The stay at Victoria’s was wonderful. The basement unit has a private entry and is easy to access. It’s very spacious, modern, new and clean. I’m very particular about cleanliness, and this stay was top notch. Clean, organized, well maintained! Towels and bed sheets were clean and comfortable. Each room had a temperature set, which was great as we came during the colder days on the island. We had all the necessities (and more) provided. The parking on the street was very easy and safe. Victoria provided very clear instructions from the start, and promptly answered any questions we had throughout the stay. Overall this was a fantastic stay! Would stay again and would highly recommend.

Perfect spot for our family wanting to visit Victoria but have enough space for our kids and dog. The proximity to a playground, trails and grocery store made our stay easy!

Lovely Family Suite

We had a lovely stay. It was clean and tidy with great amenities. The host Viktoriya was so kind and accommodating, was so prompt with her responses and made our stay so pleasant. It was nice and quiet and well stocked with items you might forget to pack. Would definitely recommend staying here while visiting the Victoria area.

Stay in Victoria area

Overall we enjoyed our week. A heads up about spotty phone connection would have been helpful. We were disappointed that the beach was not what we expected. The area has walking trails to explore.

The property was new and extremely clean, and all amenities were in perfect working order. The location of the property was within an easy drive to shopping and restaurants. The host was contacted twice with questions, and the owner answered within minutes, and all the questions asked were answered fully! Not sure of the pet scenario, as we and our friends do not own pets.

Awesome location, beautiful and spacious place. Victoria was very responsive and even reached out to check on us during our stay, to ensure we had what we needed. I would definitely stay here again. For those not us not from areas where basements are a thing, it’s good to know ahead of time that your windows don’t have views, and you’ll hear noises from above. Not an issue for us at all as we were out and about each day. Again, a wonderful stay, look forward to coming back!
