Map & Owner's Profile
Awesome Yaletown Condo, 2010 Olympics Ready. Sailing Optional!
Year Purchased: 2004
Why the Owner Chose Vancouver
Location is excellent for visitors and business, alike. Over the years we have enjoyed visits around the world using VRBO, and wish to share the same sort of hospitality to our guests as well.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
Secure and comfortable setting for short and lengthier stays. Great location for someone working away from home for a few weeks to months, or for those simply visiting. Resources to support those who are working away from home are nearby (i.e. Office Supply, UPS Mailing, etc.), and visitors have all types of entertainment and activities to select from. We very much enjoy sailing, and are happy to share tips and suggestions for those interested in enjoying what BC waterways have to offer.
Owner's Map of Vancouver
My husband and I have resided in downtown Vancouver since 2004 and have enjoyed the downtown lifestyle. We love the convenience of rarely needing to drive, as everything is within easy walking distance. We are avid sailors and enjoy many of the outdoor activities that Vancouver and British Columbia have to offer.
