Waterfront apartment rentals

Portofino
This apartment was perfect for our 3 night stay in Tofino. Easy to access and get into, great central location and views of the water. Exactly as described, one big room with semi-separate walking in closet. Kitchen towels, coffee and bathroom products were appreciated, as well as the bathrobes. The kitchen was fully kitted out which was great for cooking meals and the condo is right around the corner from the main grocery store. We highly recommend this place!

Waterfront city loft
I highly recommend staying at Alison’s place. It has a beautiful view of the mountains and ocean, with great local restaurants and it’s easy to get around to other parts of Vancouver. Her place is very clean and well laid out. It is a vacation in and of itself to stay in and just enjoy the accommodation! Alison was also very flexible and responsive as a host - thank you for a wonderful stay!

Apartment on the dock in Cowichan Bay
Haven’t really stayed in many airbandb’s but this was bright and cheery and spotlessly clean. Easy walk to great restaurants and our own parking spot right out our door. .

Beautiful Apartment Best Area Downtown Vancouver
We stayed for 9 nights and it was exactly what we were expecting in a city stay. The apartment had all the basics, there’s a grocery store less than one block away, the amenities were great, and the neighborhood felt quite safe too. Parking was secure but tight for my mid-sized truck but that’s to be expected in a parkade. Many thanks!

Salt Spring Waterfront
Magical!! Even more beautiful than the photos. The place was exceptionally clean and hosts very responsive. Communication excellent. I would love to come back here and just sit and enjoy the view some more.

Modern DT Yaletown Condo 2B2BA•Parking•Sleeps 6•AC
Easy access to the heart of dt Vancouver. If you’re going over for an event or conference then this location will be perfect. Easy instructions with secure parking, you’ll be happy you’ve stayed here.

Spectacular oceanview 2 bedroom in boutique hotel
A wonderful stay in an absolutely stunning location! The photos and description are perfectly accurate, and the place is wonderful to spread out relax or use as a homebase while visiting Sidney. Both bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and stocked full of amenities, and the kitchen is very functional with a great open room and beautiful balcony overlooking the water. Victoria is about a 25 minutes drive away (depending on traffic) but the suite is close to many amenities including stores, restaurants, the Victoria Airport and the ferries to Vancouver. Highly recommend and would stay here again.

★Downtown/RogersArena★✓Parking ✓Pool ✓Hot-tub ✓Gym
Me and my family really enjoyed staying at the property. It was close to everything and everyone we encountered in the building were very friendly. We also loved how close the subway and grocery stores are to the apartment.

Modern, Luxury Riverfront Rancher Home on Acreage
This is the second time we have stayed at Diane’s place and I’m sure we will be back. It is tucked away in very peaceful quiet area of hope. Right on the river which is great for a cold plunge and hot tub to warm up in after. There is a beautiful walking trail right out of the driveway that takes you to othello tunnels. Inside the house is spacious and clean. Great for cooking meals and relaxing with friends. Diane was a great host and had provided everything we needed. Highly recommend!

Full sun lake front. Private dock and hot tub
Beautiful and convenient location for our Victoria trip. Lake view and private dock was a bonus. We went during Thanksgiving so we appreciated the view and hot tub. Only complaint was the very limited cooking pans and pots

Lakehouse 1bed 1bath
Barb has been incredibly responsive all throughout. when I was stuck at the airport due to a mixup with my car rental,she stayed with me over messaging, with some really great alternative suggestions. From the freshly washed blanket on the couch, to all the snack options tailored to my preference, and the views...oh my goodness, just stunning and so peaceful! Barb just really went out of her way to ensure I had everything I needed. I was given the perfect balance of privacy with letting me know she was there for any need I had. The home was lovely and uncluttered, cozy living room with the fireplace and a spot to set up my laptop and work in a private area away from the main spaces. I had every amenity I needed to live very comfortably. This was one of the best host and airbnb experiences. Thank you Barb!

Waterfront cedar log home 4 acre
We stayed at Kim's cabin over Christmas and it was a great choice. The cosy, wooden interior, the log fireplace, and the moody views across the lake really made it a special stay. The open layout of the main living area makes for a great group hang-out space. - the well stocked kitchen overlooks the living space, with an island with stools in-between - perfect for laying out spreads for people to graze! The dining area to the side, while removed slightly from the main area, is still very open and holding conversations between the 3 areas was seamless We only used the 2 downstairs bedrooms and the furnishings were good and in-keeping with the cosy and rustic feel. We made use of both the sauna and jacuzzi tub, and both worked well. As a group of just 4 we fit very comfortably, but even with 6 I feel there'd be plenty of room to hang out together, or spread out and have your own space if you wanted. Overall a very comfortable property than captures the warm vibe of the Kootenays.

