We sincerely hope that you and your family are doing well and staying positive while we ride out this situation together-but apart.

We will accept non-BC residents as guests, as long as you meet the requirements on the Covid-19 Declaration and that upon arrival, you self-assess and confirm that your health is the same as it was on the date that you signed the Covid-19 Declaration. We reserve the right to decline visitors to our suite based on recent health and travel history.

Such a great place for a peaceful, comfortable stay in Victoria. Our host, Cathie, was attentive but not intrusive. There were breakfast foods that she left for us which was not expected but greatly appreciated. We will definitely stay there again on our next visit.

Cathie’s apartment was perfect for our visit to Victoria. It’s very close to Uvic and just a short drive into the city. It was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. Our big living room window faced their gorgeous flower garden. We loved the breakfast items that Cathie provided (eggs, bread, juice, bananas) and we would definitely stay here again.

Had an awesome stay at Waterloo Garden. The suite is exceptional...clean, bright, cozy and comfortable. All the amenities you need and a few extras to ensure a comfortable stay.

Was looking for a property that was clean, quiet, close to amenities and bus routes (as I was without a vehicle), and for a reasonable price. This unit did not disappoint! The location was perfect; on a quiet street, close to a bus stop, but had parking as well. Very clean, well maintained unit. Kitchen was fully stocked with cooking equipment, basic pantry items, and even an assortment of breakfast choices! It is quite obvious that a ton of care and thought was put in to the unit. Cathie, the host, is amazing!
10/10 would stay here again!

The property was immaculately cleaned, well stocked and comfortable. The location in an East Saanich neighborhood was quiet and relaxing with a beautiful backyard patio. Easy access to downtown, Butchart Gardens, Lochside Trail and so much more. The communication with Cathie was fantastic. Thank you for a very pleasant stay!

Cathie met us on our arrival. Gave us a few pointers of the apartment and places to visit. Everything in the suite was perfect and ready for us to enjoy our stay. Very quiet location with a beautiful garden to enjoy your morning coffee! The air conditioning was a bonus as it has been a warm week! Highly recommend!

A fantastic location, short drive to anywhere in Victoria. Cathy is an amazing host, with attention to every detail and always helpful and quick to respond to any questions. The suite is immaculate and bright with lovely large windows. Everything you need for an extended stay, peaceful and quiet with beautiful gardens and patio for eating or lounging. Our first choice for a stay as we have been here several times.
5.0
This is an excellent location, very private in a quiet, heavily wooded neighbourhood, beautiful gardens and easy access to a shopping centre. The unit is very comfortable with well appointed kitchen. The host Cathy is very friendly and attentive, our coffee grinder did not work and it was replaced the same day! Our second stay was as enjoyable as or first and we look forward to another stay soon. Thanks Cathy.

A slice of heaven. In addition to the suite having everything you could need for an away from home stay - it faces on a miniature lush, exquisitely tended and quiet garden. Our host was terrific- available and helpful with any questions or requests. The suite is within a pleasant walk or short drive of many Victoria sights and scenes. Highly recommend.

Book this suite! From the impeccable design where the hosts have thought of everything to the glorious sunken garden and terrace just outside your door we felt so fortunate to have had the opportunity to stay here :) Sparkling clean, spacious modern design, and blooming camellias for the hummingbirds! Located on a quiet and beautiful residential street, but all that we hoped to see and do felt easily accessible.
Thanks Cathie and Ron!

A very enjoyable stay. A factor for me was the clear guidelines regarding Covid 19 protocols, along with no smoking, children or pets. There is public transportation but a car would be preferable. I definitely hope to return again!
