We stayed in Celine's condo for two weeks for our honeymoon and first visit to Vancouver Island and loved every minute of it.
The apartment was spacious, light and in a great location for discovering Victoria and it's surrounding areas. We ate somewhere new every evening which was about a 10 minute walk before you started really finding a lovely array of cuisines. There was also a super market 5 minutes away that could easily cater for a more eat at home stay. The main attraction for our stay was the whale watching and there was again a multitude of companies at the harbour (20-25 minute walk) and coming back to our home away from home really made our stay in Victoria perfection.
Public transport was easy as well as local taxi services and a local tourist information centre which made travelling to Vancouver and Sooke extremely straight forward.
On arrival simple instructions and even a celebratory bottle of bubbley and box of chocolates were left for us newlyweds and after a long day of travelling the welcoming feel of the apartment gave us a great place to crash and access to the WiFi and Netflix were the home comforts that made us feel instantly at ease. Pur flight had delays of a good few hours and getting in contact with Celine was easy at every point and did not add any stress to our day of travelling.
Celine made us aware of building work that was taking place next to the apartment months before our arrival which was a great touch of honesty - the work did start early but did not encroach on our stay. What isn't mentioned is thw buildings security system which I was extremely impressed with. I really had a sense of safety for our belongings due to the intelligent key fob system installed.
If we are ever lucky enough to return to Victoria I would absolutely choose this apartment again and again.
