Beachfront holiday rental in Oak Bay

I stayed here with my Mom and two sisters- it was perfect! The hot tub overlooks the beach and is under a gorgeous canopy of trees that kept us dry from the rain. We had hummingbirds and quails visit us while we ate breakfast on the patio under a wisteria tree. The house is very cozy with everything you need and so many interesting things to look at. We went to Duncan and spent the day at the Farmer's Market, then had dinner just down the street, overlooking the water, while watching seals and birds fish. We are already discussing making the trip an annual event and plan to go again next year!

We had a very nice stay at the cabin. I enjoyed sitting out on the porch watching the boats in the evening twilight. It was also fun walking the peaceful beach at low tide. It was a great place to stay for a few nights while exploring Orcas Island.

The little cabin remains an absolute treasure. I first came here 17 years ago and it remains as wonderful as ever, impeccably cared for and very private. The view from the deck is breathtaking and the hammocks are a special treat!

Great place. Would be happy to go back.

Not only is this home luxurious and immaculate, it is a nourishing step back in time where everything is hand-made, lovingly curated, and generously shared. I can’t recommend this little cottage enough. And if you’re blessed enough to walk the gardens, well…delightful doesn’t even come close. I really recommend this stay for a family or anyone looking to slow down and savour a beautiful time.

we had a wonderful time staying at dauphins house, beautiful surroundings, every morning we see deers, has a nice private dock to take a dip in and private small beach, its absolutely peaceful, would highly recommend this place and amazing parking fit all my 4 trucks.

This place was absolutely gorgeous, the photos don’t do it justice. The space is beautifully appointed with everything you could need. Such a peaceful spot to relax and unwind.

My wife and I had a wonderful stay at Jennifer's quaint, characterful, cozy cottage. The location, property, and home were charming, with lovely, mature landscaping, fields of grass, water view framed by trees, and a private little beach. The antique furniture, lace curtains, and multiple vases of fresh-picked flowers and greenery all added romantic touches. The master bed was very comfortable and Jennifer kindly customized the bedding to accommodate our feather allergy. Although the property is a compound with other cottages, the setting was extremely private both indoors and out, on account of the large lot, separate access, and screening of mature trees. The wi-fi was weak, so perhaps not the ideal location for working, but perfect for a romantic getaway!

A fabulous place to stay on the waterfront in Victoria. Everything was just as the pictures and as described. It had everything you could need & amazing views. We loved being so close to Fisherman’s wharf with the restaurants and watching the seals, floatplanes, all sorts of things going on in the harbour. A great walk into the city centre too along the waterfront or to the coast in the other direction. We would definitely stay here again if coming back to Victoria.

K would definitely come back.. actually trying to book next summer for a month.

What a great spot! Nestled in the woods in a peaceful and quiet setting this place is truly one-of-a-kind. The house is very unique with lots of character that sets it apart from the usual stays. It was clean and had all we needed. Our host Gramma Rikki was exceptionally warm and welcoming. Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate, and we could not take advantage of all the outdoor spaces and amenities. We played pool, sat by the cozy fire and did some island exploring by car. All in all it was a very enjoyable and relaxing getaway despite the crummy weather. We hope to return one day and experience everything this wonderful place has to offer.

Sweet spot for a getaway, loved having the ocean within walking distance and all the amenities were a plus. Had a really easy and relaxing trip - would recommend, and will definitely return.

This was a great location to access the ferry. Beautiful sunsets and the occasional seal sighting were experienced from the spacious deck. Pender has lots to see and do.

We loved staying at Deanna’s. The resort was excellent and the kids had a blast. Lots of games in the unit, kitchen was well equipped for 2 adults and 3 kids under 12. Beach was great and when it rained, the heated indoor pool and games room was amazing!

The condo was comfy, clean, well laid out and everything was easily accessible. The location was great - private and peaceful with great restaurants all around. Walking distance to downtown Victoria and Fishermen’s wharf. The pool was a bonus especially on a hot sunny day. Super friendly people and staff.

Nice little suite. Close location to the ferry and grocery store. Clean and easy entry.

Having stayed at many Airbnbs in multiple countries, this is by far one of the best. The hosts, Vi & Duncan greeted us upon arrival and provided a wonderful tour. The gardens & views are breathtaking! The space had everything we needed and more. We appreciated the recommendations and all the hosts did to make our stay ideal. Loved the muffins! Thank you.

Beautiful place with an amazing view! We really loved staying at Dan and Sam’s place. It was so peaceful to look out at the view of the ocean and walk down to the private beach. We even saw a family of otters the first day. The kitchen has everything you need, and the shower had perfect water pressure. We loved the motorized blinds in the bedroom. The location was convenient to do a day trip in Victoria (about 45 min to an hour). There was also an awesome restaurant nearby called Wild Mountain, and tons of hiking nearby. Highly recommend for a stay in southern Vancouver Island!

What a special space! From the moment we walked in we felt right at home and could not believe how beautiful the views were! We loved sitting on the patio to start and end our days admiring the peaceful harbour. The town also had a few nice restaurant options, a delicious bakery, and cute shops to enjoy as well! We were even lucky enough to briefly meet Astrid and Stephen who were both such gems, their love of the harbour and their home is very evident! I feel lucky we were able to stay at their space during our trip to Vancouver island and wound highly recommend this home!

Great and convenient accommodation, clean, highly recommended!

We just sold a vacation property we ran for 10 years, we were anxious for a getaway where someone else did the cleaning ! The cabin was really lovely, lots of nice, thoughtful touches like handmade soap, good quality tea and coffee etc. We LOVED the record player and had such fun listening to many old faves, once we got the button sorted out for pitch hahahahah ! Made for a really good laugh. Do not disregard the warnings about the 4x4, the road is very steep and I couldn't imagine using a wagon to move my belongings from the top to the bottom. and back again. We had an SUV and were fine but I wouldn't try it in a small car. It is very peaceful here when the planes weren't overhead. It is located in a flight path, but it comes and goes. The bathroom is magical. So much thought has gone into it. Don't leave the blinds down and miss the view, no one will see you ! Really missed having a BBQ . If you have things you want to do , like the cidery, check for opening times.

A lovely, peaceful home for 4 of us to stay while visiting Victoria for the Provincial Cycling championships. Lots of space to spread out. We enjoyed a quick paddle around the lagoon on the last morning in the Kayaks. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets in nice outdoor seating area, allowing us to appreciate the wildlife from the sanctuary. Well stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. We hope to be back.

Amazing place, already planning our trip back! Comfy and cozy. We celebrated our daughter’s 3rd birthday there. Beautiful sunny dock and a perfect shady deck outside the house. 🏡 thanks for having us!! ✨🩷

Wonderful place! Private, quiet, serene location with awesome deck and access to a sweet sandy cove. The cabin was very clean, pleasingly decorated with all the amenities needed. Steve was a friendly and very responsive host who quickly got back to us when we had questions. We are already planning a return trip!
