Alexandra's 3 bedroom Vancouver home was a colourful, convenient and cozy place for our 3 day stay over the New Year's holiday. The Kitsilano (Kits) neighbourhood is very walkable, with great restaurants and shops nearby (and the mountain backdrop is spectacular). Kits is also close enough to downtown that you can stroll across the Burrard Bridge, to explore Gastown and Yaletown.

Alexandra's home is ideally-suited to a family with children. The kitchen was well-appointed, with everything we needed to prepare meals. The Master with shared en suite was comfortable for myself and my husband. The other 2 bedrooms are children's bedrooms. The lower bedroom has bunk beds. The bedroom on the second floor has a "loft bed" (single upper bunk bed) with a very pretty view. There is also a couch and desk to work at on the second floor.

We were pleased that Alexandra and her husband were readily available by text messaging to answer our questions. They were also very helpful in sending back a favourite sweater that I had forgotten! (Oops!)

Alexandra's Kitsilano home provided the base for a great family vacation in Vancouver.
