Canada 1 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Sooke reprieve This suite was perfect for me while working in Sooke. The location was very convenient. It had all the amenities I needed. Nice deck space to enjoy the ocean view. A box of tissues was the only thing I could have used. Jennifer was very helpful and easy to communicate with. ##### Derek O.

There is also a resident sea lion who announced himself on a regular basis. One day there were a orcas cruising around. Probably looking for a tasty sea lion snack! I would go back. Nothing more needs to be said. ##### Dan C.

Perfect for the two of us, had everything we needed. If anything was missing (oven mitts) a quick text to the owner fixed it. Our own deck which we would have used more in warmer temperatures. A lovely new staircase down to the shoreline. Sunrises out the kitchen window/deck and sunset colours in the evenings. Easy walking and driving distance to restaurants and other amenities (drugstores, grocery stores, etc.). Tons of local hiking trails a short drive/walk away as well. Some traffic noise during the day but never an issue while we were trying to sleep. Highly recommend and we will be back! ##### Mandy W.
