Vacation rentals with a patio in Mill Bay

Astrid and Stephen’s place in the marina was an absolute gem. When we first arrived, we were greeted by a friendly neighbour who so happened to be Stephen who showed us to our unit, and helped us check in. Though it rained for much of our visit, the views were still stunning—peaceful, calming, and a perfect escape. The home itself was pristine and full of charm, clearly cared for with thought and love. Every little detail made it feel like a true retreat. We flew in for my son’s hockey playoffs, and the location couldn’t have been better—an easy and scenic trip to and from the arena. In fact, we loved it so much that we added two extra nights to our stay instead of touring to Victoria. No regrets! The local touches were a highlight—morning walks for fresh sourdough bread from Grain, amazing local wines at nearby restaurants that we walked to for a few lunches, dinners and a stop for some delicious tubs of local ice cream that we stocked up on! Grateful.

Thoughtfully furnished and comfortable- would love to stay again!

Kirsten was very friendly and accomodating. I'm grateful she accepted our last minute booking and she also let us check out later than the set time. They have a very curious and adorable orange cat who hung out with us for a while during our stay and we really appreciated his company

We are repeat guests because Catherine and her place are perfect for us.

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!

This is a wonderful place to stay. Adrianna is an outstanding host. I would come back any time again. Five well deserved stars all around. Thank you!

I have stayed in AirBnBs all over the world, and this was the best-equipped, most “perfect” apartment I’ve had the pleasure to enjoy. Everything was beautiful and new, with a terrific home manual. We were extremely comfortable, and the hosts were great at communicating. The kitchen was spacious and extraordinarily well provisioned. The bathroom even had a towel warmer! :)

We had a great weekend at Jonathan’s place. We felt very comfortable in the space and it is just as described. The view is even better than the photos! We loved the serene views, great balcony and well sized bedrooms. Very peaceful and quiet spot (though be aware the small Vesuvius -Crofton ferry terminal is very close by) with a short walk to a lovely little beach. Communication was excellent with great suggestions and info. We very much appreciated that the entire property is smoke free. Would definitely stay here again when on Saltspring!

We had an amazing stay at Marianne’s place in the woods with a beautiful ocean view. The cabin was peaceful, cozy, and exactly what we needed. Marianne was incredibly helpful and responsive to all my questions. Definitely planning to come back in the future!

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!

Absolutely beautiful home away from home. Michelle's place is impeccably clean and well appointed. We loved the back patio when it was sunny out. Highly recommended. 5 Stars all around!

Spacious home with a beautiful view! Well equipped kitchen. Very quiet neighborhood. Had a wonderful week.

I’ve stayed at Airbnbs all over the place and this was definitely one of my favorites. So cozy and private inside with charming decor and the location is great for exploring the southern part of Vancouver island. The fireplace was definitely my favorite feature and made evenings winding down after a long day of adventures very relaxing. I usually don’t use dishwashers at Airbnbs because they’re almost always disgusting inside and I can’t bear the thought of eating off dishes covered in invisible nastiness, but this dishwasher was so pristine inside and very quiet when operating. The w/d setup is also great and I enjoyed the heated bathroom tiles. Felt like I was in the lap of luxury. Would definitely stay here again!

Excellent location and property! We stayed here for a weekend while exploring the Victoria area. Sonja is an excellent host and very friendly, ensuring our stay was comfortable and memorable. The suite was cozy and well-equipped. We can't wait to visit again and highly recommend this lovely retreat to anyone.

Perfect quiet getaway! The area was peaceful and relaxing. The room was clean and well-maintained. Our hosts were incredibly friendly and provided crystal-clear instructions for everything. Would definitely stay here again!

Sean and Kara's guest house was very spacious, spotless, and comfortable! The house is located in a lovely, quiet area, and we adored having Ruby (a friendly kitty) as our welcoming committee!

Gorgeous view. Well furnished. Excellent host. Really a wonderful stay!!

Clean and comfortable. Nice bathroom. Great location for our visit!

We had a fantastic stay at Timothy's apt/condo in the Waterfalls Hotel! Tim met us near the underground parking area, showed us our parking space, showed us everything in the apt. and how to work it, and even gave us advice on things to do and see in the area. He was very friendly and helpful. The apt. was just the right size for 2 people; the kitchen and bathroom were exceptional; the furniture was comfortable; the outside areas were beautiful and fun, especially with the smokeless firepit. We also found all 10 of Tim's "creatures" that were hidden in and around the trees and shrubs. I can't think of anything that we didn't love about the place! Also, the weather was great while we were in Victoria, a bit windy but sunny every day. We'd definitely stay here again!

Stunning views and a wonderful space with a delightful garden. We loved it here and did not want to leave. This property has access to the ocean, and a huge deck to watch the ocean and wildlife. The suites are well appointed, clean and spacious. The suites even included binoculars! We would recommend this spot - it was well worth the drive.

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.

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at the Inn of the Sea! Debbie's suite was beautifully furnished and decorated, the bed and sofas were comfy, and we loved the loft style architecture of the townhouse with skylights and tall ceilings. The partial oceanview was also lovely. We enjoyed the amenities offered, like the communal hotub and BBQs (but a set of BBQ metal tongs or flipper weren't found within the suite unfortunately). The only minor con was noticing the outdoor spaces (main and smaller decks) weren't cleaned; the leaves and dirt should've been swept and the tabletop needed wiping too. Once my husband cleaned it, the deck was more inviting and enjoyable. Overall it was a nice place to stay, with lots to explore between Nanaimo and Ladysmith.
