Rathtrevor / Tanglewood Gem

Another (3rd stay) lovely relaxing getaway at this Tanglewood "Gem".We love the close proximity to Rathtrevor beach. Which is a short walk away. The home is very well cared for and updated decor. The furniture is very comfortable and high quality bedding/towels. There is no lack of kitchen supplies. Dishes, utensils, glasses, cookware etc.Lovely outdoor sitting area, which is great for relaxing and watching all the wildlife such as deer , rabbits and many song birds.The pictures are exactly as described. No unpleasant surprises.Carol and Terry are quick to respond to any questions or concerns.We will definitely stay here again when we are back on the island :)

Perfect Family Vacation

We stayed at Carol's vacation rental in June 2025. The location was amazing with great access to the beach and driving distance to loads of child friendly activities. Carol was a great host and made sure we had everything we needed for our two children. The place was fantastic and has everything you'd want to cook! Thanks again Carol!

Perfect Birthday Getaway

We had a wonderful time staying at Carol and Terry’s place. The rooms were very comfortable and the unit fit our party of six (three generations) perfectly. We loved the green space outside for the kids to play and the adults to lounge. The kitchen and BBQ were gourmet. The beach access was easy and so close. Thanks for a great holiday!

Was as advertised, beautifully appointed luxury condo!

Condo was immaculate and wonderfully located at one of our favourite spots on Vancouver Island. Wonderful walks, great weather, outstanding pubs, restaurants and bistros. Great shopping close by and a kitchen that was fully equipped and great appliances for home cooking and or barbecuing on scenic patio! We all felt very lucky to have found such a treasure and look forward to returning.

Beach Fun

Close walking access to the beach. Lots of local hiking in the area. Property clean and well equipped! Disappointed that there is not actual pool or hot tub access as indicated in the listing. There is an option at a neighboring resort complex but you must pay a drop in fee. I would suggest the listing be updated to reflect this in order to limit disappointment for families.

The Perfect Wedding Retreat

We stayed in this modern clean retreat home that was very spacious for six adults and one child. Very well equipped with plenty of everything. Carol was extremely helpful and answered quickly if we didn’t understand something. The beach was cool at low tide and walked out for a long ways. Lots of stuff to see and visit close by. Nice and quiet too! We would definitely come again. Thanks Carol and Terry

What a beautiful place to stay! The property is modern, clean, well-stocked and feels luxurious. The location is fabulous - we appreciated the proximity of the forest that borders the property. Although the beach was close, to our surprise the grassy area right out back was a huge hit with our kids - a real bonus for families. We would certainly recommend this place to others and would definitely return.
