Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Saanich Core

Bay #1 house was super clean and well organized. The location is perfect for a stay on Lopez Island because it is only a few minutes drive from the village and it’s also a reasonable distance to walk. The living room and porch have amazing views of the sunset across Fisherman Bay. The house is cozy and warm. Carole let us know all of the information we needed for a great stay!

The house is exactly as described. The most beautiful views we have ever had at a rental. Bald eagles flew right past us. We had an issue with the fire alarm and Sylvia quickly sent a maintenance person to fix the issue. The only downside was the bedroom upstairs with the skylight was very bright, but waking up to the sound of waves outside more than made up for that. highly recommend.

We had a lovely, peaceful stay. It was less than a 5 minute drive to some overlooks for beautiful sunsets. The tree net was fun and unique. It was strikingly quiet! The bathhouse worked just fine, close to the cabin and clean. The shower was nice and stocked with toiletries. The cabin was a perfect place to stay while exploring San Juan Island. Close to Lime Kiln by car. It was our first time visiting and we enjoyed cozying up in the cabin after a day of hiking or exploring. The French press and coffee were a major plus! We were charmed by the island and by the cabin. I frankly loved having no cell service (true for most of SJI for me—tip to Verizon users!), it was a forced disconnect. I downloaded the Google map in advance so I could use it offline, which was helpful in navigating. Raeleen was proactive with instructions and texted to check in after our first night. Thank you so much and we hope to visit again someday! Highly recommend if you want to go off the grid and recharge!

Priceless views and amazing architecture are showpieces of this magnificent home that combines coziness, elegance, comfort and rustic charm. We’ve stayed at many airbnbs, but this one is a new favorite. It’s an ideal getaway for the whole family; plus it’s close to interesting hikes and restaurants. The kitchen is well stocked for eating at home. We didn’t enjoy the taste of the well water, but bought drinking water at Tru Value. Carley was very responsive and helpful throughout. We would love to come back in the summer.

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy home in sooke.

Nigel was a fantastic host and extremely responsive to any questions we had. The place was in great shape and in an awesome location right by the water.

Nicole’s home was beautiful and even better than the photos depicted. The location was fantastic and very serene. Nicole and her co-hosts were very responsive, gracious, and understanding. Fantastic all around, thank you so, so much!

This was the second time we stayed at the Haidaway each stay was for a full month. Clearly we love it there, lovely accommodation in a super location. We did lots of hiking and sightseeing. Five stars all the way!

This was one of the most beautiful and comfortable places we’ve stayed via Airbnb. The home is beautifully provisioned and the yard is fantastic. We loved sitting out back listening to the bubbling water and birds singing. The hosts were friendly and thoughtful. We would definitely choose again and highly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay. Billie was friendly and approachable, and so wonderful. We enjoy the clean and comfortable place, and swimming pool. The place was very close from the main shopping/restaurants area and it made our stay very enjoyable. Thank you for everything Billie!

Our family of 8 felt right at home. Everyone having a king bed was very helpful. Kitchen was very well stocked for cooking. Sean answered back any inquiries quite quickly. We highly recommend Sean’s place.

We really loved the quietness and peacefulness of the place. The layout of the house was awesome. The entertainment was top notch. We even used the gym . I would definitely recommend this place if you are with a group of friends or family gathering!

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.

Incredible stay that exceeded our expectations in all ways. Miriam was kind, prompt, and accommodated our special requests. Sad we can’t stay here again. Thank you!

Derek’s place was very clean and cozy. It was very welcoming and we felt like home when we stayed at his place. My family were very comfortable while staying there and Derek was also easy to communicate wiith. Overall we had a wonderful time.

The street was very quiet. I think there was only one or two other cabins that were being used that week, which means we had a very peaceful stay. We locked out it was also very sunny the entire week. The place was amazing with big windows, it was clean, bright and beautiful. Thank you very much Cheryl. We had a wonderful stay. Looking forward to booking with you again 🙂

Allen and Michelle are friendly and responsive hosts and make you feel welcome. The suite was a perfect size for what I needed. Quiet area and close to beaches and trails. Would book again.

Very relaxing, peaceful spot! The sauna and cold shower was a great touch, and a perfect morning refresher to get you woken up and started with your day. Zoë was an awesome host and was quick with responses throughout our stay!

We truly enjoyed staying at Quinn's place. The location was perfect. We were able to walk to the beach one evening, which was beautiful. We enjoyed the modern yet cozy design and had everything we needed and more. Also, the bed was very comfortable!

This house was magic. From the second we walked in the door until the moment we left we were blown away. Nothing compared to sitting in the living room in late afternoon with the sun coming through trees. With two of the bedroom spaces requiring ladders, accessibility is definitely a consideration, but for us this was no problem and added to the feel of being in a treehouse. The unit had absolutely everything we needed, and then some. We will definitely be back!

We had an amazing time! Ashley and Conrad’s place was incredible and the area is beautiful. We loved how everything was decorated and Ashley provided so many helpful recommendations! Would definitely stay again!

We had an amazing time staying here! The place is very well decorated and feels like home. We had no issues other than a couple pesky little ants coming out of the kitchen sink drain. From what I know, they are aware of the issue and looking into it. The TV was perfect for some big box scary movies and the local food like Floyd’s Dinner and Romeo’s were to die for!

Perfect for what we needed. Spotlessly clean, well maintained and furnished with everything needed for home-like convenience and ease. Garrett was also very responsive and friendly. Would love to stay again next time we’re in Victoria.

We enjoyed our 3 day stay at this clean and comfortable apartment. It’s in a basement so the windows are high on the walls, but there was adequate light. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for a quick breakfast before we headed out each morning. The beds were comfy, which is a big plus. We also appreciated having 2 bathrooms. Be aware if there more than 2 adults in your party (we had 4) that there was only 1 small couch for comfortable TV watching. That was really the only complaint we had and it wasn’t a big one. We would stay here again!
