Perfect getaway for our anniversary!
My partner and I couldn’t be more grateful for our host Trinita.🙏 We stay for 3 nights during our 10yr anniversary, not only did Trinita surprise us with a gorgeous handpicked bouquet of flowers from her property, she couldn’t have been more kind and accommodating…the perfect host! Trinita it was a pleasure meeting you, Thank You again sharing your space with us, we’d love to stay again❤️

Ideal Getaway
The Tiny House suite more than met our expectations. It was very tasteful and of high quality, as well as of a comfortable size. Our host was very helpful and checked to see we had everything we needed. The small deck would be ideal for enjoying the view during a warmer time of the year.

Thank you, it was great to meet you both and I’m so glad you enjoyed yourselves. If you come again the dock will be finished, making the kayak launching much easier. I’m glad that you enjoyed cooking in the fire pit, winter visits do have advantages!

Just Wonderful!
We really enjoyed our stay. It was a perfect place to get away for a few days. Lots to see and do just a few minutes drive away. The soap provided was so nice we went and bought some more to take home. Weather cooperated and we did lots of walking and site seeing. We brought basic food for breakfasts/lunches which was perfect since we had a completely equipped kitchen. We enjoyed supper out at local restaurants.

Peaceful and Relaxing
Our stay here was everything we were hoping for - and more. It was pretty wonderful to sit and admire the view from our comfy nest as well as venturing out into the many provincial parks. We love forests and water and were surrounded by them everywhere we looked. Trinita was an amazing host and we were so pleased to get to know her. We would definitely return to her home again if we come this way again. Thanks Trinita for sharing it with us!

Thank you Cathe! You and Rene were amazing guests, actually beyond amazing! I was so grateful for the way you left the suite. Somehow I hit an incorrect button on the star rating. I hit 4 and it should have been a 10! Unfortunately the ratings on the VRBO scale only go to 5 (boho). I am glad that you found all of Victoria’s best fish and chip shops and all of the other wonderful things that you found in this area. I was so fortunate to have met you two on the occasion of your momentous anniversary! I feel that you came as clients and you left as wonderful new friends. I very appreciate you finding the tiny suite and the great visits that we had! Again, I am sorry that I hit the wrong button and I am trying to correct that with VRBO.

World class beautiful property
This is a gorgeous place and enjoyed smoking our salmon that we caught with Al Crowe with a pick up from the dock. The fishing was amazing. This is the nicest place in Sooke and the surrounding areas. We are already booked for next year. Can’t wait to come back and relax.

Perfect Relaxing Getaway!
We recently had the pleasure of staying at this amazing property and it definitely met our expectations. The view from the property is absolutely beautiful. The property was very clean and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Trinita provided us with recommendations for things to do in the area and we discovered wonderful places to explore that we wouldn't have found otherwise.

Tiny house peaceful, not so comfy.
Quiet yes, clean yes. Amenities very lacking. No tv, no microwave, and only one sofa chair in livingroom. We had to share the comfy chair with a not so comfy deck chair we moved inside from the deck. Taking turns on the comfy chair not my idea of romantic getaway. Bathroom soap provided was miniscule bars. No shampoo or body wash. No instructions left for how to use gas oven, dishwasher, recycling, or a/c.

Some people do study the amenities page prior to their visit and understand that there was no TV or Microwave listed. The soap that is provided is a small amount for environmental reasons. Many guests have come and enjoyed the view, nature and liked sharing the comfy chair for two. A TV and microwave and tiny couch have now been added to the tiny suite. I will add directions on how to turn the oven and dishwasher on as well as recycling and heat pump/AC instructions for future guests. Thank you for your suggestions.

Serene getaway surrounded by outdoor activities
We had an amazing time staying here. The home itself is cute and the view is spectacular. It's very close to so many different hiking and biking trails - every one we went on was amazing. The views, the weather. Perfect for a quiet, relaxing vacation. Trinita was very responsive and knowledgeable about the area, and a great host. All of her recommendations were spot on!

Coffee on the ocean view deck while watching the neighbourhood deer & bunnies.
Trinita was a fantastic host. Communication was easy, we felt comfortable and at ease throughout our stay. The suite is new, modern, very clean, quiet and not too far out of the way. Everything you could ever want is supplied. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the ocean view balcony while watching deer munch on foliage as the baby bunnies hopped around. There’s lots of walking,hiking,biking,kayaking,SUP activities minutes away from the property. Definitely recommend.

This is an amazing little place where we were able to completely unwind. We highly recommend this!
Everything was great! The place is super cute and the views are amazing. The host made our stay special with a few “treats” waiting for us in our room. The only thing we regret is not booking this place for a longer time. One of the best places we have ever rented and we do this often. Thanks for sharing your tiny home with us!
