The Royal Bay Escape: Cozy 2 bedrooms garden suite

Perfect . Loved every minute of our stay.

Pros: Perfect location, cleanliness, amenities. Special bonus was the toys etc for children which was perfect as we were visiting from Australia to see family. Would definitely recommend and will stay there again when we return.

Cons: There was nothing to not like .

Highly recommend

Pros: What a lovely place. I was very impressed to see the children's room. I highly recommend this place.

Simply the best....

Pros: This accomdation is excellent. From check in to check out everything was perfect. The attention to detail was +++. Would highly recommend 👌 We travel a lot on holidays and have just spent 21 days in Canada....This is 5 star accomodation and by far the best we have stayed in, including Hotels

Cons: Nothing at all. A fabulous experience

Great apartment close to Victoria

Pros: This garden apartment is super nicely located in a newly built neighborhood in Colwood. A grocery store and nearby coffee and food options are in walking distance, as is the ocean. It’s very well connected to Victoria (I recommend Colwood Exch Park+Ride) and other parts of the island. The communication with the hosts was easy and the flat is beautifully furnished with all amenities. You feel right at home and the children’s room is so cute.

Cons: The dryer wasn’t the best, and the Keurig wasn’t emptied, but that’s minor remarks. For an 1.75m person the bunk bed was a bit short, but I’m sure it’s amazing with kids!!

loved it and recommend it

Pros: Our small family stayed here over the Victoria Day long weekend and absolutely loved it—especially our 3-year-old son! He was thrilled to find so many toys to play with, which was such a nice surprise. The entire suite was spotless and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The host was also very welcoming and quick to respond.

Fantastic place to stay!

Pros: Our stay was fantastic. We had everything we needed. Our hosts were lovely and there if we needed them. The space was perfect for my family (2 adults 2 kids). The beds were all comfortable (queen bed and a twin size bunk bed). There were books and toys for my kids to enjoy (ages 7 and 11). There was also a travel playpen/bed for a baby if there was a need. There was a highchair, which was great when my neice came for a quick visit. The kitchen has all the typical things you would need. They had coffee for a pot and a single use pods. As well as sugar and coffeemate. There is a grocery store (Quality Foods), Tim Hortons, Starbucks, fast food restaurants, beaches, and parks all in walking distance. The neighborhood is quiet and family oriented. We will absolutely go back when we visit our family if the space is available.

Cons: This was not a problem for us as we are a family with two busy kids. The hosts live upstairs, and we heard them walking around periodically. I never heard them after 9 pm, and if we needed to, we could easily have used ear plugs. But just be aware there are people living upstairs. But honestly, most hotels are louder. I would take a bit of foot traffic noise any day. It was comforting for me actually.

Pros: Probably the best private apartment I have stayed in though Booking.com. The facilities were excellent and the decor of a very high order. The bed was very comfortable. The location is handy for East Sooke NP and Victoria, both only about half an hour's drive away.

Cons: Perhaps a bench or chair in the bedroom would have been useful.

Smart 2 bedroom apartment in quiet area

Pros: Lovely ground floor/basement apartment in a smart newly built housing area. All very modern and perfectly clean. Plenty of space and fully equipped. Host very helpful and friendly. Large supermarket and small collection of takeaways a few minutes away. Lots of space for a holiday let. We had just finished a long trip round BC and stayed here for a couple of nights after travelling from Port Renfrew prior to going home and suited us perfectly.

A great stay. Home from home

Pros: It is a lovely apartment, very very clean has everthing you need. We would definately book again. Very easy reach to get to my daughters on foot. Colwood is a lovely place lots of lovely walks.

Cons: There wasnt anything that we didnt like

Pros: comfy, private. we had an event in the area. It was great!
