Holiday rentals with beach access in Central Saanich

The place was ready when we arrived, access was very easy. The space was clean and equipped with all the essentials. Ryan was easy to communicate with, got us what we needed from coffee to tea towels! He also had some great local recommendations. Beautiful weather and accomodations made it feel like a luxury glamping experience!

A lot of "bang for your buck" with this stay. The apartment is generously sized and the kitchen is well stocked. We enjoyed making our meals in the well equipped kitchen with a window overlooking the ocean. The garden is absolutely gorgeous with a stunning waterview. The hosts provide a variety of comfortable outside seating options from which to enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

Wonderful place, Wonderful hosts, Wonderful Stay. Steve and Carol are the warmest and kindest hosts ever. The house was also amazing - historic, great water views, and just comfortable all around. We would definitely consider staying again in the future.

Thoughtfully furnished and comfortable- would love to stay again!

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.

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.

Christine’s place was a peaceful retreat with plenty of things to do within walking distance. She was extremely helpful during our stay with food and drink recommendations. She helped us navigate the bus system. We will definitely stay at her place again for our next visit.

Great time Would definitely recommend

Cool Breeze is absolutely above and beyond! While we have stayed in cozy AirBnBs before, this place is simply amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed all the loving touches including a kitchen fully stocked with every tool you need to make a meal, the collection of vinyl records, and generally the charming cozy atmosphere of the house. Really appreciate how lovingly the hosts have put everything together, down to all the logistical details that made our stay very smooth. We certainly hope to stay again here sometime.

words can’t describe how amazing this home is! the view of the olympics and beach access made our vacation truly special! the home was clean, spacious and had everything we needed, including plenty of beach towels, a few toys for the kiddos, books and even binoculars! we will absolutely be back!

This house will make your trip to San Juan even more memorable. Barbara’s attention to detail amazed us, we kept discovering little things around the house, like a tray with games, additional blankets and pillows to stay cozy in the living room, flashlights in the nightstands to find your way around at night (it’s actually not needed since Barbara thought about motion lights around the house). If you want to feel being taken care of, Barbara’s place is highly recommended!

Great little house with an ocean view equipped with everything you could need! Perfectly matched the description with extra amenities and recommendations that put it over the top. Well worth the price point. Would definitely stay again!

This place is a gem. Looking over the water, watching the seals and birds was so peaceful. The house is very well equipped and beautifully done. Can’t say enough about this place. Enjoy!

We had a family gathering for 10 people. The house was warm and friendly and easily accommodated all of us. There were 3 children, 11 to 15. They played badmitten and ran around the 7 acre tract and spent hours at the private beach. San Juan island is one of the most beautiful places on the west coast and this place truly enhanced our visit, I can't say enough good things and highly recommend staying there.

The house had great accommodations and it being right on the water was absolutely perfect. It was so peaceful and serene, wish we could have stayed longer.

My friend and I were looking for a place to relax over a long weekend. I also wanted to get out on the water and walk on the beach. This place was perfect for us! We were a block off the beach, situated on a canal, and could walk to the beach easily. The hot tup was just perfect for chilly mornings and after a long paddle. The bedrooms were comfy. The kitchen was roomy and had what we needed. The living room was perfect for watching a movie after dinner. And the fenced yard made me and my pup very very happy. Would totally stay here again!

My dog and I had a great short "staycation" at Brad's place after spending the previous couple days camping outside of Olympic National Park! The hot tub was quite welcome after a few days of hiking. :) Perfect place to take a dog since the back yard/patio area is fully fenced. I also loved the fancy shower and all the design details. Would've loved to have a real oven, but that was the only drawback (and is clearly noted on the listing, so I knew I wouldn't going in). I will be back!

Wonderful place to stay. We came without a car and were able to walk everywhere: Cook Street Village, Beacon Hill park, downtown, Chinatown, the inner harbour. Being able to watch the ships from the front room and walk along the seafront right out the front door was amazing. The house is luxurious and spotlessly clean. A great getaway spot!

What a beautiful spot! Loved sitting on the balcony enjoying the ocean view. The nearby walking/biking trail was amazing. Wish I could have stayed longer. Lots more trails I wanted to do. Viewing the murals is a must see! Ice cream at Scoops By The Sea is a must do.

Nice place. Great location Closet was small and furnishings were a bit out of scale and dated. Pillows were mis matched. Kitchen was clunky with no oven just a toaster oven. Noise from the garage door and cars coming and going was irritating. Kit drawer did not work, and drawer front was separated. Threshold to bath was splintered. Overall just needed some careful maintenance.

Excellent on all points. The apartment was spacious, clean with modern furnishings. the view from the balcony was a highlight. Kristin and Ryan were responsive and helpful - we appreciated the extra bit of time to check out. Parking is easy to access and just a stones throw from the main street of town.

An oasis on Vancouver Island. Rick was a great host. Very accommodating and quick to respond when we had any questions. A beautiful home with beautiful surroundings.

We had an incredible stay at this stunning property perched on the ocean in Shirley, BC! The views of the Olympic Mountains from the premium hot tub were nothing short of breathtaking, especially when we spotted humpback whales at dusk on our first night—pure magic! The property itself at moments may feel more like a swanky international hotel with its backlit onyx kitchen and luxurious rain shower yet nestled in the rustic beauty of the coast. Our host, Robert, was incredibly kind and attentive, immediately offering his charging station for our car—a real relief. Highly recommend this place for an exceptional, premium coastal retreat close to Victoria!

Leith's studio apartment is quiet, yet a walk around the corner from the main street. The views of the East Sound and surrounding landscape from the high up deck are beautiful. The interior is artfully well-appointed and equipped.
