Set on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, the charming city of Victoria once served as an outpost for Queen Victoria's British Empire. Today, the city still features remnants of its British colonial past, including elegant Victorian architecture and lush formal gardens. Blessed with green space and natural beauty, the provincial capital is also known for its bevy of outdoor activities. Whether you spend the day touring mansions or walking along rocky shorelines, your Victoria vacation rental is sure to provide a memorable experience.

Things to do

Sightseeing near Victoria vacation rentals

If you booked your Victoria vacation rental for the spring, be sure to visit Butchart Gardens, with its pristine formal gardens, water features, and carousel. While the 55-acre garden offers year-round beauty, spring blooms bring a wealth of vivid colors. Your day keeps getting more elegant as you tour the Craigdarroch Castle, an ornate 1890 Victorian mansion, or settle in for afternoon tea at the Empress, the city's iconic and grand chateau-style hotel. Ever wanted to rub elbows with movers and shakers? Take a tour of the Parliament Buildings, home to the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia.

Weather

Local weather for your stay in Victoria vacation homes

Winter means one thing: you'll spend plenty of time hunkering down inside your Victoria vacation rental. While daytime highs average a mild 44 degrees, snow blankets the island city in the winter, with December and January garnering between 8 to 10 inches of the white stuff each month. When it's not snowing, it's raining, particularly from November through January, a period that sees the most precipitation. Things dry off during the cool but sunny summers when the mercury climbs to the high 60s. Tepid springs and falls see temperatures peak in the low 50s.
