The Loft Oceanfront retreat on Salt Spring Island
Stunning estate close to Ganges. Outstanding independent cottage, private parking/entrance, cozy and comfortable with all amenities (cable/Netflix, Wi-Fi, etc), barbecue, and breathtaking sunset views. The guests have access to an exclusive dock and exercise/media room with a small infrared sauna (shared space). Fenced trails within the property and plenty of room to relax and enjoy nature, including the eagle's nest above the Nest cabin. E-bikes, kayaks and paddleboards available for rent in town. Sorry, no kids under 14.
The space
The Loft is a comfortable suite with space for you and your family (kids 14 and older). You will enjoy spectacular views from two balconies on each side of the cottage. There is a private barbecue and direct access to the point. Our Orchard offers apples, pears and cherries for the picking, and you may also enjoy our organic herbs and vegetable gardens. The Loft guests have exclusive access to our oceanfront hot tub. Located by the sea, Valhalla offers private trails and the ideal setting for water sports, with rental options in town.
Guest access
You may explore the whole estate, except for the main house, the Nest (separate cottage) and the caretaker's house. The Loft guests have access to the Hot tub.
Other things to note
Please note that we share our home with our guests, and that we are a small and familial operation, without staff or full-time services. We are only happy if our guests are having the best time, so we try hard to have their expectations met within our capacity.
If you have an Electric Vehicle, there are several charging stations around the island. We do not have EV charging capacity on the property.
We use regular cleaning products. If you have any sensitivity to detergents such as Tide/Persil/Downy or Greenworks, Clorox, Pledge, etc., please advise us at the time of your booking so we can accommodate your special cleaning request.
Although we love to see our guests have fun, we ask you to respect other guests' and our private spaces. Valhalla is a place to relax, meditate and contemplate nature and we appreciate quietude.
Please be mindful that the Loft is located in a wooded area, and it is usual to find pollen, pine needles, small animals like little frogs, spiders and harmless critters. Despite our best efforts to clean the cobwebs, you may find a few as they are formed every day.
The cottage is heated and features a kitchenette and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.
