February Retreat

Booked for the month, unfortunately due to health issues, had to cut retreat short. This place was very cosy and well beyond what I was expecting. The property managers are very exceptional and caring people. They really care and are there for their guests. My opinion, probably the the best on the Island!

Great stay!

The place is beautiful and perfectly located near a beach, close to lots of shopping and restaurants, and handy to the rugby facility. The house was easy to access and well-appointed for our needs. We would recommend to friends and other family travelling in the area.

Living your best life in Langford at the sweet suite

This was a wonderfully sweet suite - such a cute, comfy, cozy place to stay. All one could need for a short or longer stay is provided, in this quaintly decorated and well equipped suite. Sitting at the window seat in the well appointed living room with your morning coffee, gazing beyond the garden, one can look out to the lovley lake view beyond. Then only a quick, brisk walk out the backyard gate and into the Glen Lake Park you will find a huge grassy area and picnic benches, a large play area and seasonal water park; not to mention the lake with a bridge to fish and swim or paddle off of. Not far from the house are many handy places to go, from hiking/biking trails, more lakes , beaches and many other activities, restaurants and shops close at hand. A great location to get around to many historical, cultural, and recreational activities and nature areas galore. And if all this isn’t enough, two of the nicest people to meet and greet you, who are very kind and exceptional hosts always communicating and helpful with numerous questions. They definitely went above and beyond for us, and I feel we met new friends . Thank you for the kind and generous hospitality!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hosts were very attentive and thoughtful. Just wish we had more time to enjoy the beautiful park that was out the back gate. We would definitely stay here again.

In the heart of all we like to do.

This property was conveniently located close to little Glen Lake where we paddled. A short ride to the Galloping Goose trail was perfect! The hosts were excellent, welcoming, engaged and very helpful. The WIFI connectivity was a little off and on but other than that it was ideal!

A hidden gem

I would give this place a 6 or 7 stars out of 5. I was pleasantly surprised with this apartment. The costing and location is perfect. The location is close to a bus stop and has pleasant walks nearby. The kitchen is better equipped than my own place! and the owners are amazing to interact with, they went out of their way to ensure I had the best stay. I have not a single complaint or recommendation on how they could do better. If I am in town again, I will surely stay with them again.

Perfect lakeside getaway!

This place was amazing. The unit was spotless and like a home away from home. It is fully equipped with everything you could need and more. John Brian and Susan were so helpful with local information and anything we needed. The unit is cosy with beautiful views of Glen Lake and there is direct access through a gate at the bottom of the garden. We can’t wait to come back and stay here again! We would definitely recommend staying here if you are visiting Langford!

Exploring Langford

The location was close to major shopping amenities and close to the freeway for easy access. Set in the trees with a small lake nearby with walking trails. We were in our F150 - a bit large for the parking area but managed. Hosts were very friendly and responsive and live in the home which is above the lower level (walkout level) apartment. Only real complaint - could have a larger table in the kitchen - a drop leaf round table should still work in the area and accomodate eating meals easier. Rest of the facilities were excellant. Would stay there again.

Nice little apartment

After a very warm welcome we entered a fully equipped apartment. There are blankets and chairs for the beach at there nearby lake. Everything has its place and is labelled. We felt comfortable returning after a long day with excursions. Thanks to John and Sue, who really want you to have a great time.

Far exceeded expectations

This cozy place is in a great neighborhood with far more than we expected. It is close to shopping, movie theatres and plenty of dinning options. The suite is set up very well and there was nothing we could have wanted that wasn’t there. They have put together a detailed book with all the ins and outs of the place as well as some info on Victoria and things to do. Thanks for a great place to finish our days and wind down from a couple hectic days spent driving down from the Yukon and moving our daughter into her new place.

Absolute Gem.

What a beautiful property! It felt like home from the minute we walked in and we wished that we had more time to spend there. The unit is immaculately furnished with everything you could possibly need and lots of extras like the reading nook and a wonderful folder of resources to help you navigate your stay in Victoria. The property is an easy 20 minutes drive into Victoria but set in gorgeous Langford in a quiet road with access to a lake, park and play area.John sent us detailed instructions to find it which worked perfectly. There is a supermarket less than 5 minutes by car. We would love to return and stay again.
