  • I was looking on booking.com at your property & I see 4 results for 2 guests. Prices are either 968, 1016, 1209 or 871 for the same property & all the pictures are identical as are the dates we’ve selected. The only difference we can see are the free cancellation before dates. Please clarify

    Book.Com offers a discount for genius members. We participate in this discount. As well, there is a discount if you waive any ability to cancel. So all the various prices must have something to do with Booking.Com's various levels of discounts.

  • Is your home pet friendly?

    Yes, our home is pet friendly. Regards, Shelley Nielsen
    Answered on 25 October 2022
  • Why are there different prices for what appear to be identical rooms with identical amenities?

    As we only have one property we rent and it's a complete one-bedroom home, I'm not sure what you are referring too. Different prices for different months? Booking.Com offers Genius level prices that will affect pricing.

  • Hi, What is the nearest airport to you and how many hours drive is it? Thank you

    Good Day. There are two airports. 1. Victoria International Airport - about 2 to 2 1/2 hours drive - depending on traffic. 2. Nanaimo Regional Airport - about 1 1/2 to 2 hours drive. Seaplanes can be privately chartered from Victoria.

FRESH AND CLEAN | Exceptional Hygiene. Uncompromising cleaning and hygiene - additional cleaning, sanitizing and hygiene practices in all areas with particular emphasis on high touch points and hard surfaces. My luxury get-a-way is nestled in a coastal cottage community; situated on a high forested bluff overlooking San Juan Bay. We offer the most amazing views of the ancient of the West Coast Trail - a hike of a lifetime. Wildlife flourishes in abundance. Watch bald eagles and osprey; it is a birders’ delight. This is the magic of Bjørn Holm. Bjørn Holm showcases original artwork and traditional carvings, custom woodwork and hand-crafted furniture. Every aspect charms. The beauty is in the detail. Cook with a view. Eat with a view. Relax with a view. Visit us at Bjornholm (dot) ca for more details and photos; including driving suggestions and a printable map showing our exact location in the Wild Coast Cottage Development.
We are experienced traveler's and guests but are now hosting for the first time. I live in North Saanich (Vancouver Island) BC, Canada. We have lived and worked together for 40+ years selling custom, quality lumber and wood flooring at West Wind Hardwood Inc. We love to travel; whether a road trip, camping/canoeing trip; trips by air or on the water in our classic wooden boat. We have two adult girls. One lives locally and the other lives far too far away in Western Australia. Sadly my wife, Shelley of 45 years passed away July 2023 of a failed bone marrow transplant. I keep her mentioned as a legacy to what she has helped created, partners in life's adventures. Jan Nielsen
Port Renfrew was a resource-based community; the local wharf its hub and is in transition. It is a relaxed, friendly village always ready to help visitors enjoy their backyard of coastal, natural wonders. Port Renfrew is the gateway to ancient forests, epic hikes, and mighty surf – to the eagle and the salmon and Sitka spruce. From here, you can trek, paddle, comb the beaches or cast your line. Frommer’s describes Vancouver Island as “a mountainous bulwark of deep-green forests, rocky fjords, and wave-battered headlands. For an area so easily accessible by car, the range of wildlife here is surprising: Bald eagles float above the shorelines, seals and sea lions slumber on rocky islets, and porpoises and orca whales cavort in narrow passes between islands”. We are stone's throw from the Carmanah/Walbran UNESCO biosphere, the head of the West Coast Trail and the Botanical Beach.
