4.2 km from Royal Roads University, Illuminati Guest House is a recently renovated property set in Victoria and offers air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi and parking on-site. Each accommodation at the 5-star bed and breakfast has pool views, and guests can enjoy access to a sauna and a hot tub. Guests can make use of the outdoor fireplace or the children's playground, or enjoy views of the garden and inner courtyard. This was unique place in very good way. Staff was superb, amenities were great (even if I didn't have time to use most of them) and their dog was the cutest. Would definitely stay here for longer and will next time in Victoria.

Located in Nanaimo and only 6.5 km from Nanaimo Bastion, Modern 2BR Guest House in North Nanaimo provides accommodation with mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking. This recently renovated holiday home is located 6.6 km from Newcastle Island Marine Park and 8.2 km from Nanaimo Museum. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen and full-day security for guests. Very friendly hosts that cared a lot about us - we even enjoyed a huge bowl of veggies from the garden and felt so welcomed and comfortable. The accommodation offered everything we needed, we had a lot of space, the location was nice and quiet - we had a wonderful time there. We had a lot of fun because all the machines are singing a melody created by an Austrian composer ;)
