Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Gulf Islands

Carol once again showed why she is the host we compare ALL others to. Her attention to detail and comfort for all her guests keeps us coming back time and again. Thank you, Carol, for always ensuring we have the most wonderful experience each and every time we are there! You are by far and away the best host out there! Brian and Kimberly Charest

Lovely house with amazing deck to relax and great views. Erik gave a passionate introduction at the check in that would make you want to stay for much longer. The perfect nature getaway!

Priceless views and amazing architecture are showpieces of this magnificent home that combines coziness, elegance, comfort and rustic charm. We’ve stayed at many airbnbs, but this one is a new favorite. It’s an ideal getaway for the whole family; plus it’s close to interesting hikes and restaurants. The kitchen is well stocked for eating at home. We didn’t enjoy the taste of the well water, but bought drinking water at Tru Value. Carley was very responsive and helpful throughout. We would love to come back in the summer.

Jessica was very attentive and helpful. The deck and view were an added plus as was the real fireplace.

Great place. Would be happy to go back.

Amazing place to stay overlooking Salish Sea. Spent hours looking for seals and whales in the sea. Inside is modern, clean and had everything we needed! Host was incredibly responsive and helped out with all our requests. Thanks Christine!

A beautiful cottage by the sea, with great styling and all the amenities you could ask for, all cleverly hidden away. We opened the door to a beautiful living room, perfect for late night movies, a bottle of wine in the kitchen with any appliance we needed, a spacious shower, and a bedroom with a view right into the water. The hot tub and fireplace were right outside, and the sound of the ocean crashing while relaxing couldn’t be beat. Even though we live just a few minutes up the road, we would consider doing another visit just because of how beautiful the place was and how amazing they were to work with!

The Seaflow home was so peaceful and secluded. Our family of four absolutely loves this property and enjoyed the nearby outdoor recreation opportunities. Julie’s surrounding area recommendations were awesome. Julie and her team were quick to respond to our questions and provided clear and concise instructions. We would definitely stay here again!

Wish we were staying longer! Great value compared to local area. Rebecca and her family were very welcoming and we couldn’t have wished for anymore. Stunning property, very spacious, perfect location. 5* would recommend to all. Thanks for a lovely stay. Daniel

Third time here now. A private oasis in Duncan. Close to downtown but far enough to feel away from the bustle. Next time in Duncan hopefully it will be available again! Great spot! Thank you Jane! Bryan and Gail

Great location that was very peaceful that overlooked the bay. Rooms had comfortable beds that were well maintained. We will be back.

What a wonderful place to stay! We come to Port Renfrew several times a year to get away and this has been the nicest place yet. Wonderful views for coffee in the morning and a peaceful place to escape the city. Will for sure be returning! Harley is proactive and descriptive in the instructions to get there and get in, so we felt right at home arriving and getting ourselves settled.

We enjoyed the apartment, it had everything you need for the kitchen. The location is very convenient for downtown Victoria. You can literally walk to every attraction, including the Empress Hotel, Parliament Buildings, Museum of Natural History, and restaurants all around the harbour.

THe apartment exceeded expectations. It was so spacious, sunny and with a great view of the water. The building was grand and very quiet. It was also near the town of Sidney and ferries going to multiple places. My mother and I both had a wonderful time staying here. Neighbors we met were friendly. It was lovely to sit on the balcony and watch the light change on the water and enjoy the lovely weather we had all week. We were only sorry to leave when it was time to go home!

Cozy, peaceful place perfect for couples looking to explore victoria!

I’m not being dramatic when I say this Airbnb was the best one I’ve ever stayed in! You are in for a super special place if you stay — not only is Sequim a fantastic little town (with tons of stores to stock up pre or post park trip) but this home is just magical. The private garden is stunning, we ate dinner on the chairs/table outside (covered porch) & just had such a lovely time. Cozy, clean as ever, and the hosts couldn’t have been friendlier. I genuinely felt like I was at my aunt/uncle or grandparents house - you know that feeling where you just feel “like you’re home” mid-trip… Definitely would make it my mission to come back when I’m exploring the Olympic Mountains again!! <3

Peaceful Lynn Valley retreat. Comfortable and private, fantastic location. Beautiful surroundings! 10 minute drive to Lonsdale or Mr Seymour. Great spot for adventurers or for a quiet getaway.

Great host great place

Super responsive, proactive and accommodating

Max was a very good host, his place was clean, he was responsive and it was a beautiful and spacious location.

A sharp modern glass tree house with a butterfly roof surrounded by trees - that makes for a comfortable stay & peaceful positive energy. We very much enjoyed the home and setting. Walls of glass floor to ceiling make it bright & a sense of light energy too. The landscaping is well done so that is nice on the eyes also. On our trip there happened to councide with very early morning & all day heavy machinery construction right next door, even on the Easter holiday. However that does not change my 5 star review. The place itself was excellent. The construction will be temporary + not always heavy machinery. And soon it will end. I just mention this so renters can get more certainty on what will be happening during the days they book. I highly recommend this rental it's a perfect place for 2 people and has a 2nd bed open to the main area that extra family could sleep in. We used that bed in the main room as a cozy place to read. Great master BR giant windows out to trees.

Alice’s house was beautiful inside! Very thoughtfully decorated, the tatami mats were really cool, and there was tons of space! Would definitely book again!

The place is amazing, and Billy was a great host. Every part of the property and accommodation is great. We especially enjoyed the private river access, sauna, and comfortable, well set up cabin. The space is also super flexible with lots to do, lots of places to hang out, and works for big groups. Finally, we loved how well prepared and clear things were in terms of pre-made fire places, instructions, etc. Great experience and hope to return for sure.

This is an absolutely stunning house with a gorgeous view and perfect location for visiting Salt Spring Island. We were 7 adults and 4 children, here for a weekend and it is well equipped for families. (High chair, cribs, etc.) We were able to walk into town from the house enjoying the Saturday market but the house location is private and pristine. There is a very cottage feeling to the place yet it is also large and elegant as well. A nice mix of experiences. The kitchen is well equipped with anything you could possibly want and the house in general is well supplied with books, games, and activities. It is large enough that you can wander off for some peaceful time on your own while at the same time, the living room and dining room could easily accommodate our numbers as well. We did find some of the furniture, while charming, a bit uncomfortable to sit in and the very firm mattress on the king bed was a bit too much for our aging backs, but that's a plus for some.
