Spacious, well equipped, great location, outstanding host
The unit exceeded our expectations. Well equipped kitchen with lots of cabinets and counter space. My wife cooked each night we were there. Lot of space overall. Full size washer and dryer. Large walk-in shower plus soaking tub. Lots of counter space in full bath. Also a separate half bath. Bedroom on 2nd floor so if stairs are an issue this isn't for you. However, Bedroom is good size. Lot of closet space and drawer space. Comfortable bed. Sleeper sofa in living room. We had no need to use so can't comment on comfort. Enjoyed the back deck with view of water and nice fresh air flow. Location is easy to get to from Departure Bay where ferry comes in and is close to downtown. Also easy access to Highway 19 and 19A. Parking on street in front. Best part is the host. Responsive, accessible, friendly and caring about guests. Answered our questions no matter how silly they might have been promptly. Highly recommend. Hope you enjoy staying there as much as we did.

Had an amazing stay
Place was great! I loved the kitchen, it had tons of cooking options (pots, pans, slow cooker, etc.) and the place was so clean. It is in a great location to stores and the street is not very busy. We enjoyed sitting out back on the patio every night where you get a bit of a view of the water. Host was great, friendly, and quick to respond. Really glad we chose this place to stay for the week :)

Perfect home away from home
This home is very clean and offers everything you need in the kitchen. The bed upstairs is comfortable. Very relaxing soaker tub and beautiful shower. The location was good for quick access to the hwy to get us off on all of our beach and hiking adventures. We even hosted our local family members for lunch. Overall it was perfect. Brittany was very responsive and had everything ready for easy access. Thank you Brittany!

Perfect location, great space, kind host
We really enjoyed our stay at Brittany's place! She lives right next door and introduced herself to make sure we were settled and comfortable, was helpful and easy to communicate with throughout our stay. The place is clean and spacious, and very private. We never needed to drive anywhere downtown, the sea walk path is one block down the road from the house and made it easy to walk to town for food and coffee whenever. Loved the big soaker bathtub and the large kitchen! Thanks Brittany!

Property very clean and well located. Very close to seawall walk, marina and large park with kids' playground. Well equipped with 1.5 baths, air conditioning- essential in August- a great kitchen, good linens and an excellent bed. Partial views of marina and open water. On the whole, this is a lovely property. Deborah

Great location, fantastic host, everything as advertised
Everything was exactly as it is listed, and as others have commented. The house was very clean, well appointed with everything you would need, and well located just a block from the water, with easy walking/bike access to downtown Nanaimo via the waterfront trail. Most importantly, Brittany (host) was a very timely, clear and responsive with her communications, and just very easy to chat with overall. We enjoyed our stay very much! Thank you, Brittany!

Amazing VRBO to call home for 3 nights. The space is just as you see in the pics. Great to have the bedroom on second floor with double closets and an ensuite bathroom as well. Location was prime! We were able to access Nanaimo by foot in less then 15 min. Just a short and lovely walk along the seawall to get just about anywhere downtown for groceries, restaurants, coffee shops and shopping! We would definitely stay again! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. Kathy and Pam

Great Location
This place is close to everything and has everything you could need! A short block to the harbour front and a 15 minute walk to downtown. We walked it just about every day, sometimes twice to go for brunch or dinner instead of driving and finding parking. It’s also not far from shopping centres, maybe a 10 minute drive. The condo itself was very clean, the heated bathroom floors were a really nice touch (I hate cold feet!), well stocked for linens and kitchen items. So light and bright inside and I can’t say enough good things about it. The host was very easy to get a hold of for anything we needed. If we come back to the island, this is definitely on my short list to come back to!!!
