Excellent accomodation
Have never spent any time in Sidney and this was an excellent place and location to explore the area and surrounding islands. Beautiful view from the front patio. Our evening walks in the area were wonderful under starry skies with the sound of the ocean. Hosts were very nice and extremely accommodating.

Very pleased with our stay!
This unit is exactly as advertised. It is in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood and has a lovely water view. It has all the amenities one could wish for in a rental unit. It’s spacious and beautifully decorated. The host is communicative and entry/exit were very easy. The building has a wonderful gym with equipment and weights overlooking the lovely garden. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else when in Sidney. 15 minute flat walk to town.

We had had an amazing time staying at Joyce’s place! It was fabulous and we loved sitting out on the patio. There was a great (clean) grill available to use as well. Vancouver Island and Sidney is so lovely. We will be back next year!!

Perfect stay
I came here with my 80 year old mother to spend the week close to where my sister lives, in Sidney. The unit is clean, comfortable and charming. The outdoor seating was a bonus, as we were there for an abnormally hot week and were able to sit outside looking at the ocean feeling the cool breeze. As an Ontarian, I was worried about the lack of air conditioning but even with the heat wave, evenings were cool and the breeze from the ocean cooled us down. Now I understand why not many people have a/c there! There were fans on hand as well that we could use. The host was easy to talk to, friendly and informative. We would love to be back at beautiful Miraloma again someday! :) C & B

Fabulous place, beautifully decorated and with a gorgeous view!
Wow! My sister & her husband, and my husband and I had such a wonderful time at this unit. The beds are comfortable, each with its own private bathroom/shower, and the kitchen is stocked with everything you could possibly need! The unit itself is tastefully decorated, with 3 tv’s (one in the living room, and one in each bedroom. The patio sitting area is so cozy with a great view of the water. The unit and the entire building was pristine clean with breathtaking plants & flowers in the surrounding gardens. Communication was extremely clear, prompt, and so friendly. We felt so welcomed to this peaceful, beautiful community of Sidney By the Sea.

This two bedroom, two bathroom, apartment is exceedingly comfortable. The location is excellent. It is very comfortable. The photos online do not do it justice. It is in a building with a very open and warm common space. My son and I were extremely comfortable here. I *strongly* recommend you give this place serious consideration. A gem if I've ever seen one.

Overall a great spot
A great spot & did connect with owner but had difficulty when arriving as no manager or call to assist! Sorry there was no actual stove as nice for long term stays! Also although we don’t have a pet , the inability to have a small dog visit( even at a cost) limited our son’s opportunity to visit us! Still a wonderful spot that we would recommend!

Peaceful Location
We stayed in this apartment for six weeks in January and February to escape the harshness of a Canadian winter. The apartment is on the ground floor of a four story building which was formerly a hotel, I believe. As a result, there is a central atrium with a large lounge on the ground floor with ample seating, a fireplace, a dining table, a large aquarium and the former check-in desk. There is also a community kitchen. Our apartment was accessed through a door off this central atrium. The apartment itself is very comfortably sized for a long-stay for three adults, having two bedrooms with comfy beds and two bathrooms. The seating area, dining area and kitchen are open-concept with French doors opening onto a ground-floor balcony with a small view of the water through a break in the trees. The kitchen is well-stocked but be aware that there is no dishwasher or oven in the apartment although you can (and I did) use the oven in the community kitchen. The building itself is located in a mixed residential (very nice) and commercial area (marina and marina services). I am a "walker" so found it an easy 25 minute walk into Sidney, which I did almost every day (for exercise and coffee). It is a 10 minute drive to the airport or the Schwarz Bay ferry and a 30 minute drive to downtown Victoria. We enjoyed our stay in this apartment and would happily stay here again. Note that the main heat for the apartment is a two-sided fireplace (living room and bedroom).

A fantastic week spent Vancouver Island, which was our first visit. I would thoroughly recommended the location as easy to access from the ferry and Sidney is very relaxing. Thanks to our host who was thorough with updates before our arrival.
