This lovely and private garden suite is located in a beautiful fully-renovated heritage home in a friendly and vibrant neighborhood. It is attractively furnished and is comfortable and spacious. The suite has a private entrance, a large kitchen, and a beautiful garden patio.

This suite is perfect for parents, and grandparents, visiting kids in the neighborhood, travelers of any description, and temporary work placements of all kinds. Are you tired of hotels with no kitchen facilities, looking for some authentic neighborhood feel, or visiting with relatives and friends but want your own space too? If this describes you, come and stay in your own home away from home while you are in Vancouver! We've recently upgraded the shower to a walk-in shower. Whether you are vacationing with family, travelling on business, here with the film or entertainment industry, or a government employee temporarily assigned in Vancouver we offer a comfortable and affordable furnished suite for your longer stay (30 days plus).

Convenient central location with easy access to all the amenities, you are a two minute walk along our quiet tree-lined street to the best part of fabulous Commercial Drive, with shops, groceries, restaurants, live music/entertainment, recreational facilities and the greatest selection of coffee shops anywhere! And by the way, Vancouver is a top micro-brewery destination, and many fine micro breweries are in our area.

By car you are just a 8 minute drive to the city center and a 30 minute drive to any location in the city, from the beaches of Kitsilano, to the mountains of the North Shore, to the BC ferry portal to the Gulf Islands and Victoria. We are very close to public transit: buses are a block away, Skytrain (rapid transit) is a 12 minute walk. Many guests opt to go car free as travelling around the city is super easy, but if you have a car, we have a large off street parking space just for you.

Can't wait to come back!
Susan and Leslie are the most wonderful hosts and keep the property so cozy, comfortable, and stocked with anything you could possibly need. They are so friendly and personable - even when there was a bit of a medical situation on their end, they were there for anything I needed. The location is amazing, easy to get anywhere in Vancouver via the skytrain or Evo, and Commercial Drive has everything - groceries, cafes, restaurants, shopping. I loved staying here and will definitely check this listing first upon my next work trip to Vancouver. Thank you for everything!

Great location, great accommodation, great hosts
I had a marvelous time in Vancouver. The property is located a block off Commercial Drive which is a vibrant multicultural street with multiple ethnic grocers and restaurants and is perfect for people watching. I walked it every day! While the Drive is a happening street, the surrounding area is a quiet residential neighborhood with many slow streets and dedicated bike paths. There is a bus stop 3 minutes away and a Skytrain station less than 10 minutes away, so getting anywhere in the city is a breeze. The suite is fully equipped with just about anything one would need and is quiet and comfortable and with a marvelous relaxing outdoor area. Leslie and Susan were welcoming and so helpful. I hated to leave and will be back!

Another wonderful stay
This is my third time staying here and, as usual, it was great. Bed is comfortable, kitchen is fully equipped, great laundry access and an amazing back patio. Sue and Lesley are great hosts — always available and helpful and never intrusive. Looking forward to my next stay

Host profile image
We love living in this beautiful 1910 heritage home in a prime heritage area of Vancouver, and sharing the Commercial Drive area with visitors from all over the world. Vancouver is indeed a visitors paradise and we enjoy the great variety of people who come and explore its many hidden gems.

Why they chose this property

Commercial Drive is one of the trendiest areas in Vancouver and a fabulous place to visit. The house is on a quiet street 1 1/2 blocks from the best cafes, restaurants, live music clubs and bars, shops, produce and health food stores. There are fitness facilities, banks, groceries, transit, and a liquor store all within minutes from home.

What makes this property unique

Our house is over 100 years old. She celebrated her 100th birthday in 2010. Over the last several years she has had major renovations to every sector of the home, including the suite. The suite is a new installation including both kitchen and bathroom and has not been rented prior to this listing on VRBO. The entire house, including the suite, has retained its heritage charm and combines the best of modern and heritage living.
