Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Gabriola

The place far exceeded our expectations. It was equipped with EVERYTHING we would have needed to not go anywhere the whole time. The kitchen was stocked with all the cooking necessities, the kind beds in every room with vaulted ceilings made us feel like the boujee girls we want to be. The views were breathtaking and being able to have all of our meals outdoors with heat and covering made it so memorable. The house came with cars and outdoor games too to use on the nice open yard. It really felt like the place was ours. The icing on the cake was the chairs, wood and starters to make our own little beach fire right below the house and roast marshmallows while watching the sunset. Couldn’t recommend this stay enough! Definitely coming back!

Absolutely stunning location - saw loads of wildlife from the terrace, and an amazing view over the water. Property was also very well supplied with a super modern kitchen and ample bed and bath space. Will be back!

We have a lovely stay at this Orcas Island getaway. A perfect place to unwind and watch the ocean through the trees. Communication from the host was great and we found everything we needed at the AirBnB.

Lovely home that feels relaxing and cozy! Courtney was very accommodating and easy to communicate with.

Great stay as always!!

Coastal retreat was lovely and perfect for two couples. 2 bathrooms seemed like quite a luxury. Suite was clean, view and property were beautiful. Dyan greeted us when we arrived. Dyan and Des were responsive and friendly. Would definitely recommend this property and would for sure stay again. Everything was exactly as described.

A very comfortable homely place - “secret walk” down to the nearby beach involving a bit of scrambling which our little grandsons loved - a real getaway- house had everything we needed plus fire pit and bbq - a place you’ll want to return to and we hope we will

We loved this amazing view home in Nanaimo. It is comfortable and extremely clean. Brian is a wonderful host, very welcoming and helpful. He has gone the extra mile to make your stay memorable by having so many extras available for your enjoyment like kayaks, crab traps and even extra shoes! The home has an incredible view and water access that offers a beautiful place to relax each day. We saw orcas, humpbacks, and otters from the deck! My 4 yr old grandson loved watching the ferries and float planes. Nanaimo was so fun. We are planning on coming back and definitely want to stay at this home again.

Perfect location and great stay. The suite was clean, and provided with everything needed! Host was warm and friendly and always accommodating. Would 100% stay again.

We had a wonderful stay at Jane’s ! The suite is close to the the Cowichan Valley Trail ( part of the Trans Canada Trail ) which we cycled for 2 days. Also close to town and restaurants and the famous totems of Duncan. Lots of lovely touches and a very comfortable bed . Would highly recommend Jane’s air bnb .

Lydia's place was great for us! So clean, had everything we needed, perfect location. She's very easy to reach anytime and a lovely person. As noted by others there is construction nearby and ambulances bc of nearby hospital but it's only in the day and we got pretty used to it. It's one of the nicest places we've stayed so unless you need quiet all day and won't be going out I wouldn't hesitate to book this lovely place.

I had a great time staying at the garden suite! Everything was beautiful, private, cozy and clean. My boyfriend and I stayed here for a week and had a wonderful time, the location was great and close to Kitsilano beach and restaurants! Sarah is a great host!

Two words gorgeous views!!! Looked forward to having my cup of coffee on Kelley & Kent’s patio every morning. A very peaceful location tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Ganges, but still less than five minute trip into town. Both Kelley & Kent were very welcoming and accommodating to our early check in. Their air bnb had all the amenities you could need to make you feel right at home. Beds were super comfy! I would HIGHLY recommend booking this accommodation, you won’t be disappointed! :) Enjoy!

This property is an absolute gem, we loved being there! The views are utterly breathtaking. The property is very clean, and has so much warmth and charm. Vicki is warm, gracious, and helpful, with great recommendations for hiking and a wealth of interesting history about the area. We look forward to returning!

Beautiful condo in a perfect location for our trip. Easy to navigate area, grocery and other necessities nearby. Absolutely peaceful environment and always felt very safe. Well stocked kitchen with everything we needed. Highly recommend.

Friendly and attentive hosts, freshly baked goods and breakfast provided which is a lovely touch. Thank you very much.

Great host great place

Sophia was a wonderful host and communicated very well. The basement suite is nestled in the woods along a beautiful tree line and creek, tended to with spectacular flowers. The neighborhood is calm, quiet, and private though a bit removed from local amenities (supermarket ~20 min walk with hills, playground ~15 min walk with hills); we called uber/lyft for most things but having a car would have been ideal. The suite was clean, comfortable, and highly functional for our group. The living areas and bedrooms were spacious and there are 2 bathrooms which is a HUGE win. We loved sitting on the back patio on the lounge furniture, underneath their electric heater, listening to the birds and the creek passing by. If there is one con you need to be aware of here, it is the lack of proper kitchen: expect a small mini-fridge, microwave, toaster, water-boiler, keurig, utensils, and cups; we knew about this ahead of time and still felt like we got all our value from our stay.

Super responsive, proactive and accommodating

Max really takes care of his place and it was even better then as shown on Airbnb. . Highly recommend booking this place.

We had the most amazing stay at Vahid's place! Communication with Vahid was easy, and he always responded quickly. His house is tricky to find, but he sent us detailed driving instructions including photos of the potentially confusing drive, which was greatly helpful. Everything about the house is as described, but the VIEWS! Even seeing the listing online, we still weren't prepared for the jaw dropping views from the house. Just about every room has an amazing view of the water, and there are expansive balconies and terraces to walk around and enjoy the water views from too. The cherry on top was how kind Vahid is. He made us feel very welcome, supplied us with some essentials in the refrigerator, and was very understanding when we thought we had lost our keys! (We eventually found them.) We have nothing but rave reviews about Vahid and his house, and we hope we can make it back to stay again sometime.

A sharp modern glass tree house with a butterfly roof surrounded by trees - that makes for a comfortable stay & peaceful positive energy. We very much enjoyed the home and setting. Walls of glass floor to ceiling make it bright & a sense of light energy too. The landscaping is well done so that is nice on the eyes also. On our trip there happened to councide with very early morning & all day heavy machinery construction right next door, even on the Easter holiday. However that does not change my 5 star review. The place itself was excellent. The construction will be temporary + not always heavy machinery. And soon it will end. I just mention this so renters can get more certainty on what will be happening during the days they book. I highly recommend this rental it's a perfect place for 2 people and has a 2nd bed open to the main area that extra family could sleep in. We used that bed in the main room as a cozy place to read. Great master BR giant windows out to trees.

Alice’s house was beautiful inside! Very thoughtfully decorated, the tatami mats were really cool, and there was tons of space! Would definitely book again!

The place is amazing, and Billy was a great host. Every part of the property and accommodation is great. We especially enjoyed the private river access, sauna, and comfortable, well set up cabin. The space is also super flexible with lots to do, lots of places to hang out, and works for big groups. Finally, we loved how well prepared and clear things were in terms of pre-made fire places, instructions, etc. Great experience and hope to return for sure.
