Waterfront holiday rentals in Bowen Island

Amazing view, great location, quiet, private and peaceful. Loved the firepit, made for lovely evenings. Will definitely return!

Killer view, enough space for 2, great location. Anushka was very responsive. Don't want want to dine out every meal, there is a great market end of the same block. Looking to dine out casually, lots of options from 24 hr subway, several pizza joints, sushi, etc. We did not use the pool area as I prefer to swim solo, but it was large and clean. Not too many apple there end of the night. Apartment as described. Host was exceptional

Perfect location in the heart of the city. Lots to see and do within walking distance. Great hosts - quick to respond, flexible check in and they gave us suggestions on things to see and do. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed. Would stay here again.

Enjoyable stay at Krystal’s! Beautiful, modern space with everything you need and more. We arrived in the early morning hours and really appreciated the basket of snacks left on the counter for us. Quiet, had a good sleep. Comfortable beds. Walkable location to the seawall, shops, etc. Thank you Krystal & Neme

Our stay in Gastown was exceptional. The suite is within walking distance of many of Vancouver’s must see locations and the views of the harbour and North Shore mountains are second to none. The suite is an easy walk to BC Place, Rogers Arena, and the Queen Elizabeth Theatre, and clubs and restaurants are plentiful in the surrounding area. The suite itself is well laid out and exquisitely furnished. The kitchen is well-stocked for cooking, there is ample storage space for luggage, and the bedroom boasts great views and a comfortable bed. The host was friendly and attentive and easily available to answer questions. It was a fun place to play tourist in the city we grew up in, and we’d happily return for a future stay!

This location was perfect for our Vancouver vacation. The host provided clear, accurate instructions for parking and accessing the apartment, which made our arrival seamless. The space was just the right size for my wife and me—cozy, clean, and comfortable. We loved the convenience of being able to walk to everything nearby, which made exploring the city easy and enjoyable. The bedroom was very comfortable and provided a great night's rest after full days out and about. One of the highlights was definitely the stunning views from the balcony. We truly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Vancouver.

Ana is an excellent host! She was very responsive and answered all of our questions. The accommodation was located in an area that made it easy for us to get to local attractions. The unit is very clean with lots of soft fluffy towels and a well stocked kitchen. Excellent water pressure too!

Such a Beautiful peaceful location. With Spectacular views!! Any closer to the beach you would be right on it! Super quiet, the pool was great & temperature was perfect! Best of all the walks on the beach!! Highly recommend!!!!!♥️

Absolutely stunning location - saw loads of wildlife from the terrace, and an amazing view over the water. Property was also very well supplied with a super modern kitchen and ample bed and bath space. Will be back!

Great house walking distance to Jericho and Kits Beach. Very convenient home base for visiting a UBC student. Kumiko was a terrific host. We had a minor issue accessing the house when we arrived which she resolved within two minutes. Great communicator and very proactive.

We had a fantastic stay at Christina’s place! The home was clean and very well-kept, with everything we needed for a comfortable visit. Christina was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout, making the whole experience smooth and stress-free. The space itself is lovely, inviting, nicely decorated, and in a great location. The view from the living room is incredible and the sauna is a wonderful bonus. One of the most thoughtful touches was how welcoming it was for our friend’s dog, who came along. Christina even left a few dog-friendly extras that made a big difference. We’d absolutely love to stay here again. Highly recommend!

The view and private dock are worth the visit! The pics don’t do it justice. Lots of room for everyone with 4 queen beds and a basement room with 4 twin beds.

Fantastic stay at this cabin. The setting was peaceful and the cabin itself was beautiful, with easy walking access to beaches, trails, and local shops. It truly felt like one of Bowen Island’s hidden gems. Jennifer and Alan were kind, responsive, and made the experience even more enjoyable.

We loved this amazing view home in Nanaimo. It is comfortable and extremely clean. Brian is a wonderful host, very welcoming and helpful. He has gone the extra mile to make your stay memorable by having so many extras available for your enjoyment like kayaks, crab traps and even extra shoes! The home has an incredible view and water access that offers a beautiful place to relax each day. We saw orcas, humpbacks, and otters from the deck! My 4 yr old grandson loved watching the ferries and float planes. Nanaimo was so fun. We are planning on coming back and definitely want to stay at this home again.

The place and location was amazing. Everything was perfect. The outside eating area with BBQ was better than expected/realized. The entire place looked newly renovated. The bay was great - just plan your water activities there according to the tide, because at low tide there is no water. Great location travelling to Madeira Park and Sechelt or beyond. We are looking forward to returning in the future.

Such a special location -- a great starting point for exploring all of Vancouver. The SeaBus terminal is only a short walk away, which puts you downtown Vancouver, and being in North vancouver was great for outside of the city explorations. The place is cozy and thoughtful and Claire was very responsive with answers to our questions and suggestions. It took us a little while to get used to the floating component, so if you are easily seasick this might not be the place for you.

A wonderful stay that truly felt like home. Very relaxing, convenient, welcoming and comfortable—would definitely return!

Our family had a wonderful stay at Adam & Hana's place! They are indeed very friendly and helpful. A walker and cyclist's paradise, the location is so central to everything yet peaceful and quiet like in a park. Don't hesitate to book it if it's available. High recommend!

Great little spot in Vancouver. Super clean, easy access, and the parking spot was a huge plus. Very responsive host!

We stayed here for our summer break and it was wonderful to get away from the heat of Southern California. Leon was proactive and checked in on us when we first arrived. He had good detailed instructions about check-in, check-out, and local restaurants. The condo was big enough for our family of five and the views were amazing! Would definitely recommend the restaurants next door to T&T Supermarket. Great place to stay!

Iman responds immediately, which is really helpful when you are a stranger in town. Lots of local information. Really nice touches, drinks, snacks, fruit. Everything you could need and more. If I could think of anything missed, I would tell Iman privately, but genuinely I cannot think of anything, he has it all covered. Great city, top host.

Place was gorgeous, Iris was a sweet and responsive host. We will be back again 100%

Shifa's apartment in Yaletown was an ideal, central location for us to explore without having to rent a car. One secure parking spot is included if needed. We walked everywhere but also took the train, bus, water taxi, and Uber/Lyft as needed. The apartment was very clean, functional, and well-stocked. There were so many great restaurants and cafes nearby that we never cooked, but the kitchen was very functional and had basics for those who prefer cooking. We enjoyed Rodney's Oyster House, Nuba, Desi Lounge, Oshi Nori, and Aburi to Go (take-out). Choices market for groceries. The view facing the marina and David Lam Park was lovely and peaceful. There is a good amount of activity outside during the day, but the apartment is well-insulated and quiet especially at night. The south-facing windows do let in a lot of natural light so bring an eye mask for sleeping in as the bedroom has blinds but not black out drapes. Shifa always responded quickly, and I highly recommend her place!

A great place to stay in Vancouver - fantastic location, easily walkable/sea ferry/bus to lots of great locations in Vancouver. Well kept apartment, and the pool was an added bonus. It took us a minute to find the parking garage, but other than that check in and check out was very easy, and Kash was flexible with the times too. Overall an excellent stay.
