Our multi generational family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this large family home which is very close to both downtown Victoria and the seashore stretching from Willows Beach - which was great for the grandchildren to play in the sand - down to the tidal pools that they explored each time the tide was out.

This property was perfect for our annual boys bike trip. The location was excellent in a beautiful part of the region. The host was great to deal with and the home had lots of room and was very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.
4.0
Clean rooms and bathrooms. Well located in a great neighbourhood, and especially for kids. Right beside a playground, lots of activities, books and toys for kids and adults too. The kitchen has everything you would need, but is unorganized, jam packed, making it difficult to find things. Overall, a great stay, and I would stay there again with my family.
5.0
My wife and I spent 5 nights in this spacious house in Oak Bay with our daughter, son-in-law and two young grandsons. The house is comfortable and well-appointed with lots of recreational and musical equipment, great for keeping a couple of energetic youngsters entertained. It is located beside a park with a playground. It is also a short walk from Willows Beach. The kitchen is well equipped. We appreciated the large deck equipped with gas BBQ and patio set which we used several times for outdoor dinners during our stay. Our host Tina was courteous and helpful, giving us a good orientation for the house and making helpful suggestions for things to do during our stay in Victoria. I would recommend this property, particularly for a family with younger children.

Great location and plenty of room for 6 of us. We enjoyed being able to play ping pong and pool and being able to walk to the beach from the house. Enjoyed our coffee on the deck as we enjoyed the peaceful neighborhood.

This home was comfortable and in a great location for us. Early evening walks were pleasant walking through the neighbourhood that their home is beside. Lots of space and the kitchen is very well stocked. The owners are very easy to work with. We would rent here again!
5.0
A spacious family home with all the comforts a family needs. Guests are able to spread out, something which is much appreciated when one has travelled a distance. Our only criticism would be that lack of functioning lights made reading difficult on occasion. Also if the owners intended that tenants should be able to use the media system, more instructions were needed. But it was delightful to see the deer in the adjacent park. Overall this was a very pleasant and convenient place to stay.

This family home was comfortable and spacious. It is not updated at all, so don't expect a renovated property. The beds were comfortable and the huge kitchen was great for our family reunion.

We enjoyed our stay at Tina's home. The home has not been updated but is nevertheless comfortable and wonderfully located close to the ocean, for our morning walks. The deer strolling through the yard was a bonus!
