The Applebnb was very clean and well stocked. Lots of room for 6 adults and two well mannered dogs. Tiffany was extremely responsive and answered all our questions in a timely way.
The home was so beautiful! Perfect for our first family vacation. Lots of rooms and bathrooms so some extended family members could come but enjoy their own space too. Home was very clean and comfortable. Took us a bit to find the closest beach.
Everything was great. The kids loved the bathtubs and we enjoyed the beautiful decor. What an amazing house. Our only disappointment was not bring able to find a "sandy beach" I can't hike in anywhere due to a back problem, so we were restricted. Nice to sit in the sun though!Thank you!
To have the family in Vanc and my family on the island get together in one place for Christmas was very special. To be in a lovely warm spacious home where we all could enjoy ourselves in a gorgeous west coast location was the topping on the Christmas tree.
Lots of room for many people to enjoy, well stocked kitchen, lovely view, good location. Well taken care of and very clean with many new touches. The location is right above highway 14 so there is occasional traffic noise..
This VRBO is awesome! Lots of room for 8 adults, a bathroom for each couple plus one more. The kitchen was very well stocked. The owners went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed or wanted. We loved our stay here and i would highly recommend it for anyone who is looking for a larger place to rent. 5 stars all the way around!

Thank you so much for your kind review. I try to make it as easy as possible to stay there :)
You and your family were wonderful guests and kept the house in such good condition considering how many family members you had. It was so clean!
Cheers
This property gave my family plenty of room to enjoy it get together. It was very generously stocked with everything we needed to enjoy our weekend, including tea,coffee and spices. The kids and dogs had room to Play in the garden. There was also good wifi, games and puzzles for quiet times. View Of the Juan de Fuca amazing!!

Thank you so much for your kind review. Happy to hear you and your family enjoyed your stay :)
This is a great property that is very well-maintained and clean with a gorgeous view. It has large bedrooms with comfy beds and bathrooms with good water pressure and nice wash products. The upstairs has a cozy living room area with lots of seating to hangout in and has a great view. The property is close to amenities and beaches. I would not recommend walking to the beach that is 5-7mins away because you have to cross and walk on the lip of the highway. I would have appreciated being told in advance there was a ring camera that would be monitored by the owner during our stay.
Lovely property by the water. Great views and short drive from town and to local sights. House is clean and very well stocked. Owners are very considerate to make sure all the comforts of home are available. Only issue that may come up is the accessibility of the beach; you have to make a dash across the highway between two blind curves and the path down is steep and single file. It was hard for grandma to do without help and no way you want to bring a bunch of beach stuff. 4 stars because of beach and older home needing some updating but otherwise wonderful stay!
Gorgeous property and one of the best equipped rentals I’ve ever had. House layout is fabulous, water views stunning, the garden and grounds are beautifully maintained. It had everything advertised. My only suggestion was some screens on windows as the upper level gets quite hot (however the host provides a small air conditioner and fans) but the mozzies love all the beautiful foliage and we couldn’t leave the windows open. It is a perfect family hangout with comfortable beds and lots of soundproofing. We rented the entire house and guest suite (beautiful space) so it was very spacious.
The Applebnb was quite simply one of the nicest properties we have ever stayed in. There were eight of us (with six adults and two children) celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary and the facility was perfect for our needs as everyone had their own space. Arrival and checkin was seamless and the house was spotless. The kitchen was VERY well stocked with everything needed and a good supply of spices and supplies. We spent a lot of time on the expansive deck overlooking the Strait of Juan de Fuca with the mountains of the Olympic peninsula in the distance. There was also a sitting area on the ground level where we sat, had our happy hours, and read. Communication with our host Tiffany was excellent and responses to questions was almost immediate. This was an incredible experience in an incredible place. We would return in a heartbeat.

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review. You were all such lovely guests and are welcome back anytime.
Cheers
This is by far the most beautiful and accommodating property we have ever stayed at. The house was very clean and laid out well for multiple families. On the property there are multiple lush gardens and even an herb garden that you are welcome to use. We saw wildlife such as deer, rabbits and even a bald eagle. The view of the ocean is incredible from the balconies and big open windows. Throughout the house there are many extras provided that are above and beyond what other hosts usually do. Here are some: 5 gallon filtered water, snacks, drinks, coffee, extra toiletries, spices for cooking, beach towels, live plants in almost every room. There are beach trails in walking distance and it's conveniently located close to Sooke but far enough to enjoy the quiet. I highly recommend this property and host. We will definitely stay again when we can make it back to Sooke!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review. :)
We are glad you enjoyed your stay and welcome you and your family back anytime.
We had a family reunion last weekend to celebrate my mom's 80th birthday, and we couldn't have chosen a more perfect location. The property was simply stunning, and we all instantly fell in love. It was impeccably clean and beautifully decorated, showing the host's thoughtful touch throughout.
Each bedroom had its own bathroom, the bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. The kids had a blast with ping pong, board games, and a great selection of books. The rest of us enjoyed bonding time through walks in the gorgeous garden, BBQs, and conversations on the patio overlooking the mountains and ocean.
There are beaches and lighthouses to explore nearby, and the fact that Victoria is just a short 40-minute drive away is a bonus. The daily visits from rabbits and deer added to the charm of the place.
Tiffany, our host, was amazing. She was always available and promptly responded to our questions and requests even in early mornings.
We highly recommend this vacation home for a truly unforgettable experience.
