Modern Luxury 2 Bedroom Suite Minutes to the Ocean!

The Space:

Beautiful, modern 2 bedroom (plus pull-out sofa) suite with 1 luxurious bathroom. Free parking for up to 2 cars next to the entrance. Huge patio and yard with a BBQ. Kitchen has everything you need to enjoy a fabulous stay. Bathroom has heated tile floors, opening window, and a tub/shower. If you need room for even more guests, I rent the upstairs suite as well. See my other listing! You can rent the entire house to accommodate up to 13 guests.

There is a pull-out couch and chair in the living/dining area and a queen-sized bed in each bedroom. There are 5 bar-stools at the kitchen island for dining and a highchair should you need one for your little.

Two big patios are available to you; one is uncovered and private for your use (with a BBQ), and the second is covered with a propane fire pit and couches and is shared with upstairs unit.

Guest Access:

Kitchen has everything you need for cooking/prepping meals. Coffee, tea, sugar and select spices are included. Propane BBQ on the patio! Orchard with apples, pears and plums (June/July) and fresh herbs and produce (seasonal) are for your use as well. Also strawberries and raspberries to pick in the yard (May-June) and blackberries all over the neighbourhood (July/August). *Please note: The suite does not have a dishwasher.

Netflix and wireless high speed internet included.

Large patio has a dining table with four chairs and umbrella as well as a propane BBQ. There are also lawn chairs and a picnic table for soaking up the sun in the yard :-) Covered patio has couches and a propane fire pit (shared with upstairs unit).

The yard is shared with the upstairs suite and the laundry room is shared as well (only available for stays of 5 days or longer). Covered patio with fire pit is also available for your use, but is shared with the upstairs guests. Please note: This property is located next to the small Pat Bay Highway, so you may hear moderate road noise in the yard during peak traffic times of day. As this is a basement suite you will also hear some noise from the upstairs guests if it is rented during your stay.

Interaction with Guests:

I like to leave my guests in peace, but am available at any time should you need me! Happy to accommodate you in any way I can!

House Rules:

Checkin is 4pm, checkout is 10am. This is a non-smoking property, including the yard. NO EXCEPTIONS! $50 fine for smoking on the property. There are guests in the suite upstairs at various times, so please respect that the property is shared. Be aware of noise, especially at night and in the morning. There is a $200 fine for noise complaints or if the police are called to the house. Laundry is only available for stays of 5 days or longer. Pets are allowed with prior approval first and a one-time $50 pet fee.

Wish we had longer than a 17 hours stay!
It was our last night and we had an early flight. It is very convenient to the airport. Because of the rain we did not have an opportunity to use the outside dining or fire pit area. KItchen was well appointed....even had spices.

A great place to stay on southern Vancouver Island
I stayed at this rental unit for 10 weeks following the sale of my house and relocation to another province. It is spotlessly clean and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The gardens are beautiful and the location is excellent, close to Sidney and a short drive to Victoria. I can't say enough about how well Shannon treats her guests. She is easily accessible and very accommodating. I had one minor issue that she managed right away. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone.

Wonderful family getaway
We loved this property. This is our second time staying here and we loved it both times. This time we stayed in the basement 2-bedroom suite. The bathroom is small and could be an issue sharing with 4 people as you will need to take turns. The yard is great. The kids love being able to run around. The BBQ worked great with the little patio seating by the entrance. The property location is great as it’s right off the highway. The backyard is loud, as it backs onto the highway but you can not hear any of that noise when you are inside the suite. We stayed here as a family of 4 (2 elementary school-age kids).

A great place to stay when visiting the Victoria BC area
If you are looking for a clean modern two bedroom home in the Victoria BC (Sidney area) area don't pass up this beautiful home. Located just off the main highway (17A) about 3 miles south of Sidney BC you have easy access to Victoria and all the local attractions. Close to the international airport as well. This home is a new suite on the lower level (full walk-out) of an existing home & is very clean and modern. Shannon is a gracious host provide all the essential items needed, we especially enjoyed the "home canned" peaches! As mentioned, this is a very clean home with a new feel. I highly recommend Shannon's vacation home if you are visiting the Victoria BC area.

We had a great stay.
The place was exactly as described. We had a small dog with us and when we arrived there were dog dishes waiting for us, such a nice touch! Would have loved to stay an extra night, but it was booked.

Beautiful Grounds, consummate Hosts
The property was perfect for us and the two dogs we were traveling with. We used the outdoor table and grill and really enjoyed the beautiful yard. The suite was very comfortable with everything we needed. Shannon was an excellent host and helped us with several special requests, making our trip hassle free.

Wonderful property in great location
The property had everything we needed for our stay. We loved the location so close to the ocean, easy walking distance with pedestrian overpass to cross the highway. Nice to be out of the city yet just a short trip in to Victoria. Shannon was a delight to deal with. We would definitely recommend this property!

Everything was as described. There is a large yard, which was helpful because we had our dog with us. The suite is as described and was well-stocked and clean. Shannon was responsive and check-in was a breeze.

Great place and even better hosts.
Host Shannon and her husband Jeff were fabulous hosts.. The suite was extremely clean and the house is set on a huge backyard which was great for our dog and back yard grilling. There are two spacious bedrooms at either end of the suite allowing for privacy. We would definitely come back.

Great Stay
This is a great location, equipped with all your needs, and an attentive landlord. Noise from the nearby highway did not bother us at all and the neighbourhood was close to hikes and walking paths.

Cute apartment in good central location.
Loved the apartment! It was in a nice central location—very close to Sidney and not far from Victoria. Only drawback was the traffic noise outside, but inside you did not hear it.
