Great neighborhood! Beautiful, quiet, excellent location: close to 10th ave, Jericho beach and UBC. Plenty of space in house for our two families. Anita was a wonderful contact and responded quickly. Hope to be back here in two years!

Fabulous house for our family of 5, so comfortable, we felt like we were just at home!
Lovely house for our stay in Vancouver, the air conditioning was welcomed during the hot days. Everything was accessible and the house was very comfortable. Juliet and Anita were always at the other of the phone if we had any questions. Would highly recommend!

Great house, great location
We loved staying here. It was actually our second time renting this house! The neighborhood is quiet and beautiful, located next to trails for walking/running. Plenty of restaurants within a short drive. The house is gorgeous, plenty of space for the six of us. My son had a great time switching “his” rooms from one kid room to the other. We appreciated the AC units in some of the bedrooms, as those were not there the first time we stayed! Overall a fantastic place to stay.

Hip and cozy hideaway
Loved our stay!!!! Hip and cozy family home tucked away on a quiet street in West Point Grey. Lots of natural light, great kitchen, plenty of space for a busy group to have some time away. Steps from Pacific Spirit park and a short walk to a great wine store and coffee shop! 100% recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Sam

Host profile image
We are a French-American family with 3 children currently enjoying the Vancouver lifestyle, having recently relocated from Asia and Europe.

We have a passion for traveling - and have been fortunate to travel the world with our kids - often making other people's home our own, either with owner house rentals or home exchanges. Living in someone's home is not only the best option when traveling with kids. It is also a great way to meet people around the world and we have made many friends along the way.

Why they chose this property

This property was love at first sight! Our whole family was attracted to the bright, modern, open feel of the house -- making it possible to all have our own space while being together. In the winter, we play board games by the fireplace or enjoy the hot tub. In the summer, we have long lazy afternoons on the deck overlooking Pacific Spirit Park.

What makes this property unique

We are so fortunate to live in such a privileged location in Vancouver. Pacific Spirit Park, one of the largest urban parks is just down the block, with 34 miles of mixed forest and shoreline trails. Vancouver Spanish Bank beach is down the street, 5 minutes by car or bus. Neighborhood cafes and popular eateries are 5 blocks down (7 min walk). And, of course, the proximity to UBC tops it all off ! We have tennis, swimming, ice-skating, trails, beach and activities all within reach while being 15 min away from downtown.
