Waterfront Stay with Balcony and BBQ
Property Overview
Position yourself directly on the pulse of Victoria's historic working harbor. Located at 409 Swift Street, Marvelous Mermaid is a one-of-a-kind waterfront residence inside a highly desirable steel-and-concrete building completed in 2000. Fully renovated in February 2021, this stylish 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom retreat boasts a striking, architecturally curved floor plan that frames panoramic views of the water and the bustling bridge walkway from every single window.
Designed as a luxurious waterfront escape, the light-filled main living space is outfitted with a cozy fireplace, Smart TV with satellite/cable, high-speed Wi-Fi, books, games, central heating, and a deluxe La-Z-Boy memory foam sofa sleeper for extra guests. Step outside onto your private balcony to watch passing yachts and kayakers, or head up to the spectacular shared rooftop deck and patio area to grill on the outdoor BBQ while soaking in panoramic views stretching from the BC Parliament Buildings out to the open ocean.
The fully renovated gourmet kitchen comes equipped with sleek appliances, cookware, dishes & utensils, dining spices, dishwasher, microwave, stove, oven, refrigerator, toaster, coffee maker, and a dedicated dining area. Sleep in absolute comfort in the primary suite, which features a grand King-sized bed and crisp linens. Additional features include in-suite laundry facilities with a washing machine and dryer, an elevator, hair dryer, iron and board, travel crib, wheelchair accessibility, and essential towels.
Perfectly positioned in Old Town directly on the waterfront, you are steps away from world-class dining, independent coffee shops, eclectic boutiques, and cultural attractions. Walk right out onto the seawall paths to launch your daily urban adventures or explore the local marina. CheckedIn also manages multiple premium units within this exact complex, providing an ideal setup for corporate groups or extended families wanting to stay close together.
