Fitness-friendly holiday rentals in West End, Vancouver

My girlfriend and I stayed here for a girls weekend. The layout of the unit, the location, the decor and bathrooms were all great. Ubers were easy to get to and from the unit, and it made for a great homebase for us. My only gripe, if I had to find one was the fact that we needed to throw away our own trash at the end of our stay. The trash receptacles are all the way on the first floor behind several doors and a few long corridors, and because our flight was at 8am, we had to account for an extra 20 minutes to bring the trash down, bring our keys back up to the unit, and then head out. Otherwise, the views, location and comfort of the unit made for an excellent first visit in Vancouver.

Ellen was incredibly welcoming and friendly, and kindly let us drop our bags in the room ahead of check-in, which was a huge help. Communication with Chao was always quick and responsive. The space itself exceeded our expectations. It was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up. My family was visiting from Brazil and during the stay they even referred to it as “home,” which says a lot about how cozy it felt. We especially loved the pullout couch, super comfy! Location is excellent. Highly recommend!

We had amazing stay at this loft apartment. We felt right at home the moment we stepped through the front door. After a long drive from the Rockies down to Vancouver, it was so nice to be welcomed with a clean, comfortable and spacious apartment. THE BED WAS SO COMFY! We were so, so happy that the last few days of our trip was in such a comfortable bed…I kind of wanted to ship it back home so I could keep it😂 but all jokes aside, we couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Shylo was super responsive and helpful. I was on the lookout for a face wash that isn’t sold in the UK and Shylo was quick to send me a list of shops that were all within walking distance from the apartment for me to pick it up. We really hope to come back one day.

Incredibly responsive. Accommodated our early check in request. Proactive and detailed check in description. Central location. Easy access to everything.

Really liked my stay, host always responded and checked in, nice apartment very clean. Wish location was closer to shops and food ect, too many homeless people close to the location so weary of that but besides that I enjoyed my stay nice stay for 1-3 days. Clear instructions when checking in and out. I would give it 4.5/5 very enjoyable

This was our first visit to Vancouver and we wanted a place that was walkable since we decided not to rent a car. It was an easy trip from the airport via the Canada Line with only an 8 minute walk to the Airbnb. When we arrived, check in was exactly as was stated in the check-in instructions. It was warm in Vancouver during our visit so the space was a bit stuffy but the air conditioner located in the living area space quickly brought down the temperature anytime we needed it. We also appreciated the fan! The space was clean and comfortable and we always had a great night’s rest at the end of a busy day of walking. Absolutely great location and would definitely stay again! Thank you, we loved your city!

This apartment is in an excellent location within walking distance of great restaurants, shopping, and waterfront. Derek is an excellent host - me met us at the apartment late in the evening after our incoming flight was delayed 3 hours. Throughout our stay, he touched base to see if we had any questions and to make sure we were enjoying our trip. Apartment was modern, clean, and had everything one needs to feel like home. Highly recommend!

Fantastic view! Had a great stay. A lot of popular locations are easily accessible by public transportation or a quick uber. Hosts provided recommendations for coffee shops and food nearby and responded quickly to all questions.

Great Airbnb. Really lovely hosts that were always happy to help. Clean and tidy.

Davis place is clean and tidy. It is walkable to Chinatown attractions. It is also conveniently located beside a Skytrain station and a big Asian supermarket.

Fantastic place in a great location

The location was perfect! It was safe neighborhood and had easy access to all the great restaurants and shops in town. And the balcony was a bonus!

Lovely accommodation with amenities and facilities! Only shame was it was quite noisy at night.

Ideal for what we were looking for and very comfortable beds!

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.

Wonderful stay! Clean, well appointed, close to everything. Ben was a lovely host. We would choose to stay here again.

Demitri and Jessica’s place was by far the best Airbnb I’ve stayed at! It was in a friendly and quiet neighborhood. 3 min walk to supermarket, 2 min walk to the bus stop, and 10 min drive to downtown Vancouver. Inside their home, you’ve got everything you could think of. The kitchen was fully equipped (I’m talking about different types of coffee maker etc). The interior was very spacious and comfortable for 4 adults. I especially love the thoughtful instructions placed around the house - which saved me time from searching for how things work. Demitri and Jessica put in so much effort running this place. I got multiple messages from them during my stay to make sure our stay was ok. I would 100% recommend staying at their place!

Yuan’s place was stellar and we felt like we were in a hotel. I appreciate Yuan’s responsiveness, flexibility, and kindness. My family really enjoyed the home and I would absolutely stay there again and would recommend the home to family and friends. Many mahalos (thanks) Yuan!

'Hollywood North' is a bit of a misnomer - the home is much more classic, warm and comfortable, with owners who provide timely and helpful communication and assistance. 'West Coast Charm and Grace' might be more descriptive. The cost of the accommodation, though not unsubstantial, was well worth it. We were a group of 9 adults from 2 branches of one family who meet every Thanksgiving to reconnect. The bedrooms, the bathrooms, the 2 living areas, the dining room, the outdoor terrace, the swimming pool and hot tub, the gardens, and the very impressive kitchen all served to make the holiday one we will cherish. Everything you need to make the house your home was supplied - inspired us to stay in and cook as a family a vegetarian Thanksgiving dinner! In short, a beautiful home and great hosts in a lovely setting. Could not ask for more.

Beautiful Comfortable home that was the ideal place to hunker down in some very I Rainy cold weather. The house had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare good meals.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay in David and Taylor’s home. The house is very clean and immaculate. The pictures do not do it justice. We were there to celebrate our son’s wedding. The lovely and spacious home allowed our group of 6 to cook meals together and to gather indoors or outdoors in the amazing heated patio area. We also enjoyed the clean hot tub, the lovely Koi Pond and the fire pit. Because there are so many different indoor and outdoor spaces, people could quietly slip away to another area of the home if they wished a few minutes of solitude. The house’s location is perfect and provided easy access to excellent trails for daily hiking and trail running. The well-equipped gym was a bonus. David is an outstanding host. He’s very responsive and worked hard to make sure everything was perfect. He is a wonderful human. We are all so grateful that we had such an amazing family experience. We highly recommend David and Taylor’s North Vancouver home.

We had a family of 5 to stay for 10 days and Nikos’ place was perfect for us! Nikos was always highly responsive and respectful and kind, no matter what we requested. The house is beautiful, well appointed, and very comfortable and clean. No complaints at all. It was nice to be able to walk to the local grocery store and cafe and bakery, and the location near campus was ideal for spending time with our daughter. We very much hope to stay here again when we return next year. Very highly recommended. 😊

Super responsive communication from the host. Home was very much as described in the photos - and we were pleased and comfortable here. The interior garden area is really peaceful. Will look forward to staying again.

The pictures really don’t do justice to how perfect the view is here- it is amazing!! We saw humpback whales jumping not even 200 yards from the deck, truly amazing! Vahid is also a very great and communicative host. He made sure to let us know when wildlife was in the vicinity. Highly recommend a stay here!
