Beautiful, comfortable property

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property in Nanaimo. It was very clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated and very well equipped. The views are very nice and the location is excellent, especially for people who like to walk. The host was super responsive and very accommodating of our requests. Was sad to leave. Would definitely stay here again.

Had an amazing stay

Place was great! I loved the kitchen, it had tons of cooking options (pots, pans, slow cooker, etc.) and the place was so clean. It is in a great location to stores and the street is not very busy. We enjoyed sitting out back on the patio every night where you get a bit of a view of the water. Host was great, friendly, and quick to respond. Really glad we chose this place to stay for the week :)

Approachable Owner

Location. Location. Location. For our stay in Nanaimo this property was perfect-close to Harbour Air, ferry terminals, services & shopping, and the harbourside walkway from the Yacht Club Marina to the downtown park and playground area.

Perfect location, great space, kind host

We really enjoyed our stay at Brittany's place! She lives right next door and introduced herself to make sure we were settled and comfortable, was helpful and easy to communicate with throughout our stay. The place is clean and spacious, and very private. We never needed to drive anywhere downtown, the sea walk path is one block down the road from the house and made it easy to walk to town for food and coffee whenever. Loved the big soaker bathtub and the large kitchen! Thanks Brittany!

Exceeded all expectations.

Super clean and comfortable house. Very spacious and great patios for sitting. The on street parking worked well and the area is quiet and safe. Brittany welcomed us personally and answered any questions and was available via email within an hour. It was a pleasure to be able to rent such a wonderful house for our trip to the island. The location is perfect for exploring north and south. SW

Perfect home away from home

This home is very clean and offers everything you need in the kitchen. The bed upstairs is comfortable. Very relaxing soaker tub and beautiful shower. The location was good for quick access to the hwy to get us off on all of our beach and hiking adventures. We even hosted our local family members for lunch. Overall it was perfect. Brittany was very responsive and had everything ready for easy access. Thank you Brittany!

Well kept & communicative

Its hard to find properties that are both well kept and the owner/manager actually communicates. Brittany responds pretty much right away and keeps a veey tidy gome at a modest cost. 10/10 recommend.

Location location location

Amazing VRBO to call home for 3 nights. The space is just as you see in the pics. Great to have the bedroom on second floor with double closets and an ensuite bathroom as well. Location was prime! We were able to access Nanaimo by foot in less then 15 min. Just a short and lovely walk along the seawall to get just about anywhere downtown for groceries, restaurants, coffee shops and shopping! We would definitely stay again! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. Kathy and Pam

Spacious, well equipped, great location, outstanding host

The unit exceeded our expectations. Well equipped kitchen with lots of cabinets and counter space. My wife cooked each night we were there. Lot of space overall. Full size washer and dryer. Large walk-in shower plus soaking tub. Lots of counter space in full bath. Also a separate half bath. Bedroom on 2nd floor so if stairs are an issue this isn't for you. However, Bedroom is good size. Lot of closet space and drawer space. Comfortable bed. Sleeper sofa in living room. We had no need to use so can't comment on comfort. Enjoyed the back deck with view of water and nice fresh air flow. Location is easy to get to from Departure Bay where ferry comes in and is close to downtown. Also easy access to Highway 19 and 19A. Parking on street in front. Best part is the host. Responsive, accessible, friendly and caring about guests. Answered our questions no matter how silly they might have been promptly. Highly recommend. Hope you enjoy staying there as much as we did.

Nanaimo vacation August 2022

Property very clean and well located. Very close to seawall walk, marina and large park with kids' playground. Well equipped with 1.5 baths, air conditioning- essential in August- a great kitchen, good linens and an excellent bed. Partial views of marina and open water. On the whole, this is a lovely property. Deborah

Great location, fantastic host, everything as advertised

Everything was exactly as it is listed, and as others have commented. The house was very clean, well appointed with everything you would need, and well located just a block from the water, with easy walking/bike access to downtown Nanaimo via the waterfront trail. Most importantly, Brittany (host) was a very timely, clear and responsive with her communications, and just very easy to chat with overall. We enjoyed our stay very much! Thank you, Brittany!
