Cottage rentals with a hot tub

Pool & hot-tub, Peaceful & Immaculate
This is the second time we have stayed in this cottage community and will be staying again. The neighbourhood is super organized and spic and span. Thanks Judy, We had a blast

#slowtravel Wood-fired Hot tub, Cold Plunge, Beach
This place is really special and exactly as it looks in the photos (but better in person!) We enjoyed having breakfast on the terrace in the mornings, and listening to the local birds in the trees that surround the cabin. The view from the terrace is really magnificent!! We also indulged in the wood fired hot tub to make the most out of the beautiful forest surroundings. This stay was really one to remember, and I'm already dreaming about coming back another time. The roadside parking space had plenty of room for one car, two vehicles would be a tight squeeze.

Sunshine Coast Cottage
Our group of seven absolutely loved Danoosh’s place! Lots of amenities, short drive to town, private space, GREAT beds, lots of towels and flip flops for the hot tub! Right off the highway, so quite a lot of road noise (mostly during the day), but it didn’t bother our group at all - just something to be aware of if you’re sensitive to it. We absolutely loved playing badminton in the yard! Would definitely recommend Danoosh’s place.

The Cottage
Had such a great time in this beautiful little cottage, they have everything you need and more! We are eager to come back and can’t wait to explore more of the astonishing surrounding area. Thanks so much for your hospitality Molly and Tony!

Gibsons Beach House
We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful home with two families and young children. The location cannot be beat - a few minute walk to the centre of town and right on the ocean. The home itself was comfortable and spacious and had everything we needed. Corry was extremely quick to respond to a couple of questions we had when we arrived. We would highly recommend for anyone visiting Gibsons, with or without kids.

Impeccable Oceanside Village Retreat!
Very great place to stay for vacation. A LOT of attractions around Parksville. The host is very responsive and friendly and gave lots of suggestions. Great place!

Starfish Cottage
An awesome cottage with everything you need , great area, clean well equipped. We loved it!

Seabreeze Cottage - Perfect holiday retreat!
We had a wonderful vacation at Judy’s Seabreeze cottage. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking basics, Saran Wrap and all the utensils you could want for cooking. We had our young children with us, and the pack and plays and sand toys made our lives much easier! The entire cottage was extremely clean and we felt safe and comfortable the whole time. I would highly recommend Seabreeze cottage to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway!

636 Beach Av Retreat Gibsons BC V0N1V9 H053977232
Everything was laid out really good and was a beautiful place to stay !

Cottage 2: overlooking Silva Bay!
We had a great long weekend at Gloria’s cottage. The marina was beautiful to look over and the general store was convenient for basics. The staff were friendly and very helpful for recommendations around the island.

Peaceful, immaculate and fully equipped!
Absolutely wonderful! The place is nestled in its own little apot of heaven. We were able to go on walks every day seeing the gorgeous wildlife all around us. It was definitely hard to leave when our time was over! 10/10 would recommend

Karen’s Cottage
Karen’s place was perfect for our large family. We were perfectly situated to get to amenities and to head out on day trips. It was easy to find and easy to check in. Karen and Mary were super responsive to messages. The space is quirky and charming. The upstairs space worked perfect for our boys, who greatly enjoyed their own space that included a tv and their own beds! It definitely would be difficult to access the upstairs for someone with mobility issues, the stairs are very steep. The steps have rugged carpet to make it easier and avoid slipping. The games cupboard and lawn ladder golf games were greatly appreciated. The kitchen had everything we needed, and extra towels came in handy for beach days. We were very busy during the days so did not get to spend a whole lot of time in the backyard, but it was lovely and much larger than I had anticipated. Would recommend this stay!

Comfortable cottage 1 bedroom + sofa bed in Bowser
George was an attentive and generous host, and we experienced true hospitality here. He went out of his way for us. The cottage has gardens on all sides and hummingbirds on the porch. The area is quiet and the neighbours are friendly. Make sure to visit the Deep Bay Marine Field Station, and Rathtrevor Beach at low tide. The drive to Tofino/Ucluelet area was exceptional and worth a day trip. Thanks George and Marion!

Impeccable Summer Retreat!
Judy’s place was very comfortable and well equipped. Furniture and beds were top notch. Judy arranged for us to use a neighbouring resort’s pool when hers closed for maintenance. She was a great host. We had a great time at her place and would recommend it to anyone.
Private cottage rentals

Eagleview Cottage - beach fun* forest* peaceful
Amazing stay at Myra and Ron’s place! Great place for families - the beach is very close and we appreciated the beach toys that they left for our kids to play with. The binder they created with places to go is really thorough. The place is clean and well equipped - we cooked all our dinners there and never missed anything. We stayed there 5 days and could have stayed longer! Thanks a lot!

East Creek Studio
This has been our 5th or 6th trip here and it’s always perfect! Josha and Sam are so friendly and the space is completely private. It’s the perfect get away.

Lake Front Cabin, Qualicum Beach
Beautiful, cozy, and peaceful cabin. We loved our stay and hope to be back!

Gabriola cottage with gorgeous garden near ocean
Kevan's home is thoughtfully decorated, cozy and comfortable. There is lots of seating, indoors and out making it a great place for our family to hang out together. The kitchen is fully equipped, and all appliances function well. The beds are comfortable and everyone slept well. The standout is the spectacular garden. A true oasis. We hope to have the opportunity to stay again. Lisa

Maple Sunshine Oceanfront Upper Cottage
Had a wonderful stay, our pups had a great time, just walked across the street and we were on the beach. The road in front is a dead end with more people walking on it than cars! Wonderful view out the bank of windows - even saw a Black Bear early one morning walk down the driveway. Place was well stocked and exactly what a rustic cottage should be.

Oceanside Cottage-3 bdrm with pool & hot tub
We had a great stay! Grandkids swam in the pool most every evening, and it was great to have the beach so close! Accommodations were very clean, comfortable beds, and the kitchen was well stocked with utensils needed for preparing meals and grilling. The grands loved discovering the box of toys too!

Ravenwood GH Westwood Lake/ Hot Tub BL#5030566
Hugh and Deb's place worked out great for us. We were visiting family nearby. The place was spotless, extremely clean and tidy. The hot tub was a nice bonus that we enjoyed. They were responsive hosts to any questions.

"The Guest House" on beautiful Sproat Lake!
This place is a gem! We enjoyed our stay very much. This was the cleanest place we have ever stayed in. Thanks Martin and Janis! Would love to return one day!
