We had a great stay. The place was quiet and secluded, yet close to some nice local hikes. Scott was a wonderful host. We barely needed his assistance, but whenever something was missing, such as an extra ingredient or a small kitchen item, he was always available while still giving us complete privacy.

This property, and the property host, exceeded our expectations! The location itself was incredible, the suite was larger than anticipated and very well-appointed, and the host was extremely thorough prior to check-in (offering many suggestions in advance of the check-in) as well as while on-property. He was respectful to us as guests and offered to procure anything we may have forgotten. We are very much looking forward to our next visit.

Classic East Sooke

Aesthetically lovely: the setting and the decor. The host was generous with his assistance. We especially appreciated help at check in. The property has many beautiful staircases and we are an older couple.

My son and I had an amazing stay. The house is modern, super clean and organized. We enjoyed sitting in the garden and having all our meals outside. The view is like an interactive painting changing in every part of the day. Scott is an amazing host and masters the equilibrium of being present for help and hospitality and respecting our peaceful holiday feeling. Even though we came from Europe, we hope to come here again with the family.

What an amazing place Scott has. The views are stunning! The yard is perfect and nothing gets you closer to the ocean than this piece of heaven. We were extremely comfortable and Scott was so helpful with everything. My kids are all fancy little kids with good taste and they loved it so so much!

We found love in the seaside cove

What an absolute vibe from the second we arrived to the emotional departure. the views in east sooke were exactly what we wanted and it’s truly natures gallery… the only regret we had was not staying longer (and going to bustling Victoria after living here in tranquility for a week). All of Scott’s recommendations are spot on and he’s the best host. Do yourself a favor and book it and have a couple ice cream sandwiches on us.

Slice of Heaven

We thoroughly enjoyed our five nights at Sea Side Cove. The house was beautiful and comfortable, with everything we needed -- all in a setting of trees and abundant flowers, overlooking Sooke basin. The location was great, with access to restaurants, breweries, and other local attractions, and about a 45-minute drive to Victoria. We have stayed in a lot of VRBOs and Scott stands out as a host. He made sure we had everything we needed, including information about the area. His friendliness and graciousness were part of why we enjoyed this place so much and will likely be back.

Tranquil Beauty in Eastern Sooke

Seaside Cove was the perfect hide-away for us and our teenage son who enjoyed his privacy in the upstairs unit. Both units are extremely well appointed, taste- and thoughtfully decorated and highly functional (great beds, bathrooms and laundry room). The absolute highlights are the deck and backyard with a glorious view of the gorgeous Sooke Basin, which one can enjoy from almost everywhere in the unit. The location is great for hiking and kayaking-- one can even have a kayak delivered to the property by one of the local outfits. The owner, Scott, lives right above the apartment: He was extremely respectful of our privacy (we almost never saw him around), but he was always available through text, offering useful and knowledgable local advice-- the perfect set-up for us; we would LOVE to return!

What an incredible place with a great host!

When I arrived, the location and view were beyond what I imagined. To be able to watch the change of light and weather over the water was beautiful. The rental was so thoughtfully appointed that I had everything I needed. East Sooke is the perfect location as a home base to explore the beaches and trails and really, of all the parks I went into up the west part of the island, the East Sooke Park with it’s Coast Trail ( in different sections) was as spectacular as any of the rest and just down the road. Scott was so pleasant and offered great information about the area and happenings. He was also available and generous with his time, helping me navigate some communication challenges. Equally, Scoot was respectful of my space and this stay really became almost a personal retreat for me. Great local massage therapist as well. I highly recommend and would defiantly stay here again. Thanks Scott!

East Sooke is a hidden jewel. Perfect unobstructed bay view from the suite and offering close access to great hiking trails. Scott is an amazing host focused on exceeding guest's expectations. The two bedroom suite matches the pictures exactly and was spotlessly clean on our arrival. Book this!

This is the perfect place for nature lovers. The VRBO is situated with a view over an inlet and is surrounded by trees. We saw otters, seals, deer and bald eagles from the deck alone. The home itself is immaculately clean. The kitchen is well-stocked. And the host, Scott, is extremely accommodating. The local area has beautiful natural beaches, lovely forests and excellent restaurants. We can't recommend it enough as a wonderful place to recharge.
