Kelowna Little Island has a lot to recommend it. Greg and Estella were very welcoming, and we really appreciated them finding a spot for us to store our bikes. The location was wonderful; it was just a 20 minute walk to downtown, and the bike ride to a grocery store and liquor store was quick and stress free on Kelowna's wonderful bike route system. The creek running along 2 sides of the property is very attractive, and if the weather had been a bit warmer we would have enjoyed having our morning coffee on the little balcony. I did enjoy a beer on the provided patio furniture one day when the weather finally warmed up. Prospective renters should be aware, however, that the property is on a busy street, so the reality isn't quite as tranquil as the pictures suggest. We also really appreciated how well the kitchen was equipped. We have stayed in several short-term rentals, and this one was easily the best equipped. Even thinking to put a package of Band-Aids in the medicine chest was a thoughtful touch.

We had only one complaint, and unfortunately it was serious enough that it is difficult to give the property a glowing review. The property is a house that has been divided into three separate suites, the other two which appear to be rented to long-term tenants. The other tenants were quite responsible, but unfortunately the building has NO soundproofing at all, so normal voiced talking, low volume TV/music, and even coughing, made its way into our suite. At one point we both thought the other one had turned on a radio, but it was the tenant next door. Worse yet, one of the tenants was a real night owl, so his TV was on all hours of the night. Fortunately the suite's bathroom was between our bedrooms and the common wall, so we only heard the TV when in the bathroom, but it was sobering to hear it during a middle-of-the-night bathroom break.
