Beach house- Stunning Ocean & City Views | West Van Retreat

The view and location were just fantastic. Did I mention the view? Plenty of room to hang out, a usable kitchen, great timely communication with the host, and location close to a mall with everything. There were also some lovely outdoor spaces which we wish the weather would let us use. Next time!

It was really welcoming in the house. It had great energy.I read the binder for the garbage information.It said to bring it out back.Which I did.But those crows are wild.

This is a lovely home and Maya the host was very responsive to any questions.

We had a wonderful time. The place was clean and comfortable. The stores were close and the views were amazing.

Nice location

Property and host were excellent. Cannot beat the location. Thank you!

Great view and nice rooms.

Great location, owner was very responsive to any questions we had during stay. Great view!!

The house was located up on the hillside overlooking downtown Vancouver, Stanley Park, and Burrard Inlet. You could walk down to Ambleside Park and the Village at Park Royal where the shops and restaurants were. Short drive to Capilano Suspension Bridge Park and Stanley Park. The house itself was a little older and had a lot of charm. It was hard to find an outlet for chargers. Kitchen was updated. Bedrooms were cozy. Basement had a bedroom, living room with TV, laundry room and second bathroom. There were plenty of towels and even beach towels. Kitchen was well stocked with all cooking necessities. Overall a great stay. There was one portable AC unit in the living room, which needed it, because the large windows let in a lot of light and heat. Luckily evenings were cool and there were a few fans available for use. The front patio over the single car garage was a great place to enjoy the breathtaking views during the evening hours as there was not any shade otherwise.

The view from the living room and deck is spectacular across Burrard Inlet to Kitsilano and Point Grey. The house is in walking distance to many coffee shops / bars / restaurants in the upscale Ambleside neighbourhood of West Vancouver. Park Royal mall is a short distance away. The hostess was very responsive to any questions we had. The weather was quite warm for our weekend stay in June - a portable AC unit was provided in the front living room (which has the great view but also full sunshine during the day). Fans were available in all the bedrooms to cool things down a bit. The house was very clean and the beds were comfortable. The downstairs TV room has cable tv and a VCR, the TV in the upstairs living room has netflix and streaming services. Good location, good value, good views, good communication with owner.

Loved the access to the water, shopping and nature, all with a great view.

This house was perfect for our family (2 adults and 4 teens) and close to many of the sights we planned to visit. Lots of great restaurants in West Van, just down the street, and a great park on the beach.

My family attended a wedding on the north shore. This location was easy to get around. Close to shopping and close to Stanley Park. Not to mention the great view from the house. This is a well maintained older home. We enjoyed our stay very much.

We had a nice long weekend here - central to lots of activities with a beautiful view.

Spacious and clean house in a great location with a fantastic view. We enjoyed our stay. Maya is very responsive and helpful. We look forward to stay here again.

Within 5-15 min to capilano bridge and grouse mountain. Lots of good eating nearby as well. House was clean, had plenty of amenities, bed was comfy and the view was spectacular.

Charming house with a great view; pretty, upscale neighbourhood. The house has a few minor quirks due to it’s vintage (limited electrical outlets) but it’s well-appointed for a family vacation home, and I enjoyed some of the remaining original architectural details. We all enjoyed our stay and the city!

Great location, great views and house was clean. The portable AC does not adequately cool the house and it was hot at night. The main deck could use some attention, some rotten wood and the umbrella is not usable. Manager was responsive when I called about the AC and house being hot.

This location is perfect for a family of 2 adults and 3 kids or for an adult family (no more than 5 people). We had four adults (3 siblings, one parent), and it was exactly what we needed. Comfortable, location was perfect (you need a car). The house was clean, the host was responsive, and the views were amazing. I loved how we were able to drive in and out of the city and around the surrounding areas with ease. You are close to a very upscale mall and a whole foods. Beaches near by. Our hike at Capilano was amazing. The food is wonderful (don't forget Richmond).
