This house is my father’s dream. My parents came from the island of Paros in Greece. Longing for his mediterranean home, my father built this house with the Greek islands in mind, namely the classic mansions. With marble throughout, white-washed walls and big windows to let in the sun, this is a warm and beautiful home.
If you need anything, my mother lives in the suite downstairs and loves to tend to the garden :) Provincial Registration Number: H916088234

Thank you so much for the kind words ERIN, you guys were wonderful, hope to see you again!
The property and rooms are exactly as pictured, perhaps even more beautiful in person! The place was sparkling clean and very spacious. We used the VRBO as a place to get ready for our wedding weekend and it was so perfect. Lots of beautiful areas for getting ready photos and such a convenient location. We would recommend this space for any occasion! Thank you Nikos!!!

Thanks for the kind words Mike, you guys were awesome!
“What a perfect stay—look no further! We’ve visited Vancouver many times with our young kids, and this has been the best place by far. The location is ideal, the space is spotless and perfectly appointed, and the host is fantastic and very responsive if needed. Truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We HIGHLY recommend it!”
This was one of the best experiences my family and I have had with a VRBO rental! From booking to checkout, Nikos was accommodating, informative, and one of the most hospitable hosts I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. The home was top notch, clean, comfortable, and we felt not only safe but very comfortable. Also walking distance to one of the best Italian restaurants (recommended by our host) my family has experienced. I would highly recommend the stay at this property!
Part of the trip was for a conference while 2 of us stayed longer to tour the city. The space was larger than expected with a great balcony. Host was super friendly and very helpful. Warm and comfortable place that felt like home. Thank you Nikos and Anna!!.

Thank you so much Michelle! It was a pleasure hosting you! Hope to see you again!
We arrived at our beautiful three bedroom home and was welcomed with perfect amenities. Good instructions. Our host was very gracious and accommodating. Each of the bedrooms and baths were spacious and very comfortable. The kitchen was very well stocked. The grocery stores and restaurants within walking distance were so charming.

Stayed with my husband and our two adult children and their spouses. Everyone had their own room and bathroom. The kitchen, dining and living room were very spacious, plenty of room for everyone. The house was equipped with everything you need and then some. We enjoyed some family meals at the property. There is a very nice balcony with room for all. Nikos was very friendly and easy to communicate with. Would definitely recommend

About the host
Hosted by Nikos
Hi, I'm Nikos! I'm a first generation Greek-Canadian, and like all Greeks, I love to offer our warm hospitality in welcoming you to Vancouver and my home.
Why they chose this property
My home sits on the border of the Kitsilano and Arbutus Ridge neighbourhoods of Vancouver. It has the quaintness and coolness of Kits - lots of restaurant around, markets and shopping; while also having the abundance of space that comes with Arbutus Ridge. There are lots of parks and diverse paths to talk a walk or jog - whether you're looking for fitness or a leisurely stroll.
What makes this property unique
This house was envisioned by my father who, missing Greece, decided to make this home a mediterranean villa on the Pacific. It is spacious, full of natural light from big windows and skylights, and perfect for housing a large group.
The kitchen was always busy with my mom baking and cooking up something delightful. There's an island and plenty of counter space for preparing a family meal together. The kitchen is also fully equipped with whatever you may need: olive oil, salt pepper and spices are provided, as well as other small appliances such as rice cooker or blender. There is also an LG stove and oven range and large double door LG fridge.
The living area is large and comfortable, which direct access to the balcony. There are some cool furniture pieces from my parent's heyday, but almost everything else you'll find, from beds to sofa are new. The bathrooms have also been recently renovated.
After a long day, guests can retire to their privacy in one of three bedrooms. The bedrooms are very spacious and feature TWO king beds and one queen bed.
If your group needs to do laundry, there is a large capacity Samsung washer and dryer for your exclusive use.
