The property is amazing with spectacular views and gracious hosts. My family and I were lucky enough to see whales, eagles, dear and bunnies from the comfort of the living room window. Debby and John are both amazing hosts happy to assist with information about the area and any other inquiries we had. The location is close to everything youâd need and yet very quiet and peaceful. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get away for a great trip to Nanaimo.
Easy check in with helpful hosts. Everything as described in the listing was spot on.Well appointed and well maintained, it was a delight to stay at Debby and John's suite. Easy access to restaurants and grocery stores and the emergency dentist that I required as recommended by Debby!We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
This is the perfect studio with an amazing 180 degree view of the Strait of Georgia and mainland British Columbia. The interior is very nicely designed. The views are just unbelievable. We found ourselves content a couple days to just sit in front of the picture windows and watch the whales and eagles. Debby and John were great hosts. We would not hesitate at all to stay here again.
Great location, amazing views from the suite and the 2 decks, clean and well equipped suite, and very accommodating and friendly owners. We would definitely recommend and plan to return someday!
Enjoyed our stay once again!A perfect place to relax and be mesmerized by the view but also close to most amenities.Love it here and hope to return soon!
Debbie and John were very accommodating and helpful with settling in as well as providing tourist advice. The views were stellar, the space cosy and homey. Couldnât have asked for a better stay. We will miss it!
This VRBO has become our yearly favorite winter destination. The hosts are wonderfully welcoming and the accommodation is completely outfitted for all of your needs. Finally, WHAT A VIEW!!. This place is 11/10
I had a fantastic time staying here! The views were breathtaking/stunning with access to multiple viewpoints inside/outside and so much wildlife to see (ex whales, sea lions, eagles). It was very close to easily accessible walking trails. The unit was very well equipped and had everything you would need to feel at home and very clean. The host was very friendly and welcoming and knowledgeable to share about the surrounding area/wildlife. Thank you for a wonderful peaceful stay!
This is our second stay at this property. The location and the view across the Strait of Georgia to the mainland are superb. Eagles soar by a wall of windows facing north, south and east. A fully-equipped kitchen with cherry wood cabinets and granite countertops, spacious bathroom with storage shelves for your belongings plus a washer/dryer, and a comfortable studio living room complete with fireplace and cherry wood flooring provide for a restful, luxury home-away-from-home.
We loved our stay at Debby and John's suite. They are amazing hosts, responsive, so friendly, informative. The unit was thoughtfully furnished with everything covered. The ocean view, the gorgeous gardens, fully equipped kitchen were the best we have seen. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this suite. Thank you!!
You will want for nothing during you stay at Big Vista!
Debby and John are the best hosts we have ever encountered and their stunning Vrbo rental, with its gorgeous views, is our favourite of the many we have stayed at.
This was our fourth year staying at Big Vista and we are already looking forward to returning next year!!
We enjoyed very much as we were looking for the private and quiet space.
The view is endless.
Very clean and presentable suite.
Definitely, we will visit again and recommend to anyone.
This property is everything it is advertised. The room is comfortable, the kitchen is well stocked with dishes and then there is the view. We were there 10 days of which we spent two entire days looking out at the Strait of Georgia and relaxed. Our hosts told us that was not unusual. Our hosts Debby and John were super friendly and gave us lots useful information such as when whales were out as well as local trails and parks that were good for limited mobility walkers. We would definately come back here and may do so next year.
This VRBO is a 12/10. Wonderfully organized, clean, with stunning ocean views. The kitchen amenities and quality of appliances were superb.
The hosts bent over backwards to make us comfortable. Canât thank John and Debby enough.
Lots of ocean sites close by. It simply is PERFECT
Awesome place, such a cool area. We visited Tofino, great ride. The views at the house are spectacular. We watched two Bald eagles eating dinner right in front of us!
Super comfortable stay, we will be back.
Right from the moment we arrived, it was clear it was the perfect place! The hosts were amazingly welcoming and very easy to reach when needed. The space was spotless and abundantly equipped (I mean everything you could ever want was included at this beautiful place! Everything - even binoculars so you could watch for whales and bald eagles out the huge panoramic windows!!) The view was breathtaking - even better than expected! This truly felt like "home away from home"! I HIGHLY recommend this wonderful place and if we are ever back in the area, there is no question where we will stay! Thank you Debby & John for sharing your gem of a home with us! :)
We had a great stay here. The place was so nice we had a hard time leaving even when we left for day trips to Nanaimo and Cathedral Grove. Saw whales and and assortment of wild life from the flat. Enjoyed the sunsets from the deck.
Clean an comfy with panaoramic views. Steep stairs down to suite with rail only on one side. Close to malls and restaurants and two nice natural parks.
This was our 3rd stay at this stunning property and is it our very favourite rental property, out of the dozen plus rentals we have stayed at.
Debby and John are 5 Star Hosts who provide a welcoming, spotless and beautiful accommodation with spectacular ocean views, comfy deck areas for relaxing and for seeing gorgeous sunrises and sunsets.
You will appreciate all the comforts of home, and more, during your stay at Big Vista!
We canât wait to go back again!!
