We enjoyed our week stay so much! Clean and modern place and well appointed! Had everything we needed in the kitchen and bathroom. Terrific location, a nice quiet street, even saw deer on a couple of mornings that the kids loved! It truly felt like a home away from home!
Christine was the perfect hostess, friendly and with lots of tips on what we could do in the area.
We can't recommend this VRBO enough! Thank you Christine!

The place, location, host were wonderful. We enjoyed very much knowing the host. Christine was very sweet and gave us a lot of local hints for places which we enjoyed very much.
All the amenities were great and Christine made us a delicious Dutch apple cake.
I highly recommend her.
We will definitely stay at her place on our next trip.
Thank you for your warmth and hosting us.

Our visit to the island was a quick one to catch-up with extended family. Upon arrival, the place was clean, bright and welcoming. We had a small view of the ocean and mountains, which could be seen from the wonderful deck. The hosts were very nice and welcoming. Chris checked in on us to make sure we had everything. We really appreciated her kindness and thoughtfulness. I would highly recommend this place.

Spacious, clean and well-equipped suite taking up the bottom floor of a lovely house in a quiet residential neighborhood, nestled against a wooded area. Property is near restaurants and grocery stores, and is just a short drive into downtown Nanaimo.
Host is welcoming, caring, and very helpful in making suggestions for places to go, eat, etc. Christina goes the extra mile as a host. We were even gifted a Coho salmon from their catch.

The place is located in a quiet residential area, but beaches and coastal walks are still nearby and driving into town is quick and easy. Spacious and clean place. Great host who gave us tips for trips and offered us some fresh sockeye upon arrival. Delicious!

Great communication with the host and flexible with our late arrival on a late ferry. Very clean and perfect for accommodating our extra guests for a family get together.

We enjoyed many meals out on the deck with a far off view of the ocean, and magnificent sunsets 2 nights! The terraced flowers at the back of the deck, attracted hummingbirds for our entertainment.
Layout inside was excellent, kitchen well equipped, and most importantly, the mattresses were extremely comfortable!

Our 5 Star stay began at time of booking where the hosts reached out right away assuring us of our reservation. The check in was seamless and the suite was cozy and met our needs perfectly. Nicely located on a quiet neighbourhood cul de sac and was walking distance to groceries, liquor store, restaurants and a pub. Our hosts were amazing. We will be back!

Accomdation was clean and roomy. Accomodation was the ground floor of the house with a private entrance, and a private deck and BBQ. From the deck there was a view of the ocean and mountains. I did not have a car and got around by public bus which was good.
Grocery stores and bus stops were nearby.

This stay was perfect for a few nights in Nanaimo. The property was clean, booking was easy and the little personalized touches added to the experience. Location was perfectly central, made for an easy day trip up to Parksville and Nanoose bay, and very quick into downtown Nanaimo. Would 100% recommend to anyone.

We had an amazing stay at the getaway - it was extremely comfortable, in a quiet neighbourhood but really close to good beaches (like Parksville and Neck Point), and many amenities (grocery, nice bakery, parks, restaurants etc). Christine went out of her way to make us feel welcome and answer questions and help us with anything we needed. Thank you so much for opening your home to us, baking us bread :) and welcoming us to the Island!

Comfortable stay in north Nanaimo
This rental was perfect for our needs - clean, centrally located and comfortable. The kids loved the bunk beds and the added touches (cookies, restaurant recommendations and facial cleaner) were an added bonus. The unit was stocked with anything you might need for a short term stay!
Chris was easy to correspond with and communication was answered promptly. This was a lovely rental unit and in warmer weather the private patio with BBQ would be a lovely place to spend the evening watching the sun set. I wouldn’t hesitate to book this location again.
