The property was outstanding. Clean and so well equipped. Very spacious as well. The kitchen had everything and more that one would need to function. There was also an ice pack and cooler backpack which was so helpful, beach towels and plenty of linens.
The beds were comfortable and linens were fresh.
I’d definitely recommend staying here to enjoy the island!

Jon and Kate were great. They were very communicative and responsive whenever I send a message.
The place was wonderful. It was clean and has a beautiful view. It was great just relaxing on the patio with a cup of coffee.
Highly recommend!

This was our first time to Salt Spring Island. We stayed 2 nights at the condo, had a nice view of the ocean and very nice peaceful community. The unit was as described and the kitchen was well stocked with dishes and utensils to prepare a meal. The only complaint we have is the area rug in the living area was gross

We had the absolute best stay here! Everything, (and I mean everything) was perfect! Morning coffee on the balcony, yoga in the living room with the fireplace on, the moonlight from the master bedroom windows..The location couldn’t have been better! Down the road from the Ferry terminal and five minute drive to town. Our hosts were lovely and responded quickly to all inquiries.
We’re already planning our next stay!

Our stay with Jon and Kate was a great experience. Their place is clean, cosy and really inviting with the view of the bay being quite spectacular. They had all of the amenities right down to a coffee grinder (an essential) and the cooking utensils were all good quality which makes cooking easier. We would definitely stay with Jon and Kate again.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this clean, cozy, and thoughtfully appointed suite on our weekend away. The suite has a beautiful view of the water from the balcony and is just a short walk to the beach. It was also easy to get around town by car from where we were at, allowing us to enjoy the Saturday market and dinner in Ganges and a hike at Ruckle Park. Will definitely be back!

We were visiting the island for a wedding and absolutely loved our stay! The building was beautiful and newer with an elevator which made it easy to bring luggage up.
The property was clean, comfortable and modern! I slept so well and enjoyed the views each morning. We would happily stay again! Thank you so much!

My parents and I met up on Saltspring Island for an extended long weekend to celebrate my Mom’s birthday. We spent the days hiking up on Mount Maxwell and at Ruckle Park, Duck Creek Park, and Burgoyne Bay… after spending the day out in beautiful nature we’d head home to Jon and Kate’s comfortable apartment for a relaxing evening. It was the perfect place for us… we loved the great view and appreciated the well-stocked kitchen. We spent the evenings warm and cozy by the gas fireplace watching movies or playing board games…it was the perfect spot for a relaxing getaway. It was quiet and clean and was just a short drive to the fun shops and restaurants of Ganges. Dinner at the Seaside Restaurant, just a two-minute walk away, was great too. It really is a lovely apartment, it looks just like the photos. Lots of homey touches and very comfortable. I really liked playing the ukulele too. We’d stay there again in a heartbeat!

Really nice spot near the Vesuvius Bay ferry terminal. Ferry traffic goes by for a short duration throughout the day, but overall a peaceful location. You can really enjoy lovely sunsets from the patio. The unit is well appointed and quite spacious. The host was easy to work with, and we enjoyed our stay.

We had a wonderful stay at the place as two couples. The accommodation was perfect for us, boasting two bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. However, I noticed that the photos on Vrbo could use an update since there have been some changes. Notably, the living room now includes a TV, and instead of bunk beds, there are two comfortable single beds in one of the rooms.
The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the fantastic balcony. We enjoyed some memorable dinners there, and to our delight, we even had the privilege of spotting whales in the distance!
One of the great advantages of the location is its proximity to the beach, which is just a short walk away. The water was remarkably warm and inviting for swimming. I would advise bringing water shoes, though, as my partner injured her foot on the beach without them.
For light sleepers concerned about noise from the ferry, worry not. The last ferry departs at 10:30 pm, and the only sounds we heard were the cars driving on and off the ferry; the ferry itself does not blow its horn. Even the first ferry in the morning didn't disturb our sleep.
Overall, it was a fantastic getaway, and we highly recommend the place for anyone looking for a peaceful and enjoyable retreat near the beach.

Arrival and departure at this beautiful ocean view condo was smooth and easy. Directions for location were clear. Beds were comfy and having two full bathrooms was a bonus. Kitchen was well-stocked. Lots of extras - games, sand toys, coffee/tea and even fresh tulips! We would love to stay here again.

We checked in and were so pleased with how easy it was to access the room. The space was bright and sunny with a spectacular view of the ocean and so clean and tidy. Our stay extended over two nights and the place was very quiet along with a very comfy queen bed. This condo was presented online exactly as it shows. I would highly recommend this condo for anyone looking to experience SSI.

Best stocked kitchen I have ever seen! I have been to many rentals where I have had to purchase kitchen utensils. Great deck overlooking the water!
10.0 / 10.0
Location is right beside the ferry which was very convenient. Close to town and to an excellent beach. Spacious with comfortable beds and big bathrooms. Kitchen is well stocked and check-in/out was seamless. Only minor negative is that, with the windows open, the ferry traffic/noise is a bit loud early in the morning.
