Family-friendly holiday rentals in Gibsons

We really enjoyed our short stay at Chris and Carolyn’s place. The location is just minutes to the start of Sechelt and the waterfront access and view was spectacular.

We had a lovely time. Doreen and Doug were extremely responsive and helpful even when the power unexpectedly went out during a storm. We would definitely come back the next time we are in Sechelt.

Absolutely stunning location - saw loads of wildlife from the terrace, and an amazing view over the water. Property was also very well supplied with a super modern kitchen and ample bed and bath space. Will be back!

We loved staying at Michelle’s place. It was very clean and relaxing and the place had all amenities as described. The hot tub was a special bonus after hiking and water sports. Michelle is very responsive and friendly. We would definitely book again!

Katy and Dave were incredible hosts - they made sure the hot tub was warm for us each day and were responsive to whatever we needed. The place itself is GORGEOUS - we didn’t leave once and were entertained the entire time, even in the rain. It was the perfect spot for a girls weekend. I would absolutely stay here again and hope to be back at some point! Can’t recommend enough.

This was a magical experience. Hot tub by the water surrounded by gorgeous flowers. Cozy and rejuvenating!

Brittany's house is the most loveliest, peaceful, stunning airbnb! Our little 5 day trip had us all zen like relaxed, the deck is where we all hung out and made memories. The garden is so beautiful. The kitchen is the most stocked welcoming easy to use kitchen. This place needs 10- stars, the bedrooms, bathrooms, garden, deck, views easy check in made this trip the best! We can't wait to come back. Thank you Brittany and Tim for sharing your lovely home.

Really nice area, my wife and I used it as a honeymoon spot. Even with other houses fairly close around, it still feels like you quite alone! The place is clearly designed to be a couples getaway spot, with the two shower heads, two person soaker tub and so on. There are some pretty decent restaurants about a 15 minute dive too. Bree was on top of things too, sent a message less than an hour after we arrived welcoming us and letting us know if we needed anything to message her. My wife and I really enjoyed our stay!

This was hands down the best Airbnb I’ve stayed in! The space was spotless, beautifully decorated, and full of thoughtful touches. The host was amazing—friendly, responsive, and made everything so easy. Great location, super comfy beds, and all the amenities you could want. I didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to come back!

Raquel’s place is top notch - everything is exactly as described or better. Have rarely stayed at a better stocked Airbnb in terms of kitchen appliances, essentials, etc. The location is perfect for exploring Gibsons (5 min drive from everything). The farm itself is an amazing, peaceful slice of paradise, and last but not least, Raquel is an awesome host, sharing her deep local and farm knowledge and making sure you have a great stay on the Coast!

I stayed at Lauri's place for a week while working remotely, and it was exactly what I needed. The deck offers a great view - perfect for morning coffee or unwinding in the evening. The area is quiet and peaceful, I could really focus during the day and relax afterwards. Even though it wasn't a vacation, I left feeling recharged. The cabin, though small, was well-equipped and comfortable, and the natural beauty around made it a memorable experience.

This was a return visit for us. We love everything about this cabin and host! It's perfect for two and our pup is welcome too. Super clean, quiet but close to amazing walking trails, beaches and a short drive to excellent eateries. Keitha made us feel so welcome and helped us enjoy our stay even more with suggestions on fun local activities. We can't wait to visit again!

We loved the cosy little cabin! It was perfect! Thank you for having some teabags in your kitchen too - I had the perfect cup of tea before bed and I was so grateful for that little extra!! Your cabin is a little gem. Thank you, Karen!

We had a great stay! The neighbourhood was very peaceful. We really enjoyed grilling on the Weber BBQ and appreciated the multiple fans available in the cottage. The pillows were some of the best I've slept on! My toddler said it was her favourite place that we've stayed. Thanks!

We had a lovely stay, it was very clean, comfortable, and a very nice location. There is plenty of spices, oil, and other cooking needs. We really appreciated there being coffee and a baby high chair and playpen/ travel crib! June was always very quick to respond and answer any questions. The area was so beautiful, you could see the ocean from the street and there is a lovely dog friendly beach down the road. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be rebooking if we visit nanimo again!

We had a wonderful stay at Eva’s place. Such a peaceful and thoughtfully designed space. The neighborhood is very walkable and quiet. We hope to come back soon!

Our party included 4 adults and two children. We stayed in the house for four nights. This is something which we do every summer, staying in different houses near Rathtrevor Provincial Park. We were happy with our rental this year (2024). We liked the fact that this complex includes a swimming pool. We also spent a lot of time at the beach. (We used the beach folding chairs which are available in the unit.) We also walked in the adjacent Rathtrevor Provincial Park. We also drove to some stores in town. The kitchen is well equipped. We used the BBQ for three of the dinners. It was useful that one of the bedrooms includes a desk. Sandy communicated with us (via the AirBnB app) several times. We had a great vacation. I should also mention that after we checked out we discovered that my granddaughter left a certain item behind. Sandy assured me that it will be mailed to us. Thank you!

Very great place to stay for vacation. A LOT of attractions around Parksville. The host is very responsive and friendly and gave lots of suggestions. Great place!

My family and I absolutely loved our stay at Starfish Cottage. The house itself was so clean and inviting, as soon as we entered we felt comfortable and at home. The location is great, we took full advantage of the swimming pool and mini golf. We went to the Black Goose Inn (charming English-like pub) twice while we were there as it was just down the road. Super easy drive into Parksville which had everything we could possibly need. My daughter had her 4th birthday here, and really enjoyed herself. We all talked about how much we want to come back again, and we certainly intend to!

This was a fabulous rental, it was perfect in every way. Every step of this booking was just a great experience, the host was so friendly and fun to chat with and thought of everything a traveller might need. All of the instructions were clear and well thought out, everything was as expected if not better, the place was spotlessly clean and everything was provided for. Couldn’t recommend this place enough, I hope we will get a chance to enjoy your hospitality again, it made for such an enjoyable trip! Thank you so much!

Donald was a very good host to work with. We were happy with the condo, it was spacious and had what we needed to enjoy a great time. So nice to have the pack and play for our baby. The upper and lower floors were so nice to give privacy when traveling with multi family. The grounds were beautiful and the heated pool and hot tub were really nice. A short walk to access Rathtrevor Beach, which is awesome We would book again next time we come!

We had a great stay! Grandkids swam in the pool most every evening, and it was great to have the beach so close! Accommodations were very clean, comfortable beds, and the kitchen was well stocked with utensils needed for preparing meals and grilling. The grands loved discovering the box of toys too!

The perfect place to stay for our visit to Parksville. Our host was super communicative and helpful. Highly recommend!

The cottage was great for our family of 5! Equipped with beach towels, toys, and even a mini cooler - this makes beach going easy. Everyone enjoyed the pool and the beds and sofa beds were all comfy! Thanks so much for a great stay!
