Wonderful break in a beautiful area
We’ve had such a wonderful stay here. It’s a great location with things within easy walking distance. Everything felt new and clean. We found everything we needed. It was a great base to then explore the island. Thoroughly recommend. Thank you Cindy for a lovely stay!

Fabulous Place
Was the perfect place for our family to unwind after a full day of sightseeing. The location was great. Loved our morning walks to the coffee shop each morning. There was an issue with the refrigerator before we got there and the hosts were on top of it and communicated well. Highly recommend this cute cottage.

Explore Victoria
My wife, daughter, son-in-law and myself try to do a short family vacation once a year and this year we decided we wanted to see Victoria since the last time we visited was about 25 years ago. As it turned out Cindy's VRBO was a perfect choice for us as it's located in a nice quiet neighborhood but a short drive to the various sights and activities we wanted to see.
The house was immaculate and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay, probably one of the best places we've stayed and we've stayed in quite a few VRBO's over the last several years.
Communication was excellent as Cindy was very responsive to all my questions. Overall just a wonderful experience and I highly recommend this property.

Beautiful, well equipped cottage
This is a beautiful, well equipped cottage. The location is in a very quiet neighborhood and a short drive to Gyro Beach and grocery stores. The cottage was impeccably clean and we appreciated the bottle of wine upon our arrival! The beds were comfortable and the place looks fabulous - as good or better than the on-line photos.
