Surf Studio
The place was ready when we arrived, access was very easy. The space was clean and equipped with all the essentials. Ryan was easy to communicate with, got us what we needed from coffee to tea towels! He also had some great local recommendations. Beautiful weather and accomodations made it feel like a luxury glamping experience!

Cupid's Pearl Tranquil Retreat by the Sea.
A lot of "bang for your buck" with this stay. The apartment is generously sized and the kitchen is well stocked. We enjoyed making our meals in the well equipped kitchen with a window overlooking the ocean. The garden is absolutely gorgeous with a stunning waterview. The hosts provide a variety of comfortable outside seating options from which to enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

Sleep By the Sea
Roomy, comfy and clean; good bed. Though I didn’t use the kitchen much, it appeared well equipped. Easy drive to downtown Victoria and a 15-20 minute walk to Esquimalt shopping and coffee places. The neighbourhood is residential, pretty, and very quiet - provided a peaceful respite after busy days. The ocean-side park at the bottom of the street is a nice bonus.

West Hill
The host Emma, and the listing, was nothing short of amazing. I stayed for around a month as I was looking for a long term place and Emma made my brand new move to Victoria super easy and accommodating. She really made her listing feel like a home away from home. The listing itself was perfect for my accommodations and had everything I needed and more! I would 100% recommend to anyone who is considering this listing.

Tuck Inn @ Shawnigan Beach Resort
Thoughtfully furnished and comfortable- would love to stay again!

The Suite Tiny Home
Great stay. Easy to locate, 10 minutes from downtown, nice place and quality linens, clean and street parking. Would definitely stay again.

Sweet Suite By The Lake
We loved this space it was perfect for us while we were attending a hockey event at shawnigan lake school. It is minutes away from the school and you could even walk if you wanted to. The hosts were accommodating and the space was well put together.

Otterpoint Beach House Suite
Phenomenal location! Right on the beach and it's a very private suite with nothing but views. Well equiped and clean as well :)

Victoria BC - Entire 3 Bedroom Seaside home.
Jacqueline’s place was absolutely gorgeous and perfect for our group of four adults and three kids. The house was absolutely gorgeous and full of thoughtful touches and the neighborhood was darling and near amenities- a grocery store, some quick restaurants and a Starbucks were nearby and the beach and a cute park were right down the road! Victoria was a short, convenient drive away. We could not have asked for a more lovely place to stay for our family trip, and look forward to staying again someday!

Private waterfront splendour
Enchanting! Wonderful, charming and the views were magnificent! We almost immediately started thinking, is there any way we could rent this for a few months each year and make this our home away from home. Truly, the best place we have stayed in 12 years of Airbnb’s!

Castle in the Sky
Excellent host and home!! 5 star all the way!

A Little House on the West Coast
Great little house with an ocean view equipped with everything you could need! Perfectly matched the description with extra amenities and recommendations that put it over the top. Well worth the price point. Would definitely stay again!

Oceanfront Getaway with Private Dock + Beach
Ashley and Julia were amazing hosts. Catered to an early check in time for my group as we took an early ferry and arrived earlier than check in time. The dock is amazing for crabbing as well!

Water Front Home with Private Dock and Hottub
We really enjoyed our stay at Donovan’s place And would highly recommend it Looking forward to returning this summer

Freedom To Fly
This place is a gem. Looking over the water, watching the seals and birds was so peaceful. The house is very well equipped and beautifully done. Can’t say enough about this place. Enjoy!

2bdm-sleeps6 Condo Victoria WM Resort
This house looked exactly like the pictures and was very comfortable for our family of six. It’s conveniently close to numerous fantastic activities, with Fisherman’s Wharf just around the corner. The beds were very comfortable, and the apartment was beautifully furnished and fully equipped. It is a wonderful place to stay, and I highly recommend it!

2bdm - Condo-Victoria by Fisherman's Wharf#6
Great location for Victoria, beautiful views and lots nearby. Place was comfortable and exactly what we needed.

Dallas Rd Epic Ocean Views One Bedroom Suite
Wonderful place to stay. We came without a car and were able to walk everywhere: Cook Street Village, Beacon Hill park, downtown, Chinatown, the inner harbour. Being able to watch the ships from the front room and walk along the seafront right out the front door was amazing. The house is luxurious and spotlessly clean. A great getaway spot!

Miraloma
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.

Sooke Harbour Getaway
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.

2bdmQ-Worldmark Resort-Victoria, BC
Thanks Lorie! We loved the suite, and the people at the resort were so friendly and helpful! Thanks for hosting us!

2bdmCondo Victoria WorldMark Resort#5
A beautiful, very clean apartment in a wonderful location. The only wish would be is Air conditioning but large fans were provided and that was very nice

Water Falls Hotel, Gem in Victoria's Heart!
We had a wonderful stay and the location is quite unmatched. Long walks along the waterfront with easy access to shops and eateries downtown. Quite outstanding in every way, and the building is well maintained and scrupulously clean. Pricey though, but 5 stars for sure! Jake was friendly and quick to respond when contacted.
