Couple's Oasis w/chef's kitchen, hot tub, swim pond & gardens.

Discover a spacious, stylish, and luxuriously updated 1947 top-floor retreat, where modern comfort meets vintage charm. Enjoy an open-concept living space flowing from the elegant living room to a dining area seating 8-10, culminating in a chef's kitchen.
French doors open to your expansive private deck, an entertainer's dream. It features outdoor dining for 10, a Weber natural gas BBQ, Ooni pizza oven, a bubbling hot tub, natural swim pond, outdoor shower, lush gardens, and a dock with a large sectional and fire table.
Designed primarily for two, this retreat now comfortably accommodates 2-5 guests (and pets!) with added sleeping options. The large bedroom boasts a Westin Heavenly king bed (sleeps 2) and a twin sofa bed (sleeps 1), while the living room offers a firm queen sofa bed (sleeps 2).
Conveniently located for exploring Victoria, you'll find free parking for one car, easy transit access, and proximity to shops, restaurants, the University of Victoria, and Camosun College Lansdowne Campus. It's just a 6-minute drive to Cadboro Bay Beach and 15 minutes to downtown.
Need more space? Combine this level with the downstairs owner's suite (sleeps 8) to create the "Family Oasis @ Horner Park," accommodating up to 12 guests. This lower level offers three additional queen bedrooms, a wet bar kitchen, TV lounge, workspace, a sitting room with a queen sofa bed (sleeps 2), laundry, and a full bathroom.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bidets. Other standard amenities include a fireplace, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Liked: Cleanliness
After reading many reviews with some variation of, "This was the best VRBO I have ever rented," my expectations were high. In fact, I have to say - this may have been the best VRBO I have ever rented. Some VRBOs are like a good hotel - clean, simple, spartan. Some are like housesitting for a friend - full of the clutter of everyday life. Couple's Oasis is the latter, except the friend happens to be scrupulously clean, has impeccable taste in decorating, and is a fanatical cook. It has literally the best-equipped kitchen I've ever seen. The backyard is an amazing retreat, and we regretted not being able to try the swim pond or hot tub. The furniture and bedding are classy and comfortable. The location is fantastic for visiting the U Victoria area, and only 15-18 minutes from downtown. The hosts Louis and Tasha were friendly, helpful, and communicative. We will absolutely try to stay here again, or in one of their several other properties. Thanks for a great stay!
