Reviews
The pond was gorgeous!
It is close to UVIC, H mart, a laundromat, and other tourist attractions, and it has many amenities and all the things needed to prepare our meal. Clean and cozy. The pond was gorgeous! We saw a duck and a hummingbird hanging out in the garden. The children enjoyed playing ping-pong and the piano. It is a wonderful place for a family or a couple.
Exceeded Expectations
This place exceeded our expectations. Will definitely by returning.
This was the best VRBO I have ever rented
After reading many reviews with some variation of, "This was the best VRBO I have ever rented," my expectations were high. In fact, I have to say - this may have been the best VRBO I have ever rented. Some VRBOs are like a good hotel - clean, simple, spartan. Some are like housesitting for a friend - full of the clutter of everyday life. Couple's Oasis is the latter, except the friend happens to be scrupulously clean, has impeccable taste in decorating, and is a fanatical cook. It has literally the best-equipped kitchen I've ever seen. The backyard is an amazing retreat, and we regretted not being able to try the swim pond or hot tub. The furniture and bedding are classy and comfortable. The location is fantastic for visiting the U Victoria area, and only 15-18 minutes from downtown. The hosts Louis and Tasha were friendly, helpful, and communicative. We will absolutely try to stay here again, or in one of their several other properties. Thanks for a great stay!
Bubbling water and birds singing!
This was one of the most beautiful and comfortable places we’ve stayed via Airbnb. The home is beautifully provisioned and the yard is fantastic. We loved sitting out back listening to the bubbling water and birds singing. The hosts were friendly and thoughtful. We would definitely choose again and highly recommend.
Simply sensational- lake, hot tub, games, comfy seating.
This is one of the best places we’ve ever stayed. Everything is great quality and the house has absolutely everything you need - especially in the kitchen. Best of all is the garden which is simply sensational- lake, hot tub, games, comfy seating.
Comfortable well-stocked home
This really is an oasis. A unique and beautiful backyard. The pond and sound of the waterfall are so relaxing and the covered patio spaces were great for both rainy and sunny days. Also a very comfortable well-stocked home with everything you could need.
A chef's dream.
Was very impressed with the space and the back garden especially. The kitchen is so incredibly well equipped. A chef's dream. Very eclectic in style but also very cozy and my family felt very at home. Sad to leave. Thanks to Louie and Tash for their efforts.
I'd live there.
I think this was the best Airbnb I’ve ever stayed at ! ,they have thought of everything in this cozy home , there is everything you need ,and more . Bed was extremely comfortable , we used the hot tub it was chilly out . Wonderful place I’d live there
Felt like a resort.
This place was GORGEOUS. The layout of the house is so nice and big. Perfect for our trip. My husband and I traveled with our medium/large dogs and a friend and we never felt on top of each other. The kitchen and dining room were huge! They had everything possible to cook with. We thought we’d be eating out for our three night stay but ended up cooking two of the nights! The backyard is magical. Hummingbirds galore. The pond provides beautiful sounds all day. Beds were comfy and pillows weren’t stiff. The hot tub was a dream. Felt like a resort. This place is a real gem. We already booked another stay!
AMAZING place for a couple’s retreat!
This is an AMAZING place for a couple’s retreat! We felt so welcome and right at home during our stay! Louis and Tasha are wonderful hosts and they’ve put a lot of thought and care into creating a wonderful experience for their guests
