10.0 / 10.0

Amazing stay! Property is one in a thousand! We are seasoned travellers and have seen many places. If I could give score above 10 I would gladly do it! Clean, equipped and peaceful. Landscape amazing. Spent last two days at the patios next to the ocean. Such a jewel! Thank you guys for everything! Will definitely return.

8.0 / 10.0

The view is excellent, but it's not as private as the pictures lead you to believe as the main house is quite close to the cottage. As other reviews have mentioned, the driveway is a real problem. Guests park at the top, walk down 3 stone steps to get to the steep gravel driveway. If you have any mobility issues at all, this is not the place for you.That said, we really enjoyed Sooke. All the locals were very nice. Since there isn't a binder or guide book in the cabin with local recommendations, here are some of the things we enjoyed doing while in Sooke:1) We rented peddle kayaks and saw a pod of orcas go through Sooke Harbor.2) We rented e-bikes and rode on the Galloping Goose trail. 3) We went for a hike in Sooke Potholes park.4) Our favorite restaurants were Route 14 and Stickleback Oceanfront Cider & Taphouse.5) We shopped for groceries at Village Food Market and bought beer, ciders, and wine at Castle Beer & Wine Store.

Wonderful place!

6.0 / 10.0

We stayed here for 4 days in July. The location is good, the view spectacular, the landscaping excellent, the house was stocked. However, getting to the cabin from you car is a task. You park your car at the top of the hill and are expected to drag your wheeled luggage down a steep hill (50% angle) on gravel to a path leading to the cabin- gravel again. So this applies to getting groceries and taking garbage out. Now we are 82 & 76 yrs which made it difficult for us as we didn't want to fall. If you are 20 no problem perhaps. As a result we only ate breakfast there- too much hassle getting groc. there. The driveway could be asphalted with drainage so it would be so much more accessible. A big tire wagon could be left for the guests to get their stuff down the hill. I called the owner and he did let us drive part way down the driveway to help get the luggage down.

10.0 / 10.0

Stunning views, great accommodation for the two of us. Tiny hills to climb if you have any agility issues.

10.0 / 10.0

Beautifully appointed cottage. Fully equipped kitchen & laundry. Amazing views of the Juan de Fuca/Salish Sea! Very peaceful and not too far from downtown Victoria. Only complaints: walking down the gravel driveway/stone steps which was steep and a little unstable to carry our luggage.And the bed seemed small for two but it was cozy.

10.0 / 10.0

Very peaceful and close to all amenities. Lovely accommodations

10.0 / 10.0

Salish Sunrise Cottage was an amazing rental. Clean, private, the grounds/landscaping was beautiful! We especially loved sitting in the hot tub in the evenings looking out towards the strait and sitting in the patio chairs looking for wildlife in the mornings. We saw sea lions, bald eagles, and an otter while sitting on those chairs. Absolutely beautiful views! Close to town but far enough that you felt like you were in the in your own private space. Highly recommend this place.

It is exactly as described. Great view, clean, and convenient to Sooke. We enjoyed our four nights.

The views from the unit are stunning. It was a joy to wake up every morning and open the sliding doors to hear the ocean. Couldn’t have asked from a better stay!

10.0 / 10.0

This is our second time staying in Sooke. This property is beautifully landscaped, and the view is breathtaking. It is a little close to the main house, but, we really didn't see the other people and they ended up leaving a few days into our stay. The cottage is very nice and had everything that we needed. We couldn't get any local stations on the TV, but we were able to connect to Netflix which was perfectly fine. I knocked off a star on the cleanliness because a couple of the bath towels were not clean. Otherwise, the owner maintains a stunning property. We enjoyed the hot tub daily. The cover was super easy to maneuver. (which hasn't been our experience with other properties in the past). The bed was very comfortable and it was very quiet both day and night. It was easy to adjust the temperature (A/C). The walk from the parking to the cottage is a little steep, but well maintained and graveled. Overall, this is a lovely beachfront cottage in a wonderful location. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely stay here again.

This place was absolutely stunning. The view and surroundings were beautiful. Being so close to the ocean and watching the sea lions was just so lovely.

Amazing stay on the Salish Sea. Spectacular sunrises from your deck. Loved soaking in the hot tub whilst enjoying the seals swimming nearby. The kitchen is well stocked. We’re sure you’ll love your stay here. There are two houses on this property. This accommodation is to the right, when walking down to the cottage.

10.0 / 10.0

This property is the real deal! Impeccably clean, well supplied with quality fixtures and that view! Who needs phones, tablets or tvs when you can watch seabirds, seals and, if truly blessed like we were, a pod of whales from the comfort of the living room! Or cruise ships lit up against the shadow of the mountains at dusk. The area is beautiful, plenty of trails to explore for all ages and levels of experience. Then soak the hikes off in the hot tub! Whiffen Point, a short drive is a wonderful way to start or end the day - and a popular dog walking spot. Check in instructions were clear, thank you Rob for accommodating our booking issue. Can't say enough about this gem. Miss it already.

The studio is just as nice as pictured. All the amenities are as promised. We had a lovely stay. It is peaceful and absolutely stunning. The location is ideal for those looking to get away from it all. Do note however : the parking is uphill from the unit and getting heavy luggage or gear from the parking spot to and from the unit can be a challenge.... but oh soooo worth it!

Had a romantic getaway here and it did not disappoint. The property and views, especially from the hot tub, were spectacular. As others have said, the walk down to the cottage house is a bit steep, and the main house is rather close. We still felt we had privacy and will definitely stay here again.

10.0 / 10.0

The cottage and host exceeded my expectations. The cottage had great amenities, was clean, comfortable, and delivered on the fabulous ocean views. The host communicated well and was responsive to any inquiries I had. Instructions were clear. It is located conveniently between Sooke and the Juan de Fuca marine trail. If you're looking for a relaxing retreat with your partner, I highly recommend.

Highly recommend a getaway here!

My husband and I stayed at this cabin for our 10th anniversary and this property blew us away! Although our stay was hampered by two consecutive days of rain, we enjoyed hopping from town to town, and exploring beaches and trails. In the mornings and evenings, we spent our time listening to the low lull of the ocean and watching the plentiful wildlife from the hot tub. We were able to see seals, a couple families of geese and goslings, as well as hummingbirds. The overall landscaping and flora on the property was gorgeous! We were slightly bummed that we were not able to experience the fire, but overall we were so wonderfully pleased with the communication, location, and our stay. Thank you, again!
