Guesthouse vacation rentals in Gulf Islands

Perfect spot for a nights stay on Bowen. Very quaint little cottage equipped with all you need for the night. Comfy linens, great coffee set up and a nice little gas fireplace on the deck. Shared bathroom with the main house which is made very comfortable. 2 very cute chickens and some kitty’s. Catherine is responsive and accommodating.

Our stay at Sheila’s place was absolutely wonderful – the best Airbnb experience we’ve had so far. Sheila welcomed us personally and gave us a warm tour of the property, making us feel right at home. The apartment had helpful notes throughout, which made everything easy to use. The area is incredibly peaceful – we regularly saw deer, which added to the charm. The highlight was the terrace by the water, perfect for campfires or simply enjoying the view. With some luck, you might spot seals, otters, or eagles. The small cottage is practically equipped – we found every kitchen utensil we needed. There’s only a portable stovetop inside, but the brand-new gas grill on the terrace worked perfectly for cooking. Sheila also provided complimentary snacks and soft drinks, and beer and wine were available for purchase. A well-stocked supermarket is just 4 km away. Thank you, Sheila and your husband, for your outstanding hospitality – it was a truly special stay!

We loved our stay here so much that we extended our trip a few more days! Great spot, friendly hosts, spacious and beautiful accommodations, and easy checkout when we sadly left. Julie went above and beyond to help us solve a problem we had before we even got there. The list of recommendations for things to do and places to dine was perfect. They even let us raid their strawberry patch! Lovely, lovely place!

This is a true Guest House experience. Hans and Denise were just incredible hosts. Really thoughtful and personal. The location is top notch, and the cabin is perfect. 10/10. Can’t fault it.

Had an amazing stay- feel like Lana’s boat is the essence of air bnb; stands out as something you can’t get elsewhere and will definitely be one of our more memorable stays. Only shame was that we couldn’t stay for longer!

We had a wonderful stay at Chantal and Alex’s property! They’d thought of every detail to help us and our dog feel welcome. Would recommend this spot for a tranquil coastal getaway and an opportunity to relax and feel looked after!

Truly a lovely place and a kind, gracious host. We absolutely loved it and could have stayed much longer -- beautiful, cozy, peaceful spot.

Absolutely loved Robin’s cabin. Such a beautiful relaxing space. She has everything set up so perfectly. Only wish we could have spent more time there. We will be back for sure.

Jenny and Doug’s cabin was truly magical! Our 3-year-old thought it was her own club house! Seeing the view from the kitchen and living room was delightful. We saw many deer! The bedroom was so cozy with lots of blankets. Everything was perfectly laid out with lots of thoughtful storage space to store items. It had a nice roomy kitchen and Jenny leaving some food items (milk, eggs, bread, a baked good, tonic water etc.) to get us through the night and morning was so thoughtful and really helped! We loved the BBQ and deck to have our family meals on. The front yard was a lovely additional space for us to hangout in. As others have mentioned, Jenny’s baked items hand delivered every morning was so lovely and delicious!! The cabin is located near the main village so it was easy and fast to get to and from the ferry dock.

Beautiful home in a fantastic location. Loved the stunning view and peaceful atmosphere but still easy access to the citing of the beauty of the island. Candice and husband was a great host, very responsive and helpful.

Stay for the view! I cannot put into words how perfect this view is. The cottage was nice and clean. Comfortable bed. Adorable decor. Hot tub was well maintained and so nice to sit in for sunset. Host even provided a great kitchen area that was shared with other renters and provided everything you could possibly need to prepare meals. It is not private, because it is a shared space, with a shared bathroom, but even when there were others out watching the sunset with us-it never felt crowded and we didn’t have to wait for the restroom once. Host has done such a great job of making each rental have its own identity.

I stayed here with two of my girlfriends for a short trip to Vancouver. This airbnb was located in a very safe and convenient neighborhood, very walkable - we all felt very safe staying here! Airbnb was clean and exactly as described in description and photos; Jimmy was also a very responsive host whenever we had any questions - overall an excellent stay! Highly recommend!

The cottage is adorable and well equipped. Lisa and Eric are wonderful hosts!

Brian and Susie are wonderful! The little house is super cute and clean and homey! They anticipated every need before we even asked, which in my book epitomizes customer service and hospitality. You won’t be disappointed. It was awesome!

The space was comfortable, homey, and very clean. It was close enough to shopping, restaurants, and the bay, but in a quiet neighborhood. We will be staying there again when we're in the area!

Our stay at Jason and Aimee's place in Deer Park was absolutely perfect! From the moment we arrived, we were struck by how immaculately clean and incredibly comfortable everything was. It truly felt like a private, peaceful retreat. The location is ideal for exploring the area. Being so close to Olympic National Park made our daily adventures a breeze, and after long days of hiking, the hot tub was an absolute dream—the perfect way to relax and soothe tired muscles. We also loved that it was conveniently close to Port Angeles, making it easy to pop into town for delicious dinners. Jason and Aimee thought of everything; the amenities were fantastic and really enhanced our stay. We can't recommend their place highly enough and would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat!

We had a wonderful stay, and would definitely stay again. You can’t beat the location, right on the water, and very private. Even though there is a private dwelling upstairs, we didn’t hear or see anyone else during our stay. Loved that there were kayaks and paddle boards to use. Hot tub was a bonus, although we felt the weather was too hot to use it. Everything was perfect! Thanks for a great stay!

Amazing place to stay, very peaceful. Close to Langford and Victoria attractions and the heated floor in the bathroom is such a nice addition.

We really loved our stay here! So beautiful and the perfect little spot for our weekend away.

I can’t say enough good things about my stay at this charming little nook in the woods! From the moment I arrived, it felt like stepping into my grandmother’s house—warm, inviting, and filled with the kind of comfort that instantly makes you feel at home. The space was beautifully decorated, incredibly cozy, and had everything I needed to unwind and relax. But what truly made this stay unforgettable was Sarah and Lance. They are the most wonderful and thoughtful hosts, and they came through when it mattered most! When an unexpected snowstorm hit, leaving everyone stuck inside and the roads completely impassable, they went above and beyond to make sure we were safe, warm, and well taken care of. Their kindness and hospitality made all the difference, turning what could have been a stressful situation into an adventure filled with great conversation, good food, and an even deeper appreciation for this hidden gem. If you're looking for a peaceful escape—this is it!

The cottage was perfect for our family. It was extremely clean, located in a private garden setting and close to the off-street bike trail to downtown. We loved it. We would stay again!

The Bunkie offered exactly what we were looking for - a quiet retreat nestled into a wooded area, just a brief drive away from hiking, wildlife, beaches, and waterfalls. The home is clean, comfortable and the espresso machine was a real highlight. We were particularly taken with the accessibility of the home, which welcomes those with accessibility needs. No stairs and wide hall ways open travel opportunities for those who might otherwise be excluded from such experiences.

Such a lovely and spacious place to spend our downtime at. Georgia was so nice and helpful yet gave us our own space. This home has all of the amenities to ensure a comfortable stay. I would highly recommend this guest house!

If you want to explore the West Coast, Whistler, Grouse Mountain, restaurants, downtown Vancouver and mush much more! This is the perfect location! Maret and Lyle were wonderful hosts! Very helpful with tips on getting around and exploring! We will definitely miss this piece of paradise! Thanks for sharing!
