Vance's Review of Lovely Property and Hosts
I truly enjoyed my stay in the lovely and comfortable studio apartment! The amenities were exceptional and the host was welcoming and accommodating. They made my stay a pleasure and provided a terrific home base from which to conduct family business and spend quality time with my loved ones. A huge thank you to Tony and Sandy for a wonderful stay. I will highly recommend this property to friends and family and plan to book it for my next visit to Sidney. Grateful, Vance

Sidney Wedding
We were in Sidney for a family wedding and decided to extend our holiday for a few more days. We were very happy with this choice as it had everything we needed and was very comfortable. It is a basement suite however there was lots of light and the cooler space was appreciated during the hot summer days. Our son also joined us for 2 nights and used the sofa hide-a-bed. We'd highly recommend this property to others.

A great spot! The suite is clean, really well equipped and beautifully located near the waterfront and all the shops and cafés of Sidney. Tony and Sandy give you your privacy but are easily reached and happy to help with anything you may need. I'd love to stay again and hope they have space when I'm next in Sidney.

Home away from home
We stayed for five nights. The suite was so comfortable and had absolutely everything we needed - comfy beds, full kitchen, laundry, and a beautiful yard. We were only a couple of blocks from the waterfront and the lovely shops on mainstreet. We had a rental car so we used Sidney as our home base and made day trips to all the different sights we wanted to take in. Also, the airport is only 10 minutes away. Thank you to our hosts, we will stay again!

Lovely Basement Studio in Sidney
We booked this studio suite for a whole month, it was very clean and had everything that we needed, full well equipped Kitchen, very nice bathroom, very comfortable queen bed with great bedding and Towels. There were even bath robes. It is a basement suite so some stairs to go down to get there but separate entrance and private. There was a good parking place for our car on the driveway. Excellent location in the middle of Sidney most places (shopping, restaurants, coffee shops etc.) are within walking distance and only a block an a half to the seaside. Very close to Victoria Airport and only 10 minutes to the ferry terminal. Tony and Sandy were great to deal with and we would definitely go back if we go to Sidney again.

Wonderful!
We have now stayed at 5 vrbo-type properties in the Sidney area in the past 4 months, and this was by far the best. It's in downtown Sidney, and within walking distance of the US ferry terminal. Tony is a great host - friendly, helpful and very responsive. The apartment has a fully equipped kitchen, a full bath, a very comfortable bed, and was honestly great value for money. For our next trip to Sidney, we will contact Tony first and hope we'll be able to stay here again. Even in January, btw, there's lots to do around here - walking, hiking and biking, oh and the choices for cider, beer and wine tasting (Farmer's Daughter or Deep Cove Winery for example) and food (The Chalet or Fickle Fig or Melinda's Biscotti for example) in Sidney are excellent. Sidney itself is a charming little town too, with lots of individual shops and very friendly locals. Can't wait to return!

Could have been better
The suite is an adequate size for two people with a large, well-equipted kitchen, decent living room, and small bedroom area. Two factors to be aware of: noise and location. The house is in the flight path of Victoria International Airport so we never slept later than 6:05 am when the first plane flew over. Also, being in the basement, one is always aware when people are in the room overhead as the sound of voices carries down. We also encountered a "mystery noise" whose origin we never determined. Sounded like a steamroller running repeatedly pver the ceiling of the suite; perhaps furniture being pushed back and forth for hours?? We were going to eat dinner in the kitchen one evening but ended up going out to a restaurant because we couldn't stand the racket above any longer. And as to the location of the suite, I knew it was at the back of the house. But I didn't realize reaching the door meant crunching down a gravel driveway at night in the dark which is not easy for someone awaiting a knee replacement.

Hi Betsy, thank you for staying at our suite in Sidney by the Sea. We are happy to hear that you appreciated our well equipped kitchen and that the suite is a nice size for the two of you. We appreciate your feedback and are always open to hearing about what might improve our property and we will definitely look at the lighting on the driveway in order to increase night visibility. Most guests comment positively on our location in Sidney. We are conveniently located close to the airport and the centre of town but we fully acknowledge that you can hear airplane noise everywhere in the Sidney area. We are sorry to hear that you were bothered by noise. We make a point of always checking in with our guests to be sure that everything is OK as we did with you. We appreciate knowing if our guests experience any problems while they are here and we will make every effort to resolve the issue. Given the Christmas holiday we may have had more activity than normal and we apologize if you were disturbed. We hope you will visit Sidney again in the future.

Relaxing 3-day getaway in delightful Sidney by the Sea!
Thanks to Tony and Sandy for their wonderful suite, in a great location - just blocks from both the heart of downtown Sidney and the waterfront. It was very clean, comfortable, spacious and inviting. I was travelling on my bicycle, and Tony was very helpful in making sure he had a place to safely store it in his garage. He was also very responsive to email questions before I arrived. Look forward to a return visit, but maybe not in the middle of winter storm season next time :)

A wonderful home from home with everything to make your stay an enjoyable one.
We had a wonderful 19 days in Tony and Sandy's apartment. So good we didn't want to go home! Everything was provided to make our stay a most comfortable one. It was very well situated close to town centre and shops, cafes and restaurants. Close to the shore line and lovely walks. Very close to the San Juan Ferry and bus stops for Victoria, Butchart Gardens and for the ferry to Vancouver and Nanaimo. A lovely kitchen to cook meals. Food shopping was easy and we were delighted with the choice of at least 3 large supermarkets. Eating out wasn't so expensive as it was in UK and plenty cafes for coffee and cake in the afternoon. Overall we had a great holiday and Tony and Sandy were lovely hosts. We will most certainly be back . On second thoughts I maybe shouldn't have written this review? I want to make sure they are not all booked up and always have space for us! But seriously we can honestly say best place ever!
