Guesthouse vacation rentals in Salt Spring Island

We had a fantastic stay! The ocean view was breathtaking, and the home was neat, cozy, and perfectly situated in the middle of amazing wildlife. Tom and Miriam were such kind and Helpful hosts, offering thoughtful hospitality touches like homemade banana bread, cookies, and blackberry jam. They also provided us with some guidance that only local’s would know. We couldn’t have asked for better stay—highly recommend!

I recently stayed at a wonderful accommodation that was incredibly quiet, clean, and private. It was the perfect spot for my trip, especially since it was conveniently close to town. The peaceful environment made it easy to relax and unwind, while the cleanliness and privacy ensured a comfortable stay. Overall, it worked out really well for my needs and I would definitely consider staying there again.

We enjoyed a quite few days on the point. The property is beautiful with lots of options for accessing the water. We enjoyed staring at the strait from the hottub and looking for otters as well as plenty of other sea life post hiking nearby. Hosts are friendly and welcoming. The loft is cozy and well equipped. We will come back!

Cute cabin, perfect for the two of us to stay at. Sheila communicated quick and helped us with any of our needs! Thank you Sheila!

Kelley's place is clean, spacious, and in a great location. Kelley herself is warm, welcoming, and super-responsive. As others have noted, the breakfasts are epic! We particularly enjoyed the addictive granola and the savory Dutch baby (pancake, that is!). We arrived on the island on the day's last ferry, and Kelley kindly stayed up to welcome us; throughout our stay she was readily available for questions or recommendations. The cottage is an easy five minute walk from town, and is quiet despite being close to a main road. One downside, windows on both sides of the home overlook parking areas, so if a view is important, this is not the place for you! This wasn't an issue for us, and we would happily stay there again. Thank you Kelley for helping to make our trip an enjoyable one! Her place really is a home away from home.

This is our second time staying. This place is a beautiful above garage suite. It feels like you’re in the tree tops. Comfortable beds, kitchen well equipped for all we needed. Lovely quiet area where the only outdoor noise were birds and the frogs singing us to sleep. Near some trails that can take you down to the ocean. Perfect place for us. Thanks for hosting.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this enchanting cottage on Orcas Island. The owners have done an exceptional job in creating a warm and inviting space that seamlessly blends into the natural beauty of the surroundings. The kitchen was well-stocked, and the comfortable bed ensured a restful night's sleep. But what truly made this stay special was the absolute love and care that Meg and Bob have put into building this very special cottage.

Wonderful location for our weekend in Friday Harbor! Walkable and pet friendly, and Debbie kindly left the lights on for us to make a late night check-in easy! Highly recommend this quiet guest cottage and would stay again!

I had a great week at this place. It was clean, comfortable, and in a perfect location. The hosts were friendly and welcoming. I’d love to come back.

If you want the perfect getaway look no further! This absolutely beautiful cottage is the ideal place to see everything on Salt Spring. So close to the ferry and the beach is steps away. Beautifully decorated, with all of the amenities….but the view of the ocean from bed is the most wonderful thing. Thanks for the fantastic weekend.

Our stay was so wonderful. The suite was so cute and clean. The view from the balcony was breathtaking. There were tons of hummingbirds which was on the balcony which was amazing for me as I had never seen them up close. The property is rustic and beautiful and the suite is on the side and was nice and private. The hosts were super responsive and helpful. Definitely recommend.

Anne and her husband were so friendly, and just generally went above and beyond to make us feel special and welcomed. We were greeted with a bottle of homemade apple cider from the apples in their orchard, chocolate chip cookies, a sourdough loaf, fresh strawberries, and other goodies stocked in the fridge. The space was clean and thoughtfully decorated, paying homage to the natural beauty of the area. Anne also checked in on the second day to make sure I didn’t need anything, and she made suggestions of events to attend during the long weekend. Thank you both for a wonderful weekend!

Our family of 3 enjoyed our 5 day stay at Michelle and Blair’s Airbnb. It was cozy and well equipped. It was in a very quiet and peaceful setting amongst the trees. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was a good size and the price reasonable. We had everything we needed for a wonderful stay on Saltspring.

We really enjoyed our stay! The house is immaculate and had everything we could wish for (and more)! We felt right at home and there was a wonderful walk to a beautiful waterfalls just down the lane. We will definitely recommend Flatt on Platt to our friends and family!

I had a wonderful stay! everything was super comfortable, and Marlene’s hospitality and attention to detail were truly impressive. I was especially touched by the fresh eggs such a lovely gesture and they were delicious! Thank you so much! I’d definitely love to come back!

Aprille went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable- from a fresh baked good waiting on the counter to fresh-cut flowers to thoughtfully stocking the kitchen and bathroom with just what we needed and nothing more. The space was clean, comfortable and quiet. We would definitely stay there again!

Tawny’s place was an absolutely amazing stay! The experience of staying at this beautiful place was absolutely magical and we had the best time. Not only was the place so cozy, tidy and had all the amenities we needed, but we were welcomed so warmly. Tawny is an excellent host who is so communicative and friendly. Would highly recommend this stay to anyone who is interested, it’s one of a kind and an absolute gem!

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!

Great place to stay. Very clean and a comfortable home away from home for our week of vacation. Close to lots of hiking and a great location to stage our trips to various parts of the Island. And a short drive to Langford for food or other supplies. Lance and Amber were very quick to respond to any queries.

Staying at this wonderful place was an unforgettable experience. We had the privilege of meeting Roy and Jane in person, and they are truly amazing warm, genuine, and incredibly thoughtful hosts. Their kindness and hospitality made us feel instantly at home. The house itself is stunning. It’s brand new and meticulously decorated with a perfect blend of comfort and style. Every detail, from the furnishings to the layout, shows how much care and attention they’ve put into creating a beautiful and welcoming space. The location is pure tranquility. Surrounded by nature, it offers peace and quiet that’s hard to find these days. Whether we were relaxing on the deck or just enjoying the stillness, it felt like a true escape from the busy world. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Five stars all the way highly recommended, and we can’t wait to return!

Very nice and cozy place, and check in and check out was seamless. Would recommend!

It was a perfect stay. The unit was exactly as described, immaculate, comfortable bed. We appreciated using the washing machine and dryer! Thanks again for an excellent AirBNB! Joyce

Carrie’s place was fantastic! It was very clean, comfortable and well-equipped. We had everything we needed and the place had a lovely, quiet private area with a wonderful hot tub. There are many great hiking trails within 10-20 minutes of this location.

We had such a great stay. It was a lovely place and beautiful property. Walking distance to the local pub and had pet friendly linens which meant we could snuggle on the bed with our dog. We’ll definitely come back.
