Thank you once again for sharing your home with us. The grandchildren we a little louder this time as it was one more and the next time we come, there will be another one. Everyone enjoyed your home, which allowed us to have an actual Christmas Day. This year we were all together for the first time since 2018. Could not be more thankful. Hopefully, we will be back in the New Year. Again thanks for sharing.

A real pleasure to stay here once again. The place has all we need and moreso. We will return if possible, for our yearly x-country ski junket.
We always look forward to this leg of our trip. Such a well-stocked, comfortable, welcoming rental with fantastic restaurants nearby.
Thanks again for hosting us.

Property was immaculate, and the owners lived one floor below our rental. Debbie and Dale chatted with us both in person and via texts asking us if we needed anything, or to answer any questions that we had about the area.
Overall experience was not only great…it was exceptional!!!

All was fantastic

Property was lovely, location perfect, amenities amazing and hosts could not have been nicer! Our party of 5 (grandparents, parents and 2 year old grandson) had everything we needed. Condo had high chair, playpen, toys, books, stuffies, toddler dishes and cutlery, wagon….perfect for families with little ones who are flying into town and limited as to how much equipment they can bring! All kinds of little extra’s including cookies and other treats to welcome us. We will definitely be back!

My friends and I were very happy with our stay at the Grandmas Elephant Hideaway property. It was very clean, spacious, and great location to restaurants and lake.
The checkin process was easy and the hosts made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. We’ve already booked for next year!

This was our second time staying at Grandma’s Elephant Hideaway, and it was just as good as the first time. Dale and Debbie are over the top in the host department. One of our group has a lot of allergies, and they made sure that the room she was staying in was completely scent free. Everything is spotless, the beds are comfortable, kitchen is incredibly well stocked, and if we need anything or have questions, the responses are timely. Just be aware that there is one fairly long set of stairs, and no elevator. We have already booked for next year!

Enjoyed staying at this VRBO while travelling to Penticton for a cycling vacation with the guys. Accommodations were clean and spacious with a very well equipped kitchen. We appreciated the secure private garage for storing our precious bicycles safely!

The condo was fully stocked with everything we needed to enjoy Penticton. The location was an easy walk to the lakefront, and there were a number of restaurants and amenities nearby. We would go back

This is the first VRBO I've ever been in that needs to get a 10 star rating! The things that stood out beyond the normal: A welcome basket full of goodies (including a small elephant statue); amenity trays in eat room with bottled water, hand cream, face masks, and more: amenity trays in bathrooms with literally everything you would ever need including individual mouth wash and dental floss; an electronic welcome board for checking in and out and with links to things to do in the area and lots of wonderful elephants, of course! Oh, and when was the last time you stayed anywhere where the smell of warm chocolate cookies greeted you as you opened the door. They were wonderful and enjoyed with the chilled white wine left for us. Behind all this were the owners, who have gone above and beyond to make you feel welcome. They were so kind and helpful. We will return to Penticton again and look forward to staying here again. Book this place - your will not be dissapointed!

Literally the best place I've ever stayed, had a great welcoming gift of fresh baked cookies, and a very cool interactive screen to help figure out things to do in the town. Decorated very cute as well!

What a great weekend of riding and relaxing. The lodging was very comfortable and location was perfect. Dale and Debbie are super hosts and lots of thought has gone into looking after every detail of what you might need in your stay.

Very lovely, cozy and welcoming. I love the decor and all the supplies we're provided with. The owners are such lovely people and I'm glad I got to stay here; easily the best place I've ever stayed in on a business trip. I can't wait to stay here again as I have already found comfort here at this elephant abode. It is also very convenient.
PS: Thank you for the elephant friend on my bed, I have named him Brady. See you next time, Brady :)

Thank you very much for your hospitality. Your attention to detail is exquisite. We had an enjoyable time celebrating our sister's 70th birthday. Would certainly recommend a place to stay in Penticton. All the best in 2023. Loved the elephants. Very comfortable and well-equipped accommodations. Would highly recommend it to others.

Debbie and Dale.
What a wonderful stay. You two are the ultimate hosts - you absolutely think of "everything" one could possibly need.
The Condo is beautiful and comfortable - we enjoy looking at the elephant displays. The touch screen display with the welcome greeting and easy access to information was fantastic.
Hoping to be back soon. June

Thank you so much for your warm welcome, friendliness, and generosity in providing everything to make our stay perfect - you really have thought of everything.!
It is rare to find hosts who "go the extra mile." A true "home away from home."
Thank you once again - from all of us. This will be a memorable part of our vacation from the UK.

This was our first time staying in a vacation rental and we were blown away with this place! Dale and Debbie were very helpful with helping us navigate our stay and the condo was absolutely wonderful. It felt like a home away from home. The location was within perfect walking distance to all amenities and the rink where we walked daily to watch our daughter play hockey. Thank you Dale and Debbie! We will be back! :)

Dale & Debbie were the most attentive hosts we have ever rented from. The condo was very clean, and it was nice to stay in town where it was easy to walk to lake & restaurants. Would happily rent from them again.

We had a wonderful time here in Penticton. Your home was amazing, especially all the thoughtful touches. There was not a single thing you could improve on - perfection. Thank you so much for your hospitality. The cookies were fabulous.

Dale and Debbie are the definitions of super hosts. Upon arrival, we were surprised with a thoughtful welcome basket and a bottle of wine. The place was clean and had everything we needed to enjoy our time there including cooking utensils, comfortable seating, toiletries, etc.
Debbie and Dale went above and beyond to make sure we had a good stay. They have a great home and manage this unit effectively. We will definitely be returning next time we come to town!

