How great it has been to stay here! This wrap-around penthouse apartment has floor to ceiling glass walls and towers above the surrounding buildings so the view is awesome. Sunsets, sunrises, snow-capped mountains are all photo ops.

The interior of the apartment is welcoming, whimsical. All the basics-full kitchen, luxurious sheets, and towels, large tv’s-are there but there are surprises: The living room is a bright Capri blue with prints from India blasting hot scarlet touches. The kitchen-a moss tea-green wash. The 2nd shower is also a steam room with a small window peeking thru the corridor to the sky outside. Best of all, a silver staircase spirals up to a private open 1200 sq ft terrace-with lots of seating, a layout of kitchen cupboards with barbeque, a large dining table and a steaming hot tub always ready for a dip.
Great location-short walk to the beach, bike rentals, ferries, all the stores and restaurants. Not for the faint of hearing though. The apartment is smack in the center of the action-St Paul’s Hospital and a Homeless Shelter are just a block away. For us though, coming from the silence of mountain life, the sirens and partying and even the truck convoy last month are a reaffirmation of our connectedness to each other, our new Covid open hearts.
Mandy and Elsa manage the apartment gracefully and are always good humored and available! We shall return for sure!
