The only accommodation in Victoria to receive the Lonely Planet "Our Pick" designation!
“This new venture from the guys who brought you Ocean Island Backpackers is a seriously good deal for groups of up to four ($15 extra per person after double occupancy). In this renovated heritage home in a quiet residential enclave a short walk from Inner Harbour, each suite has an individual international theme — request the Burma suite and you'll also get a claw-foot bathtub — along with hardwood floors, full kitchens and free wireless access. There's a shared laundry ($1.50 per load) in the basement plus a large deck and quiet garden for summertime chilling. ”

Guest Reviews of Ocean Island Suites Vacation Lodgings
“Thank you for your hospitality. The suite was just lovely--so clean and private and beautifully appointed. What a comfortable bed and delightful space to be... We'll come back. ”
- C & M from Salt Spring Island, BC.
" I needed a safe nest as a
base, to find a permanent place to live [....]
The 'efficiency suite' I was in was perfect, beautifully decorated,
contemporary colours, an unbelievably comfortable Murphy bed, all
complementing, and enhancing, the Victorian era house - in short, my room
was everything one would need for a week, a month, or longer! A fully
equipped kitchen and bathroom/shower en suite - nothing was missing.
It overlooks two of the oldest houses in Victoria, and a massive
monkey-puzzle tree . . as well as being a quiet establishment, the staff
are friendly and helpful beyond. Being without a computer would have been
impossible, but, the proprietors, being themselves from the 'rest of the
world', the rooms are all cable and wireless!!
[...] this is the place to stay when visiting Victoria! My
visiting daughter/husband and granddaughter stayed for several days, and
they too loved the place"
- Erin from BC
“I just wanted to write and say how much we enjoyed our stay at the Suites on September 23rd. The space is gorgeous, so clean, and has everything we needed. I loved that there was a hair dryer! The only down side was that we were only staying one night. We have already been recommending you to any of our friends going over to Victoria and will definitely be back ourselves.”
- Melissa from Nova Scotia.
“We really appreciated the cab ride provided from the Inn to the Suites. The Front Desk staff were extremely helpful. We hope to be back next year for Honeymoon Part 3.”
- St. Albert, AB.
“What we liked most about our stay is the fact that it feels like Home (but not home). And the pricing is just right.”
- Edmonton, AB.
“Pleasant, comfortable, relaxing, roomy! Nice neighbourhood, convenient location.”
- Calgary, AB.
