Jason's listing on Gonzales Beach was perfect for our family's spring break get-away to Victoria. Jason was highly responsive to emails, very warm and welcoming. The home was incredibly well located - just a block to a calm, sandy beach and park perfect for families and dogs to walk. In summer it would be perfect for swimming, sunbathing, kayaking and skim boarding. It was also an easy walk to a shopping centre with coffee, groceries, coffee, a pub and restaurants. The home is a quick drive to all downtown tourist destinations, too. The house was the ideal size for our family of two adults and two teens. Everyone got their own room with bath. Two large tv's and excellent Wi-Fi kept the kids happy. And the peace and quiet of the area was very relaxing for all. We have lots of friends and family in Victoria and we hosted two dinner gatherings while there. The lack of a dining table was unexpected but there is plenty of seating so we just made the gatherings more informal. And our guests all liked the place, too. The house was built in 1911 and is now totally renovated with a few, minor outstanding items still in the works. And, as with renos of old homes (we own one ourselves), the house had a few quirks. But nothing major and we'd love to stay again! This was our first Airbnb experience and we're sold on the concept. Thanks, Jason, for a great trip to the Island.
