      Private large up to 3 bedrooms waterfront suite, pet friendly

      Located in the marina district of a quiet executive neighbourhood, this waterfront 1,800 sq ft, 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom tidal oceanfront suite overlooks a national migratory bird estuary and is a great base for seeing all of the attractions of the peninsula and Victoria.
      As you enter through your private entrance, there is a spacious living area with 42” cable and wifi TV. The garden queen bedroom is on the left. From there you pass the ocean view queen bedroom onto the open design kitchen, dining area, bathroom and second TV area that overlooks a private 600’ covered patio with views into the 1/2 acre woodlands and onto views of the waterfront. We provide linens, towels, soaps, shampoos and some teas and coffee.

      There is an option for an 3rd bedroom off the suite for an additional charge.

      Shops and restaurants in Sidney is less than a 5 minute car ride or walk thru the National Park, nature parks and flat trails to town. Major attractions are close including Butchard Gardens. Sidney is known for great events and shows including Thursday night street summer markets, Weekend concerts on the beach, glass beach and the many independent shops. Minutes from the BC ferry, USA ferry and Victoria airport.

      Please talk to us about bringing your pet as we welcome the whole gang!

      Scott, Meredith and the boys welcome you to come and relax and enjoy the island from the Tsehum harbour.

      We thoroughly enjoyed sipping our morning tea while watching the variety of birds and changing shoreline . This was a peaceful retreat to spend the holidays close to family. The hosts were very friendly and the location near Sidney and the ferry was ideal. The space itself was clean and beautiful. I would definitely recommend this property to a friend!

      Read the listing carefully!!
      My family were unhappy with this place, and decided to pack and leave instead of staying for our whole holiday. We were woken up by running toddlers in the house in which this place was. My fault for not realizing this is not a whole place, but the grounf floor of a family home with young children. Lesson learned.

      Comfortable Place
      We had a fairly comfortable stay. We really enjoyed sitting out in the covered patio. Scott was great to deal with. It has a beautiful view. The only complaint was a noisy child running back and forth, dropping things and crying for an hour on our last night. We were woken up at 7 a.m. Sunday morning so we listened to that for 2 hours until we checked out. We would have liked a heads up about that! Otherwise, it was great.

      June 2023 Four Day Stay
      My family (husband, son, daughter-in-law, daughter and son-in-law) all stayed at this lovely home. Our experience started off great, as the hosts allowed us to leave our luggage before check-in. Meredith & Scott left us a sweet welcome message with a bottle of local cider for us to enjoy. Our hosts graciously allowed us to have our extended family members over for visits; our large family were in the area attending a family wedding. Parking was a premium in this cul de sac. Meredith and Scott were aware we were visiting for our son's wedding, and sent a best wishes message, which was very thoughtful of them. This VRBO is located in a very nice area, in a quiet neighbourhood, close to the Victoria airport. We found the access to the water to be a lovely little area to enjoy the birds and warm weather. There are two fridges in the suite, with two areas for guests to gather to eat and to play games. A washer and dryer are available with a small amount of soap provided. There was plenty of room for three couples. Kitchen supplies/dishes are also available. The beds were comfortable as well. I would recommend this vacation rental.