BayView House, Tofino B.C.
The house is immense but also cozy at the same time. It’s private but also very close to shops, restaurants, and beaches. It’s very modern but still embodies the Pacific Northwest. It has all the luxuries of a resort but large enough to host 1 or two families. Thanks for the awesome experience.

Sleeps 9 with HUGE Waterfront & Beachfront Sauna
We stayed over Easter and had an incredible time—this place was perfect for a family getaway. The host was amazing, checking in several times and being flexible with check-in/out, which really helped as we were traveling with my dad who has Parkinson’s. The house itself is spacious and beautifully situated—so much room to relax, and the views were absolutely breathtaking. The photos truly don’t do it justice. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we could possibly need, and the BBQ setup was fantastic. There was plenty of wood, extra blankets for the chilly nights, and thoughtful touches everywhere that made it feel like home. The sauna was gorgeous and so relaxing, and the fire pit was a treat at night. The yard was massive and kept our kids (ages 8–12) entertained for hours. They played and explored nonstop while we enjoyed the peace and beauty of the space. We left feeling rested, grateful, and already planning our return. This place is an absolute gem.

Smokey Point 3 Bedroom Private Guest House
Smokey point was great very clean with easy access to Tofino and Ucluelet. The hosts were easy to communicate with The kitchen was well equipped. We had a wonderful time.

Port Renfrew Beach House
Great place to stay with a group of friends, even in the rainy winter season. The sauna was definitely a highlight, if you’re comfortable getting the wood stove going. The place was comfortable and had everything we needed. Would definitely return!

Luxury Penthouse Cathedral Loft with Lake View
it was a fantastic and peaceful location. We were there in March so the outside pool was closed but the inside/ outside pool was open and everyone enjoyed the access to it. the one glitch that would have been nice to know ahead of time is that,although you can access the pool without the fob you do need it to get back in to the building. There is a beautiful board walk walkway that is within close proximity. the unit was very clean and nicely decorated.

Waterfront Condo in the Heart of Tofino
My boyfriend and I had a weekend getaway at Celina's place. It felt like home away from home. Our stay was very relaxing, and the apartment was clean and equipped with everything we could have possibly needed. The living room window offers a nice view of the ocean. While we didn't have much luck with the weather, the cozy atmosphear of the apartment made the rainy day bearable. We absolutely recommend it to anyone comming to Tofino.

Beachfront Walk-out in the Heart
Lovely view from the first floor!

Central Downtown Vancouver Condo w/ Amazing Views
This Appartement was awesome. Super central and easy to find, we felt very comfortable straight from the start. The Appartement was clean and tidy and as described in the pictures. We were able to see everything by foot or public transportation. We recommend to stay here and would come back any time 😊

Mermaids Retreat
We rented for a month, so we got to know the ins and outs of the building and the neighborhood. When we were searching our biggest concerns were: location, view, parking and pricing. Grace's condo is small but easily adequate for two active people (who like to cook) for a month's stay. Everyday we took long walks along the harbor. The best walk is to immediately cross the Johnson St. Bridge and follow the Songhees Walkway which goes 3km to the west. We saw herons and owls, otters and seals. Victoria has a homeless issue which is something one cannot avoid noticing. However, we did not feel unsafe at any time. There are neighborhood supermarkets within walking distance, though food prices are really high (about double) compared to the Superstore or the Costco in Langford, which is a 20min drive away. Grace's apartment has excellent parking and seems to include overhead racks for kayaks! We did not inquire about these, but there seem to be many free spaces. Enjoy!

Downtown Lakefront Condo - Amazing Views BN82776
We loved our stay. The apartment is well located in a waterfront location in a walkable district. Entry was the easiest I’ve ever experienced, thanks to clear instructions. The apartment had been recently updated. It was clean and welcoming. James has thought of everything. We were sad to leave.

Luxury 2-bedroom condo beach side Yaletown
The apartment was in a great location for exploring Vancouver. It was close to the ferries to take you to Granville or Kitsalano. The picturesque seawall walk was just down the street taking you to Stanley Park or Yaletown. There were lots of cafes and restaurants within easy walking distance. The apartment was compact and had everything we needed for a 5 day stay. We would definitely stay here again on any future trips.

Pacific Shores - 2 Bdrm Oceanfront Unit with deck
Highly recommend Roy’s place! The location was perfect and the view from the master bedroom of the water was amazing! The apartment was very spacious and clean and it had everything we needed! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay again!
