Demitri and Jessica have created a beautiful, homey space in Kitslano. The home had everything anyone could need. The location was within a quick walk to many restaurants and cafes. The beach was also very close by and the walk through the neighborhood is peaceful and I’m missing it now. I would definitely stay here again. The check in and check out instructions were thorough and helpful. Loved our stay here!

Great property and such awesome owners! They were quick to respond to questions before our stay and were so nice! Their home is clean and has everything you could need!

The place is immaculate, quiet, perfect temperature. Beds are comfortable and bedrooms are dark so slept really well. House has many small but appreciated touches-tissue boxes, wine bottle, snacks, condiments and spices in kitchen. Excellent communication from hosts. walking distance to lots of shops and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful hosts, impressive property with lots of cool updates and amenities not typical for any of the many locations at which we have stayed. Great location with 5-15 minute access to almost everything in the city! Will definitely stay there again on next trip(s).

From the moment we arrived to a warm and welcoming home which included personalised Christmas gifts for our kids, we knew we were staying somewhere special. The host and home were everything we expected from the property details and more. We can’t recommend Demetri’s home more highly. Thank you for making our Christmas even more memorable.

From the moment we walked into Kool Kits, it felt comfortable and safe. The entire area was decorated carefully and well-appointed, with no expense spared. Each room was well-lit and comfortable, making it feel like home right away. Everything worked perfectly and nothing was left out. They thought of everything! Plenty of towels, spices in the kitchen, and other amenities were thoughtfully made plentiful. The friendly guide left for us was detailed and incredibly helpful. We even logged into our PlayStation account and kept up with our usual games! Cooking in the well-appointed kitchen was great, and we were able to have dinner and enjoy leftovers easily. Demitri was always just a quick text away and made us feel incredibly welcome, and that made it even nicer. We will definitely stay here again the next time we visit Vancouver.

If you are looking for a fabulous place to stay, in a great location, with ample free parking readily available, kind and helpful hosts, and amazing amenities, stat at Kool Kits! The suite has everything you can possibly want and much more. We were in Vancouver for my daughter's wedding, and Dimitri went above and beyond to make us welcome and comfortable, all the way to providing a "Congratulations" cake, sparkling wine, and sparkling water. The wedding was wonderful, and the accommodation was perfect. We hosted several extended family meals; the kitchen made food prep easy and the space was as warm and welcoming as if we'd been in our actual home. Well, nicer, actually, as I don't have Dimitri at home to take care of things!

We are so glad we chose this property for our weekend stay with our daughter and son-in-law! We couldn’t have hand-picked better hosts, and the home had everything we could have asked for and then some. The personalized touches upon arrival were extra welcoming, and our stay was comfortable, clean, safe, and relaxing. We will definitely stay here again!

My husband & I, along with our newly minted 21 year old daughter & her boyfriend got to stay at Kool Kits for 3 nights. The beds were amazingly comfortable, the unit was absolutely quiet (we couldn’t hear road noise or neighbors), and warm & cool given we were in the shoulder season. The unit has so many more amenities than listed & has & wonderfully stocked kitchen for cooking. It was convenient to grocery stores, a fantastic Italian restaurant (& others) and within close driving distance to downtown. Demitri made our stay special & we look forward to returning.

We stayed at "Kool Kits" for 3 nights while we dropped off our daughter at UBC. Couldn't be happier with the stay. Lots of room for a family with two teenagers and the house was so well equipped. Kitchen had everything we could need, entertainment system was easy to use to watch TV at night, covered patio was the perfect spot to enjoy a meal, linens were excellent quality and beds were super comfy. The neighbourhood was the perfect location with access to all that Vancouver has to offer. Grocery store, bakery and restaurant all right down the street were convenient and made the stay easy and enjoyable.
5.0

This is a perfect haven! The hosts have truly thought of everything. The gourmet kitchen was such a pleasure to cook in, and the steam shower was an amazing treat. We enjoyed the outdoor dining room, the cook’s kitchen and the cozy living room before retiring to the spacious bedrooms. The house is well Insulated and pin-drop quiet at night. We loved the neighborhood too - an absolute treat to stay here!!!
