LOVED IT!!
This home was perfect for our family of 5. We've stayed in some other homes in the area and they didn't compare. What we particularly appreciated was while the home was in a very mature neighborhood, being virtually new, it possessed all the amenities and conveniences of a new home. Everything our delightful host, Adrianne, represented to us was 100% accurate. Adrianne was kind enough to meet us later in the evening, when it was convenient for us. She gave us an orientation to the property, as well as a thumbnail sketch of the immediate neighbourhood - shopping, coffee shops, restaurants, groceries, wine, recreation, etc.
Location could not have better! Walking distance to downtown, Granville Island, 4th Avenue, Kits Beach, Jericho Beach, etc.
One thing we tend to hear from time to time is - "You're only sleeping there so it's really not worth spending any extra money on accommodation". NOT THE CASE! After having stayed at numerous vacation rentals throughout the world, we've learned that one thing that turns good into great/extraordinary is having a nice place to come home to after a busy day of excursions. This place is worth the extra money!
We'd have no hesitation in recommending the property and would be very pleased to stay here again!
Hope this helps,
