About this property
Hilltop Retreat | Private Hot Tub • Pet-Friendly • Peaceful 2BR Escape
Welcome to Hilltop Retreat — a private, peaceful West Coast stay designed for comfort, relaxation and room to settle in.
Set above a quiet residential cul-de-sac in Langford’s West Shore, this spacious 1,500 sq ft lower-level guest suite offers two bedrooms, flexible sleeping for up to five, a private hot tub, dedicated media room, well-equipped kitchenette and home gym — all with the warmth of a hosted stay while giving you plenty of privacy.
🛁 Your Private Hot Tub
Step onto your covered private patio and unwind in the hot tub, available 24 hours a day throughout your stay. During quiet hours from 10:00 PM–8:00 AM, we simply ask that voices and noise remain low out of consideration for our neighbours.
🎬 Relax & Recharge
Our NHL-inspired media room is made for movie nights, catching the game or putting your feet up after a day exploring Victoria. Enjoy comfortable seating, a large-screen TV and Bose surround sound. The primary bedroom also has its own TV and room-darkening blinds.
🍳 Plenty of Ways to Cook
While there isn’t a conventional stove, the kitchenette is unusually well equipped for a guest suite. You’ll have a Ninja convection oven, Ninja indoor grill, family-size electric griddle, Instant Pot, microwave, rice cooker, hot pot, Keurig, French press and other kitchen essentials.
Outside, the BakerStone outdoor cooking station adds a full-size gas grill, flat-top griddle and stone-lined pizza oven. BBQ tools and a pizza peel are provided.
🐾 Pets Welcome
We’re happy to welcome four-legged guests at Hilltop Retreat. Food and water bowls, a padded dog bed, towel and waste bags can be provided to make travelling with your pet a little easier.
All guest pets — including dogs and cats — should remain leashed whenever outdoors, both for their safety and because our hens may be out enjoying the property too.
👨👩👧 Room for Families & Small Groups
The suite has one Queen bedroom, one Double/Full bedroom and a pull-out sofa bed in the media room. For groups who prefer separate sleeping spaces, we’re happy to prepare the sofa bed with fresh bedding before arrival at no additional charge.
A travel crib/playpen, high chair, stroller and child-friendly dishes are also available on request.
🌿 A Little Hilltop Life
The larger backyard and gardens are shared with us, and you may occasionally see us tending the gardens, checking the bees or looking after our four hens. Guests who are interested are always welcome to say hello; those who prefer privacy can simply enjoy Hilltop at their own pace.

Bear Mountain, lakes, trails, parks, restaurants and everyday conveniences are nearby, while downtown Victoria is approximately 20–25 minutes away by car depending on traffic. Free dedicated parking is available for two standard-size vehicles.

This place was perfect for my family . Plenty of space, great entertainment options and very clean. Chris and Kira were wonderful hosts, and the chickens were so fun. The only wrinkle we had was the fridge was small, so if you plan to stay for more than a couple of days, you may want to bring a cooler for larger items. Will definitely book again.
Perfect place for the four adults & one Great Dane to stop over before a big day at Butchart Gardens. Clean, quiet, great neighborhood for walking our dog and location was not far from local eateries. Beautiful view from backyard area and the owner’s residence landscaping is wonderful with abundant flowering rhododendrons all about. Perfect weather was also a benefit! Thanks for all!
Everything was super wonderful...the suite had comfortable furnishings and was easy to find the location. We did not get to stay and use the hottub or spend the night due to health emergency. Looking forward to another stay in the future.
Having the hot tub was a real treat! Good value for money. Host was very responsive. For our family group it worked great! I personally enjoyed the Original Six NHL collection, especially the Bobby Orr “shrine” (my fav player of all time). Thanks, Chris and Kira!
We had a wonderful stay in BC! The place was very comfortable, and its location was perfect—close to everything we needed. It made our trip easy and enjoyable. Would definitely stay here again!

Great large functional space! Enjoyed hot tub time, which was in a nice private space. And it was super special to us to be able to bring our dogs so thank you so much! Chris was extra helpful in ensuring we could watch the Jays game- as a host he was above and beyond!

Nice suite that works great for 3 or 4 people. Easy access to everything in the Langford area and Bear mtn . Hot tub was nice to have Hosts were great .
This was the perfect place to kick back and relax after a long day of work. The hot tub was perfect for relieving sore muscles after standing all day and the beds were comfy. Our group of four had a great time and would stay here again
We could not have asked for a more wonderful VRBO to stay at. The suite was exactly as described and exceeded our expectations. The hosts were so very nice. The amenities made our stay even better.
Hosts were very helpful and had great communication! A bench press off the kitchen area, boxing gloves, hockey bobble heads what more do teenagers need? I like the bird in the tree that sung to us at dusk, was buzzed by a hummingbird, and awakened by chickens. The host has a whole bunch of different goodies for sale if you have the munchies. The lamps in our bedroom were beautiful but I did find my bed achy. My kids found the other beds to be fine for them. To be fair it took me 3 years to find a bed for home that didn’t make me achey. Would love to have more time on the island as there is so much to explore. My favorite spot is the Butterfly Zoo. Oh and the lovebirds enjoyed the hottub.
This place had a super cool vibe and everything you could possibly need to cook for yourself. There was snacks if you were hungry, work out equipment, a hot tub, very spacious living room and so much more! The hockey memorabilia was my favourite part!
We had a wonderful time at this peaceful and relaxing stay !! Hosts are very attentive and welcoming, we enjoyed all their homemade meats and cheeses !!
The hot tub was a great perk !!!!
Highly recommend!!!!!
What a fun place to stay. We enjoyed the ease of the location and the ability to relax in the hot tub and the living room. Great place to visit with family.
The suite is in a great location and you can’t find nicer hosts! The hot tub is terrific and quite private, the accommodations are comfortable and very clean. It was a nice place to hang our hats during our visit and we’d love to stay again if we’re back to this area! Thanks again to our hosts.
What a great place to stay !! Very cozy and welcoming. The chickens are a hit !! We had our dog and there was no issues. I would definitely recommend this property.
