Oceanfront Cottage Galiano Island
Lovely cottage. Very peaceful and perfect for our long weekend family gathering. Andrea was really responsive and everything was extremely clean. We didn’t get lucky with the tides but really enjoyed the deck

West Coast Forested Guest Suite
This has to one of the best (if not the best) Airbnb’s I’ve stayed at! The suite and property truly exceeded our expectations and was the perfect relaxing and cozy home away from home to return to after a long day of exploring the island. The grounds of the property are stunning and very well maintained. Joanne and Tim were so hospitable, providing clear instructions on how to get there and a thorough list of local restaurants, cafes, and excursions to explore. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an extremely relaxing and zen stay on the island!

Deception Tree House-Great Views of Deception Pass
This was such a perfect place! Absolutely squeaky clean, great vibes because you’re surrounded by trees, super quiet and a great layout for us. Definitely a favorite!

Mount Tzouhalem Lookout
it's great experience and very nice host and they have all facility in suit.very great place to vacation. you can relax.

Tranquil Spa Oasis - Steps from the Beach!
One of the best Airbnbs I’ve ever stayed in! The size was perfect for our stay (4 adults for 3 nights), super nice and clean with a cute yard space and the hot tub was perfection. Walkable or a quick drive to Roberts Creek cafe, restaurant and cute shops. Absolutely loved the short walk to the beach/ocean! The hosts were very friendly, helpful and responsive. 10/10 would stay again!

East Sooke Escape
I stayed here before and decided to come again with other travelling companions. The location is beautiful. The home is a beautiful space with everything we needed, including a wonderful view. With the big windows, we could see robins building their nest under the home’s balcony while also being able to watch eagles flying by over the water. Sharon was responsive with texting even though she was away during our stay. There is a nearby small commercial space with two food trucks serving excellent food if you want a respite from cooking. We could either choose to eat there before driving out of the area for the day, or to stop off for dinner on our way back. I highly recommend Sharon’s place if you are looking for a rural oceanside getaway.

Suite by the Sea
We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Kelly’s suite by the sea! The space was even better than we expected - appears to be recently renovated with modern finishes, spotless, and incredibly comfortable. Kelly was super responsive, helpful, and genuinely accommodating throughout our stay. The location was great, I would 100% stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, hassle-free stay!

The Tangled Garden-Waterfront/Private Suite/Beach
Joan's place is a perfect retreat in Bowen Island! The unit was cozy, with a comfortable bed and couch that made it easy to relax after a day of exploring. Just a short walk to a stunning beach, and we woke up each morning to peaceful views of the garden and ocean. Truly a hidden gem!

Deep Cove Ocean View Suite
Had a fabulous time in Deep Cove and would liked to have stayed longer. The apartment was all that we needed although it would benefit from more clothes storage. Celeste communicated well via messages but a little disappointed that we didn’t get to meet in person. We loved the area and enjoyed walking the Quarry Rock and BP trails. Arms Reach and Scratch Kitchen were both excellent restaurants. We would have no hesitation in recommending to others.

Hot Tub, King Bed & EV Charger
It was a perfect night! The place is amazing!

Cozy suite with hot tub and ocean view
My partner and I stayed at Charlottes place for 3 days and loved every minute of it. The suite is so beautiful and spacious, the photos hardly do it justice! Stunning view of the ocean and sunset right from the hot tub is hard to beat. The suite was clean, cozy, and had all the amenities needed to make our stay comfortable, not to mention the gorgeous garden and patio area. Would highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway! We didn’t want to leave!

Ocean Perch Studio - Beach at your doorstep!
Esther’s home was one of the BEST places I have stayed! It was exactly as described - welcoming interior with lovely beachy accents (and an incredibly comfy bed), as well as the most amazing ocean views. If you’re lucky, you’ll get a nice little kitty visitor to keep you company :) Esther was also so wonderful to speak with. She is truly one of the loveliest people I’ve met! I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Private Oceanfront 1 Bedroom B&B
It was an absolute delight to stay at Rachel’s place. We loved watching ocean from the balcony; the little trails in the forest and Gabriola’s beauty. Rachel was a wonderful host and we would happily stay again!

Waterfront Suite @ Teach An Ghra
We had a great time staying here! It was clean, the ocean view was unbeatable, and it was located in a great location.

Salty Mountain Sweet Retreat View with Hot tub
Sweet retreat is magic. It is extremely quiet and beautiful tucked into the mountainside. Do yourself a favour and book. It's amazing. The place is incredibly clean and set up well with everything needed for cooking. They set us up with extra for our baby and it was easy to baby proof the stairs for a kid newly on the move. So happy they are dog friendly, being able to have him on the island was great. the town is very dog friendly as well. can pretty much take them anywhere. Nice trails around the house too, and right out the door. Ganges is only ten minutes away which is perfect. There are also so many cool places on the way there. The brewery is walking distance and easy to grab a few beers on the way back to the house. I can't speak highly enough about this spot. Thank you Rebecca and Mark, we will see you again hopefully sooner than later. Also a must see is the chocolate shop and get some gelato because yum!!

Deluxe Oceanfront Getaway
This is the most beautiful location, the ocean views, the early morning sunrises, outstanding.

The Mushroom Manor B&B and Cedar Sauna
The Mushroom Manor was a lovely spot for a peaceful get away from the city! The view is absolutely breathtaking and the house was so cozy and welcoming. Would definitely recommend!

Garry Park Getaway
A very gorgeous, private location. A very short drive away to town and many hiking trails, lakes, and fun things to do. The host respected my privacy, but answered any request I had promptly. The hot tub was a wonderful thing to have at the end of a long day. I will definitely stay here again if I come back to Saltspring Island! Thank you for having me.

Ocean View in the heart of Cowichan Bay Village
Jayne's place is just as described - clean, well stocked and homey. Clear instructions made finding the place and getting in a breeze. The space is quite large and comfortable for two people. Jayne was quick and easy to communicate with. Would absolutely stay here again and would recommend for a great location in Cowichan Bay!

The Arbutus Loft- new home close to beach and golf
We had a great experience! If we were to visit BC again we would love to stay at Nancy and Aaron’s! Thank you for everything!!

West Coast living at its best in this modern suite
we had great stay at Michael's. very relaxing and Michael gave us some suggestions for trail rides. we enjoyed the Kensol tressel trail. I highly recommend it. On foot or bike.

Raven's View
I had a great stay! The listing (including the view) was just as described and Laura and Thomas were very responsive and friendly. They also had lots of great recommendations that really enhanced my stay. I would book again in a heartbeat!

Connected Hearts Home B&B on Lovely Pender Island
We had a great stay! It was a perfect spot for our group of adults, teens and kids. The kids were especially happy with all the games and loved the badminton outside. There were so many little touches that made this place perfect and you could tell the hosts had put a lot of thought into all the things you may need. I have stayed in many Airbnb’s in Europe and this was by far the best stocked with amenities I have ever encountered. It was very much appreciated! Thank you! 💕

Cedar Bluff Studio: Ocean Views, King Bed, Private
We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. James &Helga have kept place clean and private with spectacular views just like photos. They even offered us early check in without asking. The jam tastes amazing , if you are there do not miss to try it out. Our overall experience was great.
