A cozy get away in Salt Spring
It was a great time away, when we needed a place to stay while going to a wedding, the own owners were nice and helpful with whatever we needed at any time of the day. Will come for sure in the future

Relaxing
Great quiet location. 6 minutes outside of Ganges. Steep dark hill. Glad I did in the daylight first.
Cozy place for me and my girlfriend during our weekend island trip. It's a great place to stay if you want to explore the island as its only a couple minutes away from the main town area. The owners were very friendly and checked up on us when we saw them. Would definitely come back here if we visit Salt Spring Island again

Lovely Studio in the Trees
We enjoyed a delightful week at the modern studio. The apartment is bright, clean and well appointed. The hosts were exceptional and inviting, making sure we had what we needed during our stay.
The location offers excellent access to nearby Ganges -- with a seven minute drive -- but feels private and isolated (and VERY quiet) in its forested location up the mountain.
We would definitely stay here, again.

Sweet Suite to Stay in the Forest
A lovely, serene, secluded place to relax, and to use as a base for our adventures around the Island.
The owners (live in the home next door) are quiet, respectful and very accommodating. Fully equipped kitchen if you want to stay in, though Saltspring does have many quality and eccletic eateries (we enjoyed Rock Salt restaurant at the Fulford harbour). Saturday market is terrific - so is Ruckles Park. Del Vecchio is superb for Italian eating/take-home pasta, sauces, olive oils. So much more to explore and enjoy!

Great place to stay!
I really enjoyed my stay here at this very cozy studio. The area was quiet and peaceful and it had everything I needed. I was able to cook breakfast every morning and have coffee which is very important to me to have that balance from eating out too much. It was only an 8 min drive from the Ganges which was extremely convenient for me. Mostly all the places I ended up exploring (from north of the island to south) were really only a 15-20min drive away. Though I didn't see the lovely hosts when I first got in, they made sure to thank me and say good bye before I left. Would absolutely stay here again when I come back.
Really enjoyed my stay at Amrita and Allan’s place! They were very welcoming and thoughtful about the details of their place, with lots of coffee and kitchen supplies, an induction stove top (that got me hooked on getting one at home!) and even a bowl of fruit for guests :)
The place had a breezy feeling, with big windows and an open space, so it was very comfortable for a few days stay. The bed and linens were comfortable too.
Amrita was especially considerate, checking in to make sure everything was okay.
It was my first time on Salt Spring and I didn’t expect the hills (!), so definitely recommend to have a car to get around from their place.
This was my first time using Expedia/Vrbo for booking a private residence, so I wasn’t sure about how to communicate with the hosts in advance. I ended up emailing Allan, and he was very responsive, but perhaps having those instructions somewhere for guests on the booking page would be helpful.
Thank you, Amrita and Allan! :)

The LOVELIEST modern studio
Allan and his wife are some of the loveliest people we have encountered. They greeted us upon arrival and were very responsive the moment we landed on Salt Springs Island. The studio is perfect for two people , spacious with lots of closet space which is so important if you travel with many outfits :)
VERY CLEAN! and so close to Ganges which has some cute shops and restaurants you will definitely explore. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR A BEAUTIFUL STAY !

Beautiful forest getaway
Amrita and Allan were lovely hosts! The studio flat is brand new, clean and was supplied with coffee, tea and basic amenities for cooking. It is a quick drive up the hill from Ganges, and centrally located to the tourist attractions on the island. This was our first stay on Salt Spring Island and we are already looking forward to our next visit. We absolutely recommend staying here!

First time in saltspring
The place was very spacious and cozy. It was perfect to use as a home base while we explored all the places we wanted to see around the island. Also a quiet little oasis when we wanted to chill /nap for a few hours before heading out to dinner.
Amrita and Alan were very welcoming and even left us a card and bottle of wild cider because they knew it was our 1st wedding anniversary :)
Will definitely be staying here again!

A wonderful coach home gave us a home -like feeling.
The building is located in forest but there is only 7 minutes driving distance to Gange town centre. This place is very clean and quite without any insects no flyes no mosquito.

Wonderful place to stay while on Salt Spring!
We had a lovely stay at this studio while we were vacationing on Salt Spring. The hosts were very welcoming when we arrived and she showed us all that they had to offer during our stay there. From extra linens, towels, coffee, tea, cream, condiments in the fridge and your basic kitchen supplies. The bed was very comfortable and the area was very peaceful to have a relaxing stay while we were there. We would definitely stay there again in the future.
This clean modern studio is perfect for 2 people. Located on a quiet street surrounded by nature. It was a 5 minute drive from the main town (Ganges) so was conveniently located. It had everything you need to cook meals there, which we appreciated. The hosts were wonderful and helpful. We would stay there again.
