Easter 2025

We were looking for a location close to our son who lives on Shelbourne. A great location as we could wander through Lambrick Park to get to Shelbourne. We arrived and were surprised by the amount of space we had. More room than the photos can show. Kitchen had everything we needed, and the shower was great! We were extremely comfortable and more than happy to be there.Ryan was great to deal with!

Comfy Victoria house

This 2 bedroom 1& 1/2 bath house close to the university was well equipped for our stay. The beds and linens were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed for a multi night stay. Both sittings rooms were bright. Our host was very responsive and helpful.

Home Away From Home

Stayed at Gordon Head Getaway for the better part of a week during spring break to visit our daughter going to school at UVIC. We picked up groceries and the kitchen was well equipped to prep and enjoy meals, beds were comfortable, everything was clean and well kept. The host Ryan responded quickly about anything. We would definitely stay again!

Wonderful Stay in a Comfortable and Well-Equipped Home

We had a fantastic stay at this home! The house was very comfortable, well-equipped with all the amenities we needed, and located in a quiet neighborhood with great parking. The multiple living areas were perfect for our group—two couples plus two family members joining us for meals—giving everyone space to relax and enjoy different activities. Communication with the owner was excellent; they were attentive and made sure we had everything we needed for a great stay. Highly recommend this place for a peaceful and enjoyable getaway!

Gordon Head Getaway

We had the pleasure of staying at Gordon Head Getaway. There were 6 girls staying together, and it was the perfect space for a bigger group. Ryan was a great host!! He was able to accommodate us pretty last minute which was very much appreciated. He was easy to communicate with, quick response time, and you could tell he wanted to make sure our stay was enjoyable. His house is very spacious, with two good sized living rooms. Good size bedrooms, comfortable beds, two TVs which came in handy when we wanted to watch different shows. The space was inviting, and very clean. Lots of attention to detail and decor which us girls could appreciate. Convenient location, quick drive to downtown and popular restaurants. Close to the water and walking trails. We tackled Mount Doug, so worth the effort, what a view!!! We would absolutely book here in the future.
