Fitness-friendly holiday rentals in Strathcona, Vancouver

My girlfriend and I stayed here for a girls weekend. The layout of the unit, the location, the decor and bathrooms were all great. Ubers were easy to get to and from the unit, and it made for a great homebase for us. My only gripe, if I had to find one was the fact that we needed to throw away our own trash at the end of our stay. The trash receptacles are all the way on the first floor behind several doors and a few long corridors, and because our flight was at 8am, we had to account for an extra 20 minutes to bring the trash down, bring our keys back up to the unit, and then head out. Otherwise, the views, location and comfort of the unit made for an excellent first visit in Vancouver.

Great place to stay! Clean, accessible, and Lucy was super helpful when our arrival plans got delayed.

Killer view, enough space for 2, great location. Anushka was very responsive. Don't want want to dine out every meal, there is a great market end of the same block. Looking to dine out casually, lots of options from 24 hr subway, several pizza joints, sushi, etc. We did not use the pool area as I prefer to swim solo, but it was large and clean. Not too many apple there end of the night. Apartment as described. Host was exceptional

We had a wonderful 2 nights. Location is perfect and the condo was exactly as described. Nadia is a great communicator and made the stay comfortable and enjoyable. Would happily recommend Nadias place to friends and family. Thank-you for a great stay. Craig and Jane

Sam’s place worked out well for our family. It was easy to get to, and had a few decent eateries and a grocery store within walking distance. The apartment itself had amazing views of the stadium and downtown. It was very quiet in the home, despite being in busy downtown. The space met our needs and had great natural light. It is a very urban, downtown location with all the pros and cons that come with that, but was worth the convenience for us.

The hosts were super accommodating to a few requests we had before arrival and even getting us in the home earlier than expected. They were super communicative the whole time and assisted with any questions. Loved all the amenities and even left us a laundry card to do some laundry. Only thing off putting about the place was the surrounding area and maybe we should have done more research, but the homeless population in downtown Vancouver is scary. We watched a lot of homeless people and drug involvement around the streets of the home we stayed in and nearby restaurants.

Excellent place to stay in Vancouver! Fernando gave really clear instructions and photo references for accessing the space and parking. We travelled with a toddler and two infants, and we couldn’t be happier with the space available to us, with plenty of amenities available. Fernando also left a high chair for us, which was a nice surprise. For any questions I had, Fernando was responsive and gave answers with great detail. The condo sits right next to a Sky Train station for convenience. We primarily drove with a rental car, most places of interest were within a 20-30min drive including traffic. YVR was about a 45min drive with rush hour traffic. There are lots of restaurant options available, just on the street around the condo, along with Gastown and Yaletown about a 15min walk away. Would highly recommend this stay for small families, couples or singles, especially if you like to be near what’s happening around the city.

This place was great for our family. Alexander is a great host. Very communicative and helpful. Went above and beyond for us on one need. Highly recommend this downtown loft!

Great Airbnb. Really lovely hosts that were always happy to help. Clean and tidy.

Davis place is clean and tidy. It is walkable to Chinatown attractions. It is also conveniently located beside a Skytrain station and a big Asian supermarket.

This was an excellent place to stay, centrally located next to the rail to get around Vancouver. Also great restaurants within walking distance. The spot itself was well maintained and provided all the amenities like gym, pool, and sauna. Only thing was parking was tough to find upon arrival, took about an hour to find. Otherwise, it was an ideal spot to work & relax in with great views of downtown.

It was very cozy and home like apartment. And appreciate Rob for all the clear instructions on how to check in and check out. Loved it.

the condo is very clean, well kept, great details and in a very good location. what I did not like was the noise level. although its the 28th floor but the street and metro noise is surprisingly high for such a high floor. I would still go back again to this place as the overall stay was good. also the 3rd br is good for 1 person that is very easy going as it has no windows, no ventilation and no space to walk around. again everything was exactly like the photos so no surprises other than the noise level.

Lovely accommodation with amenities and facilities! Only shame was it was quite noisy at night.

Really great apartment. I loved the views from the living room and balcony. Location was perfect too, everything on the door step and 15 min walk to the creek.

Great location, walking distance to local hot spots and public transport. The unit is fully equipped- prof air bnb setup. Perfect for 4 people.

We really enjoyed our stay at Kendra and Trevor’s place. There were six adults in our group. Plenty of space for everyone. The rooftop patio was a terrific spot to unwind and spend time together. A special thank you to Kendra for providing a few welcoming snacks as well as milk and creamer! That was greatly appreciated in the morning as we arrived late in the evening.

Demitri and Jessica’s place was by far the best Airbnb I’ve stayed at! It was in a friendly and quiet neighborhood. 3 min walk to supermarket, 2 min walk to the bus stop, and 10 min drive to downtown Vancouver. Inside their home, you’ve got everything you could think of. The kitchen was fully equipped (I’m talking about different types of coffee maker etc). The interior was very spacious and comfortable for 4 adults. I especially love the thoughtful instructions placed around the house - which saved me time from searching for how things work. Demitri and Jessica put in so much effort running this place. I got multiple messages from them during my stay to make sure our stay was ok. I would 100% recommend staying at their place!

I had an absolutely wonderful stay! The accommodations were clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable experience."

'Hollywood North' is a bit of a misnomer - the home is much more classic, warm and comfortable, with owners who provide timely and helpful communication and assistance. 'West Coast Charm and Grace' might be more descriptive. The cost of the accommodation, though not unsubstantial, was well worth it. We were a group of 9 adults from 2 branches of one family who meet every Thanksgiving to reconnect. The bedrooms, the bathrooms, the 2 living areas, the dining room, the outdoor terrace, the swimming pool and hot tub, the gardens, and the very impressive kitchen all served to make the holiday one we will cherish. Everything you need to make the house your home was supplied - inspired us to stay in and cook as a family a vegetarian Thanksgiving dinner! In short, a beautiful home and great hosts in a lovely setting. Could not ask for more.

Beautiful Comfortable home that was the ideal place to hunker down in some very I Rainy cold weather. The house had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare good meals.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay in David and Taylor’s home. The house is very clean and immaculate. The pictures do not do it justice. We were there to celebrate our son’s wedding. The lovely and spacious home allowed our group of 6 to cook meals together and to gather indoors or outdoors in the amazing heated patio area. We also enjoyed the clean hot tub, the lovely Koi Pond and the fire pit. Because there are so many different indoor and outdoor spaces, people could quietly slip away to another area of the home if they wished a few minutes of solitude. The house’s location is perfect and provided easy access to excellent trails for daily hiking and trail running. The well-equipped gym was a bonus. David is an outstanding host. He’s very responsive and worked hard to make sure everything was perfect. He is a wonderful human. We are all so grateful that we had such an amazing family experience. We highly recommend David and Taylor’s North Vancouver home.

We had a family of 5 to stay for 10 days and Nikos’ place was perfect for us! Nikos was always highly responsive and respectful and kind, no matter what we requested. The house is beautiful, well appointed, and very comfortable and clean. No complaints at all. It was nice to be able to walk to the local grocery store and cafe and bakery, and the location near campus was ideal for spending time with our daughter. We very much hope to stay here again when we return next year. Very highly recommended. 😊

Super responsive communication from the host. Home was very much as described in the photos - and we were pleased and comfortable here. The interior garden area is really peaceful. Will look forward to staying again.
