July 2023Serene week with perfect weather
This is a very beautifully designed contemporary home. It was complete with all amenities, including quality cookware. Be advised there is no microwave oven so don’t plan to heat leftovers. The owner, Jennette is very responsive and kind even though she was traveling herself. We visited Butchart Gardens while we were there, which is spectacular. There is a Provincial Park right on the road where the house is located with nice hikes. The flowers and herbs on the gorgeous terrace were a big plus.”

July 2023Beautiful House & Views
Beautiful house and great views outside with the floor to ceiling windows! Great spot to relax and have solitude after spending a week in downtown Victoria. Enjoyed the easily accessible hiking trails at the end of the street and the natural beach area Host provided great information and was very responsive! Thank you J! ps. It is quite a windy drive to get to the house so if you get motion sickness be aware”

June 2023Simply WOW!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Victoria Modern Masterpiece! Our group had never been to Victoria before, so there was plenty to keep us busy throughout our stay. The highlight, however, was getting to enjoy the beauty and elegance of this home. Jeannette and Francois did everything in their power to ensure we enjoyed our stay - from providing us with clear information about the ins and outs of their home, to giving us access to some of the fresh herbs on their deck and their Mexican Train Dominoes game. Their kitchen is a true "chef's kitchen" and we were thrilled to prepare many meals with ease that highlighted regional seafood. The view from the main level of the home is stunning, allowing us to enjoy nature even when we were inside the home. Jeannette and Francois could not have been better hosts!”
