A beautifully restored heritage building from 1903, thoughtfully redesigned in 2019 by award-winning architects — blending historic charm with modern comfort. Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined street in Vancouver’s beloved West End, this suite offers the perfect mix of calm and convenience. Just steps from your door, you’ll find cozy cafés, local restaurants, English Bay Beach, Stanley Park trails — and so much more, all within easy walking distance. A few thoughtful touches to make your stay extra pleasant: 🧺 A self-serve breakfast basket with fresh ingredients like bread, eggs, cheese, milk, and juice — ready in the fridge 🧃 Complimentary welcome snacks 🚗 Parking within walking distance ✈️ Airport pick-up/drop-off service available upon request (fee applies) Whether you’re here for work or leisure, we hope this space feels as warm and welcoming as home.
We’re a fun-loving family living in beautiful Vancouver. I’m passionate about food, travel, and creating spaces that feel like home. Hosting brings me joy — I believe it’s the little touches and genuine care that make a stay special. We’re here to make your visit warm, easy, and memorable.
Right Across the Street: Nelson Park — A lush green space with community gardens, kids’ playground, and benches under tall trees. Great for a quiet morning walk, reading outdoors, or letting the kids (or pups) play. Just outside your door is the vibrant heart of the West End. Cafés, restaurants, and local shops along Davie Street bring the neighborhood to life with warmth and character. A short stroll takes you to the golden sunsets and sea breeze of English Bay, or the shaded trails and seawall of Stanley Park — all just minutes' drive away. West End Farmers Market (seasonal, just in the park) — Fresh produce, baked goods, and a cozy weekend vibe. • Small Local Cafés & Bakeries — Independent spots tucked into the neighborhood, perfect for morning coffee or afternoon treats • Grocery Stores — Safeway and Whole Foods are both walkable for convenient grocery runs. • Libraries, Yoga Studios & Gyms — For guests staying longer, the neighborhood supports a slow, wellness-centered lifestyle
