Estevan/Willows house was the perfect retreat for our family during our stay in Victoria. The neighborhood is charming, offering walkable parks and convenient beach access. The house itself was spotless and well-equipped, providing everything we needed. Its location is ideal, with easy access to both downtown and UVic.

The property is on a quiet and beautiful tree-lined street, an easy walk to Willows beach or Estevan village. We (two seniors) had a wonderful week here, exploring nearby Cadboro Bay and Cattle Point as well. The house itself is a comforting and restorative place; the layout, amenities, and flow of the house works well - can't pinpoint exactly why, but it works! Finally, the hosts were wonderful - easy to communicate with, friendly, and upbeat. We hope to return. Thank you!!

This lovely home set in a gorgeous residential area is easy walking to restaurants in Estevan Village, and Willows Beach which is a beautiful beach with sand for the kiddos or sun lovers. Locals gathered on the beach or the nearby Willows Park to watch the sunset. Uplands Park a block from the house has some gorgeous greenery and walking trails where you can get lost and explore or follow the trail to where it pops you out at the Cattle Point area overlooking the bay. We were able to walk everyday and explore different routes each time, and when we felt like a different view of the ocean, walked over to the Oak Bay Marina and the Oak Bay hotel for dinner. Downtown is about 10 minutes drive away. The hosts were great and easy to contact, and we had the upper level of the house all to ourselves (there is another bedroom and bathroom downstairs that can be rented also, which we didn’t this time). The master bedroom has a king bed and the other bedroom upstairs a double. Plenty of closet space and the air conditioning was really appreciated! My family and my dog loved the amazingly private back yard full of beautiful plants and even fruit trees! We had access to the bbq and seating on the deck or under a covered patio off the house. We’ll definitely be back and would recommended this accommodation to anyone who wants to get away from the busy downtown Victoria and try something a bit quieter. Thanks Rod and Winona for a fantastic stay!

This was our second stay in this house for the same event, a one-week piano "camp" at UVic. Great location near UVic and two blocks from the water. You can walk to great restaurants nearby or cook in the well-equipped kitchen. The entire house is air conditioned but it stays cool on its own due to shade from ancient trees in the yard. Our host invited us to pick the raspberries growing in the yard. We had a wonderful time and will stay there again next year.

Fantastic location in Oak Bay a block from the beach and from restaurants and cafes. Very quiet. Well kept house with a nice yard, bbq and patio furniture. Clean and well appointed, including kitchen equipment. The combo tub/shower has high sides and is glassed in, making it difficult to use for older people or people with poor balance. A walk-in shower would have made the place perfect.

We stayed here for our daughter’s graduation from UVic. Location and amenities were perfect for our family. Appreciated the proximity to Willows Beach and Cattle Point as well as Estevan Village. Especially appreciated the back yard and dog-friendly space. Clean and bright. Great hosts! Thank you!

This home is a lovely place to spend some time. It's moments from the beach and in a quiet, beautiful neighbourhood. The kitchen is fully outfitted with everything you might need, right down to a meat thermometer and silicone basting brush. The master bedroom has ample closet space, soft bedding, and comfortable pillows. The living room has a fireplace that my cats enjoyed for hours. There are little extras throughout the house, like a magic bag and beach towels in the hall closet. The backyard is gorgeous and well cared for. The owners of the home went above and beyond to make my longer stay incredibly comfortable. They made sure everything was set up how I liked it before I got there. They were reachable and helpful. In all, it was a great stay hosted by lovely people.
