This was my first trip to Victoria and staying at Valerie's place made it ideal. It has left me with a beautiful impression of this part of Canada. The house is stylish, very clean, quiet, comfortable, well-supplied with everything you need, and in a perfect location with a lovely water view. In either direction are gorgeous walks along the sea or through quaint neighborhoods. Valerie has thought of everything one might need to have a wonderful stay, and she added extra touches that really made it feel welcoming. She also responded quickly when I had a question. Once I was there I was tempted to send for my things and never leave! If I return to Victoria, I would definitely see if the house is available again.
