empress Hotel and Convention Center, the Parliament Buildings, the Museum, and some of Victoria’s finest restaurants. Nearby are many boutiques, theatres and shopping opportunities. I always enjoy helping guests plan activities or suggesting restaurants when they share with me their preferences. Many are immediately outside our building just a short walk or harbor ferry thrill. The four piece bath includes a Deep soaker tub for your relaxation, a shower and hair dryer. The kitchen is fully equipped including both a regular and convection oven for a short stay or a season. The rooftop full 360 degree view of the harbor, city and distant Washington state Olympic mountains is an excellent viewing point while using the communal bbq and patio furniture. I provide grocery store details for close by shopping and scenic country road driving into town details from the airport if that is of interest rather than the highway. We want all our guests to leave having Truly experienced Victoria’s beauty and variety. This is why Victoria received the 2023 Conde Nast Traveller Award for Best Small City in North America based on lifestyle variety and ease of access to so many local treasures, and beauty plus Fabulous eating! Hiking gorgeous scenery, deep sea fishing, vineyard and fine food explorations all abound. We will happily pick you up at the airport or ferries for a reasonable charge if pre arranged well in advance. We are 15 minutes walking distance from the Seaplane Terminal to Vancouver, an easy overnight escape,15 minutes from the downtown Victoria Seattle Ferry port, 35 minutes driving from the Victoria Airport, and 40 minutes from the British Columbia Ferry Terminal at Swartz Bay. We provide dedicated underground parking. and are happy to advise you with about grocery delivery, reduced rental car rates, and information on restaurants and attractions. Pets only by prior written arrangement, and for visits of one week or longer please, not a few days. Our convenient location does not require a car since walking is close to most of what you need and busses are close. Renting a car for a day or two of exploration further away works well. In town most of our guests find a car expense unnecessary for daily use. In addition to our 3 day minimum, and weekly stays, I am offering any consecutive 28 days April - Oct from $4500-5600 CAD rent - from $2800- $3400 in winter and Much Less now in USD$, a Super Special at the Edge of the downtown harbor in a west facing sunset view, air conditioned condo furnished beautifully for your comfort. No need to start at the first of the month. eg. Sept 15 start, depart Oct 13. If you prefer a 2 or 3 week price, the daily rate will be higher than the 4 week discount, but less than the short term daily rate. Do contact me to quote you a price. VRBO quotes its prices in $USD or in $CAD based on the country's flag you selected on the Top Right of the first page when you click into our site. Be careful to see in what currency your rent price is quoted so that you are comparing the same currency prices across all rentals. VRBO provides owner phone numbers once a booking is made, but feel welcome to email questions before you book. Browse our pictures and imagine yourself holidaying here with this gorgeous view, and so many wonderful activities and restaurants close by. Our video brings all this description to life at The Mermaid Suite Victoria BC. Whew! That's a lot of information. Feel free to connect with us with your questions. We look forward to accommodating you.

We had a relaxing anniversary, enjoying the view and location, easily walking to downtown.

My friend and I really appreciate the location of this condo. We have stayed in a different unit in the past but this unit we found is bigger than the other one. Even though it wasn’t cool enough outside to warrant using the fireplace, the fact that it was there for us to use if we wanted was a nice touch. The owner checked in with me to make sure that all was clean and ready for us upon arrival. There were a couple things that she and I were able to easily remedy. We would stay here again for sure.

Dissatisfied for a 28 day stay. Unsecure WiFi, credit card was compromised within one minute of use. Poor lighting and air conditioning. No house cleaning, had to wash towels and provide supplies such as toilet paper, dish washer detergent and dish washing soap. Patio door was difficult to open. This problem was not resolved by owner during our extended stay. Problem with TV sound and inadequate channel selection for viewing. Nice location but loud music at night from local bars. We expected better from a VRBO listing.

We could do everything from that location that we set out to do. This makes all the difference. Wonderful Harborview.