Thank you Deborah and Dale! We have now completed our second extended stay at Grandma’s Elephant Hideaway and I can’t wait to make it a third. There are absolutely no negatives to this accommodation. The kitchen, bedrooms and bathrooms were incredibly well stocked, even a playpen with bedding, high chair and booster seat for our infant granddaughter. The location is perfect. Just a short walk to the beach, but far enough to escape the noise confusion of the Peach Festival. The downtown core with eateries, shops, breweries and Farmers’ Market are also easily accessible by foot. The only thing left for us to do was make the memories, and that we did! This place rivals any first class hotel, but with all the advantages of home.

Excellent Place to Stay
This is the second time we have rented this condo. It is a super clean with everything you possibly may need. The owners go above and behind with extra details that make your arrival special. We have booked for our next visit and would highly recommend this location.

Fantastic Hosts, Fantastic Location
Dale and Debbie are truly remarkable hosts! Communication was seamless. They went out of their way to have us feel welcome as we arrived, the highlight for my son was a fresh batch of Chocolate Chip cookies on the counter still warm as we arrived at the condo. A chilled bottle of local wine was my wife's favourite welcome gift! The Condo had everything we could possibly have conceived of needing. It was clean and the perfect cool temperature to walk into on a warm day. Having a garage bay separate from the unit available as well was super helpful for drying and storing my son's hockey gear as we were in town for a hockey camp. The location is absolutely ideal, just a couple blocks from both the beach and the event centre, close enough to both for easy walking but far enough away that there is plenty of parking in the neighbourood and some peace and quiet when you arrive home. Couldn't have asked for a better experience all around! Highly recommended for your next visit to Penticton!

Did not disappoint
Lovely place to call home for 3 days. Great location and walking distance to shopping, beach, and restaurants. Comfortable beds, A/C, and bedding made for a good nights sleep. Well stocked kitchen and BBQ. Covered deck was a bonus. Would rent again.

Book now! You won't regret it!
We stayed here at the beginning of June.
Tons of space for 4 (was supposed to be 5) ladies - convenient to walk to many of the Penticton hot spots downtown for food and drink but also stocked enough that if you decide to stay in and cook a gourmet meal while you sip a local libation, you will want for nothing. The hosts have thought of everything in a tasteful, welcoming and extremely clean way!
We'll be back for sure and will plan to stay longer. Thank-you!

Hospitality at its best!
From the time I booked to the end of our stay, every attention to detail was paid, down to the birthday cupcakes! The apartment is furnished with quality and style. A short walk to the waterfront and beautiful Main Street meant we were never far from the fun, can’t wait to return!

A Great Experience
We have used VRBO's on many occasions. This was by fair the best experience we have had. Dale & Debbie have thought of everything you need to be comfortable. It really felt like home during our stay. We played some golf and attended the Peach City Beach Cruise. A great time, we will be back.

Great place to stay and a great location!
Four of us came to Penticton for a week long bridge tournament. The condo is about a block from the playing site - ideal. The beds were really comfortable, and the kitchen is well equipped for pretty much everything. Great spaces for socializing and sitting around chatting. The weather didn't cooperate so we didn't use the deck much, but it is spacious and comfortable too. Deb and Dale were so welcoming and quick to answer any questions we had. I have stayed at many nice VRBO rentals, and I have never before seen such attention to detail and to make us feel as welcome as possible. We've already booked it for next year!

Outstanding
Our stay was short but we loved every second of it! We took advantage of the proximity to downtown and the beach to walk and explore as well as visiting some wineries on the "Bench." The amenities in the unit were truly second to none - thank you for all of the thoughtful touches. We WILL be back. :)

This place deserves more than 5 stars! The property is not only well located but also extra clean and detailed looked after.
For a family of 5, we could not ask for a more comfortable place to call home in penticton.
Dale and Debbie truly are the super host!

Home away from Home
The property was immaculate, spacious, comfortable and had everything you could possibly need for a short or extended stay. In fact when we thought we figured out they didn’t have an random cooking utensil - ie garlic press , it arrived the next day at the door . Dale & Debbie go above and beyond to make sure you feel welcome , have everything you need , and that your stay is amazing. It was a 12 day stay during which We were celebrating 2 Birthdays in our group and they dropped off a beautiful cake, charcuterie board, wine and flowers with thoughtful cards for each of us. I cannot recommend this place enough. They are beyond fantastic hosts!! Thank you and we cannot wait to come back !

Clean, well equipped and central
This is a very clean and well equipped condo located walking distance to downtown pubs, the beach, etc. The kitchen is fully equipped and our hosts prepared the best ever welcoming baskets and gifts I have ever received (and we have travelled alot!). Good parking, a secure building, and the hosts just live downstairs so were available to assist on anything we needed.
We come to Penticton every winter, and will be staying here from now on!

Top Notch
The hosts Deborah and Dale were excellent they treat you like family. We came to celebrate a late Christmas with our kids and grandbabies and asked if they minded putting up a Christmas tree. They didn't stop there. The whole house was decorated beautifully Welcome baskets and goodies everywhere. My husband and I have stayed in many vacation rentals. This one made me say WOW from the moment walking in the door and felt like home. Everything you need is here. This is the place to stay when going to Penticton.

This is a very spacious condo within a very short walk to Okanagan Beach, downtown, the Convention Centre, casino, restaurants and stores. It is very easy to find and close to the main thoroughfares and quiet. Everything one could possibly want to feel at home, has been supplied by the owners and the beds are cosy. Nicely and whimsically decorated. Next time I am in town I will be looking to see if Grandma’s Elephant Hideaway.
