This was cute comfortable place to stay with just about everything you'd need. We liked the location as it was safe and clean, in a nice area of town. Parking was on the street, but we never had trouble finding a place to park that was close by. I would definitely consider staying here again.

Host (Sid) was great. Found pastries at our door on the 1st morning, and some wonderful Montreal style bagels and cream cheese on day 2. Just a few blocks walk to commercial district along 4th Ave ... shout out to Lokal Coffee Shop (we started our days there) ... and to the Kitsilano beach scene and dining establishments nearby.

It's a nice little basement property. Some of the furniture is dated, but it was still a very pleasurable stay. The beds were comfortable and the owner was great. He brought us bakery items on a couple of occassions. It's close to the beach and lots of restaraunts. We enjoyed our stay.

Great stay. Lovely apartment. Sid and Alix are the most wonderful hosts.

Sid really cares about his guests. He left us a welcome treat, suggested some good eats and activities, and checked in the next day. He knew we were driving a few hours to the airport in Bellingham the morning we checked out and brought us bagels for the road.
The unit is on a quiet side street, and was quiet enough for me to sleep sans earplugs. I am a light sleeper and that is not a given.
Thank you Sid!

We chose this property as it was close to our son and his wife and Kitslano turned out to be a perfect location. The property is well laid out and had everything we needed.
Sid was lovely and provided excellent communication, before and during our stay resolving a couple of items very promptly.
We would choose to return if we visit Vancouver again.

This apt in a house in the neighborhood of Kitsilano is perfect. We were 2 older adults who wanted to explore Vancouver on public transportation. The location for this is perfect. It has close bus stops for the 2 buses that we needed to get to almost all of the neighborhoods. Buses are easy to navigate, they come often, you tap in with your cc for each ride but only pay for one ride so super inexpensive. Neighborhood is quiet but with restaurants and shops within walking distance.
We were greeted by Sid and a bottle of wine and 2 pastries! He then took us on a short neighborhood tour in his car to show us where the shops and restaurants are. The apt is small but clean with comfortable beds, hot water, a very sufficient kitchen and laundry room! Sid checked in with us everyday via messaging to see if we needed anything. On our last day Sid gave us a ride to the train. Thank you Sid and Alix for a wonderful stay in Vancouver.

Sid was very informative and helpful. Place was perfect for our needs. In wonderful Kitsilano neighborhood 1/1/2 blocks from the water as advertised.

Sid and Alix are wonderful hosts! Great fun, lots of tips about where to go and what to do. Their place is in an incredible spot, walk to Kitsilano pool, beach, shops, supermarket, cafes and restaurants. The apartment is very well equipped and the laundry was a bonus. The garden is delightful, it was lovely to sit and have a cuppa on arrival outside in the fresh air, with pastries bought by our hosts, who also ensured we had milk! Above and beyond. Very good value.

This is a great location and Sid and Alix were gracious hosts-always willing to give recommendations. Sid consistently asked us if there was anything we needed. It was a quiet location, comfortable accommodations, and great neighborhood!

My family and I had a lovely stay in Sid and Alix's property. We were greeted with delicious pastries which was so nice after a long day of travel. The location was just what we needed. The neighborhood was nice and quiet!

We spent 3 perfect days at Sid's place in Kitsilano. We got an early check in and were met with wonderful treats on arriving and the morning we left Sid delivered more wonderful treats from one of the many fantastic bakeries in the area.
The great location let us park the car and walk to all our events and restaurants - lots of excellent restaurants. Public Transit was 5 minutes from the house so easy to go anywhere if you are not into driving.
We plan to be back next year for another visit.

We went to Vancouver so my 16yr old daughter and a friend could go to the Louis Tomlinson concert at Doug Mitchell Thunderbird Sports Centre at UBC. The apartment is in a perfect location between the concert, beaches, Granville Island and a local Pub. The hosts were there when we needed them and let us do our own thing when we didn’t. It was a great place to stay. With the 2 bedrooms and easy access to the Transit system we had a great time!

Sid was a great host. He was courteous, caring, and thoughtful. He made sure there were refreshments and a light snack for us to get us through our first night there, as we arrived late after a long day of travel. Great location, very close to the fun shops and eateries of Kits Beach. Beds were very comfortable and easy to catch a cab or Uber to the downtown area. We didnt want to leave.
4.8
From check in to check out Sid was a very accomodating and welcoming host. The suite was quiet and centrally located within walking distance of beaches, restaurants and a short drive to downtown and the University district.

We stayed for 4 days and 3 nights in this lovely space, right in Kitsilano. It was the perfect place to explore from - close to the beaches, major bus routes and groceries/restaurants. Beds were comfy, kitchen was well-stocked and the space was perfect for our family of 4. Sid and Alix were so lovely, made our arrival special, and checked in on us regularly.
Would definitely love to come back here in the future, highly recommend this place to stay!

This is one of the best short-term rentals I've had among dozens in Vancouver. Great, present, helpful hosts. Treats on arrival after a very long day much appreciated. Very 'homey'---most places maybe have shampoo and a salt shaker and a couple of tea bags, this is amazingly provisioned both in kitchen and bathroom. Also, there is an air fryer. But beyond that, pleasant art decoration and attention to detail just makes it feel like a real place and not some basement someone's put a fold out couch in. Also close enough to walk to main drag or the beach, or a bus stop. We hope to be back.

Had a wonderful few days at this charming property near Kitsilano Beach. Apartment is cozy and well appointed. We were within walking distance of many restaurants, pubs, and shopping. Would definitely return. And Sid is a delightful and generous host.

I annually book an appt at Kits beach to visit my daughter and this one is a keeper. The appt is cozy, has everything we need, walking distance to great attractions, and Sid was an amazing host. We will be back :)

The property was in a great location. Close to beaches and transport links to the city.
The host Sid was very friendly and left welcome gifts.
He made sure we had everything we needed.

We will definitely be back in the future.

The apartment worked very well for us. The owner left very nice gifts for us--wine, breads, etc. The apartment was well stocked with all the necessary kitchen items, TV, nice bathroom and other spaces. Laundry is shared with owner. The apartment is within walking distance to restaurants and the Kits beach(maybe 6-8 blocks) We did take taxis (yellow top blackcaps) for trips further on. and to and from the rail station and to the big grocery store. Very quiet stay and friendly host. Thanks!

Amazing location with fantastic owners, furnishings and carpeting could be updated
My family and I had a great time in Kitsilano/Vancouver. The location is about as perfect as we could have asked for at this price. The hosts were extremely easy to communicate with and went out of their way on multiple occasions to support us and make our stay easier.
The drawback was that both beds and the couch all are on the older side, along with the carpeting that encompasses the majority of the unit. This is a basement unit, and many things seemed damp and worn out.
If they updated the furnishings, they could charge A LOT more for a great spot with great hosts.

Saved by Sid!
We were so grateful to have found this spot when a previously planned host sold their property and left us in a panic. Sid calmed my worries and provided a friendly and comfortable stay for all of us. The wine and delicious pastries were just the icing on the cake!

Great visit, would recommend this property. Our host Sid was very welcoming, friendly and helpful. The location cannot be beat. A short walk to the beach and great local shops and cafes (try the Naam cafe!!). Unit was clean and as described in listing. Beds were VERY comfortable - honestly so soft and cozy. Unit is a lower level apartment but we did not have issues with damp. Would highly recommend as a home base to explore Vancouver and surrounding area.