Good location, very convenient to enjoy Victoria. Check in requires scheduling a time with a local point of contact, versus keyless entry. This resulted in a one hour wait to access property. Also point of contact entered unit when we were not on property. Property would benefit from updates to furniture and fixtures.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We loved sitting on the balcony mornings and evenings and we fell in love with the adorable water taxis below. Early morning rowers went by. Evenings the lights of town and the blue ones on the bridge were enchanting.
The location was perfect for many restaurants nearby, especially Chinatown.
Note that for security your key fob only opens doors on your floor or the garage and rooftop. (As well as the front door. I made the mistake of roaming the building after going to the rooftop and had no fob to get back in. My husband came in handy.

The view was great, condo had what we needed, communication with everyone was awesome. Everything went smoothly. Had some of the best meals. Can’t say enough about the quality of food in Victoria. Had great adventures. Hope to revisit this spot again next year! Thanks for the opportunity!

Clean. Slightly outdated decor. No A/C in unit made for really hot conditions.
Found some silverfish running around in bathroom. Overall nice stay, excellent area and the Champagne was a nice treat!

This condo was in a great location. There are many shops, restaurants, pubs, coffee shops, etc. within walking distance. A few of our favorite places were Craft (microbrew/eatery), Union Pacific Coffee Company and The Irish Times Pub. The water taxis are just a few steps away. The view of the harbor is great. It was nice to have a reserved parking spot. We kept so busy that we didn’t even turn the TV on one time. The bed was comfortable which felt good after putting in over 14,000 steps each day enjoying the sights of Victoria and other nearby destinations. We would definitely stay here again.

Our check-in process was seamless; a beautiful view over the harbour greeted us. The Pandora Street bridge is raised from time to time to allow larger vessels to pass through; quite interesting to watch! The suite overlooks the outdoor patio of a restaurant; we were within easy walking distance of so many things to do and see! I'd stay again for sure.

We spent the month of March escaping the Alberta winter in this perfectly located condo. Everything we needed to make it feel like home was provided. The delicious welcome bottle of champagne was a treat.
We chose to fly as Victoria is a very walkable city and the location of the condo is ideal. We purchased bus passes for the month which was great if we got carried away with the sights and maybe walked too far one way! We did rent a car for a few days for longer excursions to Salt Spring Island and the Malahat Skywalk and Chemainus. The secure underground parking stall was a nice bonus.
It is not an easy task to tear yourself away from the harbour view! Watching the harbour taxis, rowers, opening of the bridge, barges, tall ships, seals, otters and sea birds occupied hours.
We hope to return one day!

We had an amazing experience in Victoria. Our stay was clean, very comfortable and convenient in location. We loved watching the water taxis come in and out of the harbor. We were even greeted upon arrival with a complimentary bottle of Champagne. We highly recommend and would stay there again.

The mermaid suite is a wonderful place to stay in Victoria. You can't beat the beautiful waterfront views and the walking distance to so many attractions. Access to the roof top patio is big plus. Owner provides a personal greeter and a bottle of sparkling wine - such a classy touch! We hope to return.

My wife and I had a wonderful week in Victoria. Colleen was very helpful with suggestions for restaurants and things to do in the area and it was greatly appreciated. There was also a welcome bottle of champagne which was also a nice touch. The views are amazing and the ease of navigating the city from the location is a plus. Everything about our stay went off without a hitch enhancing the great time we experienced. This would definitely be our first choice for future visits to Victoria. Many thanks to Colleen and Don for sharing their wonderful property and to Shir for the great check in process.

That was an understatement! From the balcony you can see a small stretch of the bay. Water taxi's coming in and out of port, just steps a way from the entrance. Downstairs is a nice pub with outdoor seating, decent food, and drink. On Sunday, they had a live classical guitarist that we could listen to from the comfort of the condo.
So many cool things were within walking distance (I don't walk much, and still found it well within my range).
The condo itself was lovely. Plenty of cookware to make meals.
We will book this place again on our next trip.

What a superb condo in downtown Victoria; the property manager is on top of the situation and able to quickly handle any questions/issues you may have
4.0
The location is great, close to everything. Parking is great. Lots of restaurant options. Beautiful view from the balcony. However, the condo is too warm, no A/C. The place wasn't cleaned when we arrived, e.g. sticky floor, dusty carpet, pee stains on toilet. We ended up cleaning the place ourselves. Also, the owner required all renters to wash and dry all the towels before checking-out.
