Here are some comments given to us by folks who stayed on the SeaSuite.
Do not even think about staying anywhere else, Mark’s houseboat was PERFECT. So perfect that I almost don’t want to tell anyone about it so I can book at a moments notice. From the craftsmanship/design of the boat, the amenities (including slippers for walking to the roof deck), location in Sidney and the slip location within the Marina, there is literally nothing I would have changed. We spent a decent amount of time on the boats roof deck having morning coffee, and watching the sunset with a glass of wine in the evenings. We didn’t get a chance to take the kayaks out, but they are very accessible if you partake. The area around the Marina is charming and had everything we needed. The proximity to the Victoria airport was also a plus. I have stayed in my fair share of Airbnb’s over the years, and this one is definitely my favorite. I can’t wait to return!

This is the place you go to and then use as the standard against which you measure all AirBnB experiences. Mark has thought of everything, and each item fits together into the perfect retreat. On our last morning in the Sea Suite, I had my coffee in bed looking out at the water, and realized that, as much as I needed to go home (and I’m usually antsy to get home after a vacation), I didn’t want to leave. If you like being gently rocked to sleep by the water, and for your every need to have been anticipated, the Sea Suite is the place for you. We will be back. But not soon enough for me.

Clean, stylish houseboat in an upscale Marina, with a lovely view. It’s a small space, but not cramped, and fully stocked and easy to enjoy. Very convenient to the ferry terminals and airport. Fun adventure and great host!

The seasuite was amazing! The marina looked like Disney land. Was extra romantic at night. Mark was thorough and very communicative. The Surly mermaid restaurant he suggested made the bed cocktails. We truly enjoyed Sidney! Hope to come back again 🙂

Such a fun, unique Eco Friendly & luxurious place to stay. We cycled to Sidney for the weekend from Vancouver, it was a great location, had a low carbon foot print & eco friendly. 🙂 🙂 🙂

We stumbled upon this unique boat on this site and thought it could be fun. It exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed the day sitting on-top the roof top deck listening to music ,sun tanning and drinking coffee. We even got to do a little kayaking around the harbour.

A beautiful, well thought out space that lives large for its size. The attention to detail is superb and the boat offers everything you would want for a getaway! Location is excellent, walkable to everything in Sidney. Mark was a great host and communicator.

SeaSuite was everything I anticipated and much more! It shares the fine craftsmanship of a luxury yacht with the intimacy of a studio suite.

Be prepared for a cozy, intimate and relaxing stay at Sea Suites. This air bnb is like no other. It’s very stylish, well appointed, clean, comfortable and the view is outstanding. There’s nothing like being gently rocked to sleep by the waves and waking up in the morning to fresh ocean air! Mark is a terrific host who will take time to explain all the details about staying in this little houseboat, as well as providing suggestions and tips about the local area. The suite itself comes with a few awesome extras, like kayaks, zero-g chairs on the upper deck, propane grill, french press coffee and a Bluetooth speaker. Stay in and do some lounging or wildlife watching, or use it as your home base as you explore the beauty of Victoria, Sidney or the surrounding areas. No matter what you decide, you’re in for a treat!
