WATERFRONT DNTN LUX , WEST BALCONY, A/C, KING BDRM, FAB VIEWS - 90 day minimum

Welcome Travellers!
This luxurious King bdrm condo FRONTS sunny west center front directly On the Edge of Victoria's downtown harbor with NO ROAD OR TRAFFIC out front, in a seven story residential building, offering both scenic peacefulness and convenient access.
Why not enjoy breakfast or Happy Hour sunset on the balcony while watching up close seals frolic, Pacific cargoes move past under the impressive, new suspension bridge and rowing teams practise? Or on a cool evening, enjoy curling up by the living room fireplace with one of our books or a movie as the harbor lights twinkle on with takeout treats from the delicious ground floor restaurant. Wake refreshed from the comfort of the sumptuous KING SIZE pillow-top bed surrounded by carefully selected linens and furnishings. Enjoy a romantic second fireplace, in the bedroom, and view harbor activity while still in bed. (A comfortable Queen-size pull-out sofa bed is available in the living room).
The air in our condo does NOT share air sources within the building, but is both gas heated and electrically cooled specifically IN OUR unit protecting you from shared air except in public spaces. Our cleaning includes a full wipe down of surfaces with a bleach solution not just regular soap products to guard against viruses.
Cool off in our downtown Harbor's Edge comfort, with a/c, never needed as much as these warmer summers now. See our condo video of The Mermaid Suite Victoria BC to witness the comforts provided and the lovely setting with charming water taxis, actually little harbor ferries, zipping regularly from the wharf below to transport you, inexpensively, on the water to Victoria's many attractions. Should you wish, whale watching and kayaking excursions are just a few steps away plus bike rentals to enjoy truly scenic biking.
A short walk will bring you to all major downtown attractions, including the Empress Hotel and Convention Center, the Parliament Buildings, the Museum, and some of Victoria’s finest restaurants. Nearby are many boutiques, theatres and shopping opportunities. I always enjoy helping guests plan activities or suggesting restaurants when they share with me their preferences. Many are immediately outside our building just a short walk or harbor ferry thrill.
The four piece bath includes a Deep soaker tub for your relaxation, a shower and hair dryer. The kitchen is fully equipped including both a regular and convection oven for a short stay or a season. The rooftop full 360 degree view of the harbor, city and distant Washington state Olympic mountains is an excellent viewing point while using the communal bbq and patio furniture. I provide grocery store details for close by shopping and scenic country road driving into town details from the airport if that is of interest rather than the highway. We want all our guests to leave having Truly experienced Victoria’s beauty and variety. This is why Victoria received the 2023 Conde Nast Traveller Award for Best Small City in North America based on lifestyle variety and ease of access to so many local treasures, and beauty plus Fabulous eating!
Hiking gorgeous scenery, deep sea fishing, vineyard and fine food explorations all abound. We will happily pick you up at the airport or ferries for a reasonable charge if pre arranged well in advance.
We are 15 minutes walking distance from the Seaplane Terminal to Vancouver, an easy overnight escape,15 minutes from the downtown Victoria Seattle Ferry port, 35 minutes driving from the Victoria Airport, and 40 minutes from the British Columbia Ferry Terminal at Swartz Bay. We provide dedicated underground parking. and are happy to advise you with about grocery delivery, reduced rental car rates, and information on restaurants and attractions. Pets only by prior written arrangement. Our convenient location does not require a car since walking is close to most of what you need and busses are close. Renting a car for a day or two of exploration further away works well. In town most of our guests find a car expense unnecessary for daily use.
Do contact me to quote you a price. VRBO quotes its prices in $USD or in $CAD based on the country's flag you selected on the Top Right of the first page when you click into our site. Be careful to see in what currency your rent price is quoted so that you are comparing the same currency prices across all rentals.
VRBO provides owner phone numbers once a booking is made, but feel welcome to email questions before you book.

with this gorgeous view, and so many wonderful activities and restaurants close by. Our video brings all this description to life at The Mermaid Suite Victoria BC.

The condo was immaculate, we couldn’t have possibly picked a better location. We were right on the water front and easily able to walk to the major tourist hot spots. We were greeted by a very friendly condo manager/caretaker who was always available for us if we had any questions. A big thank you to her. We would certainly come and stay with you again. Thanks for sharing your home with us.

Fabulous Condo

My friend and I really appreciate the location of this condo. We have stayed in a different unit in the past but this unit we found is bigger than the other one. Even though it wasn’t cool enough outside to warrant using the fireplace, the fact that it was there for us to use if we wanted was a nice touch. The owner checked in with me to make sure that all was clean and ready for us upon arrival. There were a couple things that she and I were able to easily remedy. We would stay here again for sure.

Upper Harbour in Victoria

Dissatisfied for a 28 day stay. Unsecure WiFi, credit card was compromised within one minute of use. Poor lighting and air conditioning. No house cleaning, had to wash towels and provide supplies such as toilet paper, dish washer detergent and dish washing soap. Patio door was difficult to open. This problem was not resolved by owner during our extended stay. Problem with TV sound and inadequate channel selection for viewing. Nice location but loud music at night from local bars. We expected better from a VRBO listing.

Beautiful Victoria

Good location, very convenient to enjoy Victoria. Check in requires scheduling a time with a local point of contact, versus keyless entry. This resulted in a one hour wait to access property. Also point of contact entered unit when we were not on property. Property would benefit from updates to furniture and fixtures.

Perfect location overlooking waterfront.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We loved sitting on the balcony mornings and evenings and we fell in love with the adorable water taxis below. Early morning rowers went by. Evenings the lights of town and the blue ones on the bridge were enchanting. The location was perfect for many restaurants nearby, especially Chinatown. Note that for security your key fob only opens doors on your floor or the garage and rooftop. (As well as the front door. I made the mistake of roaming the building after going to the rooftop and had no fob to get back in. My husband came in handy.

This condo was in a great location. There are many shops, restaurants, pubs, coffee shops, etc. within walking distance. A few of our favorite places were Craft (microbrew/eatery), Union Pacific Coffee Company and The Irish Times Pub. The water taxis are just a few steps away. The view of the harbor is great. It was nice to have a reserved parking spot. We kept so busy that we didn’t even turn the TV on one time. The bed was comfortable which felt good after putting in over 14,000 steps each day enjoying the sights of Victoria and other nearby destinations. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful location

We spent the month of March escaping the Alberta winter in this perfectly located condo. Everything we needed to make it feel like home was provided. The delicious welcome bottle of champagne was a treat. We chose to fly as Victoria is a very walkable city and the location of the condo is ideal. We purchased bus passes for the month which was great if we got carried away with the sights and maybe walked too far one way! We did rent a car for a few days for longer excursions to Salt Spring Island and the Malahat Skywalk and Chemainus. The secure underground parking stall was a nice bonus. It is not an easy task to tear yourself away from the harbour view! Watching the harbour taxis, rowers, opening of the bridge, barges, tall ships, seals, otters and sea birds occupied hours. We hope to return one day!
