We had a great stay. The place was quiet and secluded, yet close to some nice local hikes. Scott was a wonderful host. We barely needed his assistance, but whenever something was missing, such as an extra ingredient or a small kitchen item, he was always available while still giving us complete privacy.

This property, and the property host, exceeded our expectations! The location itself was incredible, the suite was larger than anticipated and very well-appointed, and the host was extremely thorough prior to check-in (offering many suggestions in advance of the check-in) as well as while on-property. He was respectful to us as guests and offered to procure anything we may have forgotten. We are very much looking forward to our next visit.

Amazing as always. Scott’s home is absolutely beautiful. Everything you could need for a perfect stay is there. The beds and bedding are so comfortable! We kayaked, fished, relaxed on the loungers, enjoyed our morning coffee watching the ocean, finished each evening watching the stars. Scott goes above and beyond to help out with anything you may need. We will definitely be back for a third time!
Low tide in the morning. So many starfish!
Coffee view every day!

The view is like an interactive painting changing in every part of the day. Scott is an amazing host and masters the equilibrium of being present for help and hospitality and respecting our peaceful holiday feeling. Even though we came from Europe, we hope to come here again with the family.

About the host

Hosted by Scott Wollin

Host profile image
We relocated to Sooke 7 years ago after living in Costa Rica where we built and ran Villa Mariana, a high end, luxury vacation rental home in the jungle of Manuel Antonio.

We were looking for a home by the ocean that was slightly off the beaten path but still close enough to enjoy a Great Restaurant or a day of shopping.

Living at Seaside Cove feels like living in a watercolor painting, with the ocean view providing a pallet for an evolving landscape, of mountains, trees, wildlife ,and colors.
We have always loved nature and have spent many years in Costa Rica rescuing and rehabilitating everything from dogs and cats to sloths, coatimundis, even the occasional boa constrictor.

We value our creature comforts and offer our guests the same high standard of quality and detail that we enjoy in our home.

We enjoy hiking with our Dogs, taking an evening kayak or checking the crab pots for fresh Dungeness. Our favorite time is spending a warm afternoon picking berries, baking artisan bread and creating organic meals with ingredients from our garden.

Every effort is made to ensure our guests have their privacy and at the same time we are happy to make suggestions as to what to see and do during your stay.
