Magnificent Vacation in Victoria

Wow, what a fun vacation! It was so nice to have a “home base” to relax, sleep in and watch the sunset. My first day here I purchased a growler (a.k.a. big beer jug) of a seasonal beer at Canoe. Each night I relaxed in the suite watching the water with a beer.

Everything is so convenient. I purchased a bus pass for $5.00 and had unlimited access for the entire day. The cost of the pass is the same you would pay for a round trip. If you plan on taking adventures outside of the city using public transit this is the way to go. It’s a great way to hop on and off without needing a transfer.

The bathtub is nice and very deep than what I’ve seen the States. I ended up taking baths to soak my feet after a full day exploring the city by foot.

Victoria is a wonderful city to explore and I felt very safe traveling on my own. I would definitely recommend staying in Maureen’s suite to future travelers.

An absolutely wonderful stay

Our stay here an absolute delight! Maureen is simply fantastic and made us feel ever so welcome from the very start!

There is nothing I can think of not provided - luxurious linens (and a super comfy bed), quality bathroom products, tableware and gourmet cookery appliances - the list truly goes on and on.

If you can pull yourself away from gazing out the windows at the view of the water, boats and kayakers - then it's only a couple of minutes’ walk to most downtown attractions/shops and bus routes.

You can take a stroll to the upscale Market on Yates Street for an incredible selection of 'goodies' from their deli - drive or catch the bus on the corner to large supermarkets not ten minutes away - come home and 'create' in the extremely well equipped kitchen.

It's so beautiful and relaxing going for scenic waterfront walks in the immediate area and exploring quaint shopping streets, Chinatown, Museums….

Maureen also provides a state of the art desktop computer, Wi-Fi, stereo sound system, TV, DVD films, books to read, tourist info, and washer/dryer. You literally want for nothing when staying here.

It's such a lovely feeling going ‘out and about' all the while knowing this lovely condo awaits one on returning. It’s very difficult to adequately mention everything as there is so much more I could compliment and comment on.

Maureen’s thoughtfulness and care are simply evident everywhere!

I truly and whole heartedly can recommend staying here if you are vacationing in Victoria.

The condo is such a wonderful, warm, and inviting space! A lovely place to relax in and come back to after a day of enjoying Victoria. Maureen was most helpful in the reservation process and provided us with information on nice restaurants and things to do in the area. A great location that we will definitely return to.
