Our friend from out-of-town stayed here while visiting with us and was very happy and comfortable. Everything he could have needed was provided and it was impeccably clean. The suite seemed brand new. Highly recommended!

Perfect choice
This suite is modern, incredibly clean, and well maintained. The kitchen is new and well equipped and the bathroom also new with great storage. The bed is queen sized, and the duvet and sheets wonderful. I was most impressed by the lovely welcome package, that made our first few mornings a delight. The only negative would be the lack of a view, but this was perfect for the season and our length of stay. The unit was still very bright.

Louise and Paul met us a we arrived and were very friendly and helpful. The suite is fantastic and really well equipped, everything we needed and more. There was a nice welcome basket sitting on the kitchen table when we arrived. We had great sleeps there as the bed was extremely comfortable. It's a great place to stay, really close to everything in Duncan and close to major roads to take you to the beautiful places to see on the Island. We would recommend this suite as a great place to stay!

A fabulous suite!
The hosts of this VRBO thought of everything! It’s the little things that make a big impression. For example, a lovely welcome basket was full of goodies, and there was a new quart of milk in the fridge! The neighbourhood was quiet and tidy. Our stay was very comfortable. Already planning to return!
