Family-friendly vacation rentals in Galiano Island

Linda and Ian were fantastic hosts. They made us feel welcome and comfortable, and checked in to ensure we had everything we needed. They had excellent local guide books and provided us some great recommendations on things to see and do. The location was beautiful, peaceful, and very quiet - just what my wife and I were looking for! Thank you, Linda and Ian!

What a lovely spot, cozy accommodations, and welcoming host! Thanks Jane!

We had an incredible time staying at Katy and Dave's beautiful log house on the Sunshine Coast! Our group of ladies came for a retreat, and the house was perfect—spacious, cozy, and filled with charm. The peaceful surroundings and nature views added to the relaxing atmosphere. Katy and Dave were very accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We couldn't have asked for a better place for our retreat and would highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to unwind and recharge!

This was our first time in Sooke and we shared Fredrick’s place with a friend we hadn’t seen in years. The warm home like environment, the separate bedroom ,bathroom spaces worked perfectly. The views were wonderful and we dined and explored the area easily. We wished we could have stayed longer.

Such a cozy and comfortable spot, located close enough to the mountains for all of our winter adventures! Hot tub, fully appointed kitchen, and spacious rooms, not to mention the beautiful surroundings (backyard creek and mountain views) all made for a wonderful stay.

Had an amazing relaxing week here! The ocean views were serene and peaceful ☺️ the amenities were just right and provided a lovely place to rest as well as take that office meeting if need be! Happy to recommend and visit again!

We had a lovely stay at Tracey’s Tranquil Spa Oasis. The kitchen is FULLY stocked with well made items which I really appreciated as someone with celiac who relies heavily on cooked meals while travelling. The place was spotless and you could really tell that a lot of thought had been put into little details re: the decor and stocking the AirBnB for travellers. Very friendly and responsive owners! Would definitely stay again 🥰 Thanks Tracey!

Staying at Loki and Kara’s was an absolute dream. Arguably one of the best Airbnb’s I’ve ever stayed at. If you’re lucky enough to be able to book this when it’s available- stop searching and book! The photos of this place don’t do it justice. It is gorgeous inside and out. So thoughtfully stocked. Not to mention the hosts are so kind and considerate- they even sent us pictures of the most beautiful sunset during one of the nights we stayed. Already looking forward to the next time I can stay here!

What a wonderful place to stay! We had a wonderful time sitting on the patio chairs and watching the sunset, sunrise and the many birds visiting the water. I can see myself booking this airbnb again in the future.

great place to stay, very clean, quiet area, beds were very comfortable a great home to stay at. Will be looking to book with them again.

We really enjoyed the space. Honestly the noise upstairs was not an issue. We didn’t really hear them. I thought they were most definitely respectful. They allowed us a late check out. Great communication and great location. Also, parking was not an issue with us either even when we arrive back late at night. Would return and recommend

WOW! We were in awe of our stay. Our hosts were responsive and so kind. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again any day!

The host was very kind and quick to respond to our requests. The interior, kitchen and bedrooms were clean and wonderful.

Rosie's Studio exceeded our already high expectations from reading the online reviews. You get unlimited access to feeding the friendly goats; Bella, a super gentle and playful golden retriever who comes and goes as she pleases (and will tease you into playing fetch!); and a stunningly peaceful farm stay with incredible views all the way to Mt Baker. The studio itself was great - clean and with lots of character, including the large circular windows that provide an ideal foreground for photos of the view. We really appreciated the breakfast staples and treats that Trish left, as well as the art supplies. When you're not out exploring Salt Spring, this is a great place to just relax, and my wife used the art supplies to paint the landscape, adding it to the wall of art from prior guests. Location wise, it's about 20 minutes to Ganges by car. We enjoyed it, as it felt far enough away from everything to feel secluded, but everything was still convenient. Perfect stay!

The place was amazing! It was clean, spacious, and perfect for a family stay. One of the highlights was the yard—it was super convenient for our dog, who had such a great time. The host was very accommodating and regularly checked in to make sure we had everything we needed, which made us feel well taken care of. Overall, I highly recommend this property! We’ll definitely be coming back.

What an amazing time at Erin’s! She was very responsive to meet our needs. She personally came to tell us where to explore in the area and what not to miss out on. We lived the clean,comfortable, and accommodating experience. We will definitely be back. Thank you Erin! If it weren’t for you we wouldn’t have seen what we got to see and experience.

Billie was super responsive and hospitable. She met us at check in and made sure we had everything we needed. She even customized a welcome for us. Very cute bungalow and very cozy!

My family of four stayed at Nyna's to attend a wedding over the Labour Day long weekend and enjoy some relaxation time at Rathtrevor Beach. The cabin had an absolutely perfect location for our purposes. It is an easy 20-minute walk to the beach, but we also drove to Rathtrevor whenever the kids insisted on bringing an excessive number of toys to play in the sand. The cabin itself was exactly as described and pictured. We were not entirely sure of our check-in time due to needing to pick up supplies on our way to the cabin, but Nyna still stuck around to welcome us in person upon our arrival and give us a personal tour of the place. She was an extremely responsive and helpful host. We would highly recommend her place to anyone wishing to stay in the area. Thank you, Nyna!

If you are fortunate enough to book Donald’s property, you will not be disappointed. My sister and I booked this unit and were so happy that we did. The property houses many more people, but it was also great for just the two of us. We both had our own bedroom and bathroom. So nice. The location is awesome. We walked on the beach and just relaxed. The pool and hot tub were great. This is a beautiful place and we will definitely be back hopefully. Thanks to Donald and his cleaning lady. Cheers Sandra

My family and I had a wonderful time staying at Eddie's place. The location of the home is perfect with gorgeous views of the water and mountains. Eddie was very friendly, proactive and responsive. The house is well stocked and we felt right at home. Highly recommend and would love to come again!

This is a fantastic place , so peaceful great property, free parking , I recommend

Place was gorgeous, Iris was a sweet and responsive host. We will be back again 100%

Great host; highly recommended! The house is well appointed and just as described.

This was a great stay and a wonderful experience. Jack was very helpful and was always available with any issues we had. This location is perfect as it was lest than 10 minutes to the ferry terminal and airport, which I both used! The home was very cozy with an antique vibe and lots of firewood for the fire place. Jack provided a lot of media entertainment, with endless movie and sporting TV options. The hot tub was always warm and we even got to go for a mini polar bear dive in the big pool. We had an amazing and relaxing time. Thank you very much Jack and we will consider coming back in the summer!
