About this property

Seaside Family Home with a peaceful setting overlooking a sheltered bay

Hosts Bob & Jennifer are retired world travellers and enjoy welcoming guests from home and abroad. Salty's by the Sea is a recent, well planned addition to their family home of 50 years. Beyond our fully fenced gardens, there is easy access to the sea shore and our sheltered bay, where seals bask on rocks, eagles soar, ducks and birds come to play.

Our spacious 600 sq ft ground floor studio comes with a well equipped kitchenette, living area with queen sofa bed, a cosy queen bed area and bathroom with shower. Through the sliding doors to a fenced garden and area, our sea side garden is ready for your enjoyment under the gazebo and other sitting areas by the sea. Our mellow Bearded Collie, Fergus, invites your friendly dog (Under 75 kg) to visit his back yard. Sorry but we cannot accept cats.

Our seaside home is 30 minutes from the airport and 45 minutes from the BC Ferries terminal. Full shopping amenities are nearby.

We provide our guests with starter basics for several breakfasts; milk, juice, coffee and tea; cereals, eggs, yogurt & bread.

About the host

Hosted by Bob & Jennifer Burgis

Host profile image
We are retired world travellers who appreciate the outdoors as well as enjoy the proximity and cultural events of a city. It is our pleasure to share our unique location with guests from near and far and share experiences & hear their stories.

Why they chose this property

It was inevitable that a member of the family would return to a family home that was purchased by the sea in 1972.

What makes this property unique

Located on Parry Bay, with a view of the Olympic Mountains in Washington State, the rural setting is second to none. As a waterfront acreage, the house has been substantially updated to ensure family members will continue to enjoy it for years to come.
