Dear Sammarco Family,
We have fallen in love with Vancouver!
We loved the house and neighborhood, especially the great parks all around for the kids to enjoy. The house felt very homey and we loved the art work all around.
With having a large family (6 kids) it was so nice to have a home base with room to move about, a kitchen to cook in and great patios to enjoy. We hope to return again sometime!

We came from Indianapolis, Adam from tampa and Rachel from Tucson. We had a great time. Your neighbourhood is lovely and so close to SkyTrain and many restaurants. That's a workout! Thank again for opening your lovely home. It did some time for those of us over 6'1' to get used t some of the low ceilings, but we stopped banging our heads after a day or two. Ciao,

Great for a larger group
We were a family group of seven (parents, adult children and a grand-child) who stayed for a week and this house suited our needs exactly. This is an older house that has been beautifully renovated and well maintained. It is wonderfully decorated with art, photos and sculpture everywhere. The house is roomy with common areas for the group and private rooms for quiet time. The location is ideal for a stay in Vancouver - central, close to major thoroughfares and transit but in a quiet residential neighbourhood. I would highly recommend this property for a larger group.

Amazing place to book. The home was beautifully decorated. So comfortable! Great location. Check in process was easy and prompt. The home is centrally located. Parking was amazing, right in front of the house. The street was so quiet. The home had all of the amenities you need for a very comfortable visit. I highly recommend this home. We loved it. We had our entire family with us. Everyone loved it. Beds were so comfortable. Washer and dryer in the house to use. The front porch was perfect for drinking your morning coffee, reading, visiting with family. We travel a lot, always with VRBO. This is one of the best we have rented. I highly recommend this property for anyone visiting Vancouver. Owners, thank you for allowing us to have an amazing visit.

Lovingly decorated
With 7 people, it's no small feat to find a place that will house all of us comfortably. This was the perfect home base, and we looked forward to returning every night we were in Vancouver. There was something new and interesting in the house everywhere we turned, and we had enough space to maneuver around each other. Communication did get a bit jumbled at times because there were so many of us and there was a separate property manager along with the owners, to add even more lines of contact. But the property manager was very accommodating and the small issues (miscommunication about the bedding, dishwasher instructions being different between what was said verbally and what was written down, etc) were figured out very quickly. We enjoyed our time here a lot. A lovingly decorated home.

Raccoon Mansion
The property was overgrown but also they were infested with raccoons and we could smell, hear and see them. Two of our members could smell raccoon urine the moment we went inside and that is not a very nice smell! The "garage" in the back garden was fixed up and rented out as was the basement and the third floor as well. So there were 4 rental properties in one which I was not expecting at all. The house was in need of some repair especially the rear deck which had boards lifting up. One evening, the raccoons were making such a racket we went inside just in case they would come out. The raccoons entered the house through the ceiling of the back deck. Apparently the owners were aware of the raccoon problem but had not done anything about them. We would like out money back for this shabby property.

Vancouver Adventure
House is quite old with lots of stairs to get up to the bedrooms and lots of artwork. Neighborhood is nice, and has easy driving access to main tourist attractions. My friends and I rent a house each summer and this is the first one where the TV actually worked without problem! We were surprised at how expensive some sites were, like Grouse Mountain and Capilano Bridge. Granville Island has lots of shops but it’s best to take a cab there as parking is almost nonexistent.

Centrally located for large family
We took a cruise from Vancouver to Alaska and decided to stay here for a few days on the front end of our trip. The manager met us at the house and was very welcoming. He even set up an extra bed for us. We had no issues while there. The house was in a safe neighborhood. It was well stocked with toilet paper and had laundry. We chose this house because it was centrally located to the bus stops connected to Skytrain. Miraculously, the busses and skytrain were large enough to accommodate our family and luggage! It was 2 adults and our 7 children ages 5-17. We did not rent a car and although there was a bit of walking, we figured out Vancouver’s public transit. We did end up taking an Uber back from Stanley park after a long day. We also took a taxi to the cruise terminal for ease of hauling luggage. The weather was very cooperative so we spent most of our time on the back deck. If it weren’t, we might have had trouble sitting together inside for meals. We had no problems cooking, but spices could use refills. It would be helpful to have a list of suggested restaurants nearby. We were surprised that there was a lower level of the house and upstairs level of the house (both with their own entrances) that were also rented out. We had no contact with the people, but thought it should be worth noting. I passed up other homes because of this-although it really was not a problem in this case. There was a park about a block away that the kids were able to play. Thank you Maria!

Home away from Home
I could tell from the photos this home was perfect for my family!! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the opportunity to cook and enjoy family meals away from home. The home itself is very cozy with its eclectic and family atmosphere. Whether it was having coffee in the sun on the back deck or enjoying a late beverage on the front porch, this home was the perfection place for us - as we traveled to Vancouver for our daughter's wedding! We arrived late afternoon and check-in was effortless. Whatever we needed, this home provided us. Very spacious for our family; ideal temperature for the summer weather; convenient laundry facilities; comfortable beds; and the list could go on!! The location was central and only a 15 minute uber ride to downtown. Grocery and other amenities within 5 minute uber drive. This is our first vrbo home and the experience exceeded our expectations! When we return to Vancouver, it would be an honour to stay at this home again! Thank you to the Sammarco family for their home away from home!

A great part of our vacation
I've not experienced any any other vacation short-term rental quite like this. A beautiful home with great patio spaces, we felt incredibly comfortable for the week we were there. I loved the way the house is deliberately decorated to reflect the owners; it felt like we were staying in their home and not just the latest in a line of renters. The building is old and creaky, but that didn't bother our group much. The manager was a pleasure to work with. He was very available to us and answered all our questions. Best manager experience I've ever had! We loved being so close to transit and the bike share. I'm glad we ordered grocery delivery on our first night because it is a bit of a walk to the Safeway. This is on a beautiful street, and this house is one of the nicer ones on it. The owners clearly take care of the yard and it made it even nicer to enjoy a glass of wine on the patio. We were there during an unseasonable heatwave. Although the house doesn't have AC, the fans in all the bedrooms did a great job of making the rooms comfortable. Although there are renters in the attic and basement suites, we didn't hear them at all. Excellent soundproofing and courteous neighbours. All in all, we'd be happy to recommend this suite to others.

Quaint Victorian .. Great location
Well provisioned ... set up well ... clean ... good room sizes ... neighborhood cat a bit of a pain ... location perfect for an easy drive to downtown, Granville or Burnaby. Nice chatting with owners.
