Terrific stay
Our family of four had a wonderful and relaxing stay here! We felt very comfortable and had all the amenities one would need for a home away from home. There were thoughtful extras like beach towels, Tupperware, and ice pack that we definitely utilized! The hosts were very professional and prompt with communication. We love the island and hope to return soon! Thank you Danielle for having us!

The property was absolutely fantastic...as clean as clean could get, comfy bed and furniture, beautiful kitchen and bathroom, even awesome coffee provided! The host, Danielle, was very personable and takes a lot of pride in what she offers. We would stay here again without hesitation, and we would definitely recommend. The only 'drawback' is that it's a bit of a drive to Victoria (1 hour), but if you don't mind the drive, then this is the place to stay!

This space is attached to a bigger house but with separate entrance. The space seems very new, extremely clean. The host was very accessible through messages. The location is a bit far from the main highway, but very calm and beautiful locality.

We couldn’t have asked for better
It’s everything you hope for in a vrbo stay: above all(for me anyway) clean, well stocked, nice linens and towels, easy access/check in, private with attention to detail. The location is a wee bit remote but it’s also part of the appeal. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to others and certainly would stay again if the opportunity arose

A getaway on Vancouver Island in Beautiful Maple bay
My Bride and I stayed here for two nights between Christmas and the New Year's weekend. It was a very clean, well laid out studio with bathroom. A full kitchen was a plus, although this trip, we just used the Coffee press and water heater.. Very new remodel, very nice. A comfortable bed, clean updated remodel and secure and quiet. Close to both Genoa Bay cafe (closed during our stay due to some weather) and Maple Bay Marina Shipyard Pub, I highly recommend as we had a blast. Thank you

Great weekend get away
Danielle was very helpful with instructions and was responsive with reminders and helpful hints. Unfortunately my phone did not give me the option to respond back to her and I did not feel it neccessary. Sorry Danielle. The suite that we rented was lovely, clean, and modern. It had an appartment size fridge, full stove, microwave, and lovely counter style dining. The kitchen had all the cutlery and utensils for our needs. The space was big, and bright and the TV could swivel to any angle that we wanted to watch from. Thanks for a great stay we will definitely be back.
