    Great location

    September 25, 2011

    Really enjoyed Oak Bay. Derrick was very hospitable and very good cook. Only drawbacks: bed a little hard and bathroom a little small, but after all the place was built in 1912 and the common areas (sunroom and living room) are very comfortable and it was nice and quiet.

    I was pleasantly surprised by this quaint little B & B. Breakfast was delicious and it felt wonderful to be served with fancy china. The beds were extremely comfortable and the hosts have added wonderful personal touches throughout the house to make it inviting and charming.

    The best B&B I've ever stayed in!

    August 18, 2011

    We loved the Victorian ambiance and the comfortable room. The location was perfect with easy access both to Oak Bay Village and Victoria and the breakfasts were remarkable. I would highly recommend the Oak Bay Guest House to anyone who desires a comfortable, quiet, friendly, and convenient B&B in the Victoria area.

    Oak Bay Guesthouse is outstanding

    August 16, 2011

    We are traveling through Canada for four weeks visiting 11 hotels and B & B's on our way. The Oak Bay Guesthouse is by far the best value B&B we visited. The room was clean and agreable and the breakfasts scrumptious. They even give you a self-baked muffin for take-away as a snack. Our children were charmed! The Oak Bay Guesthouse is some 4 km from the city centre of Victoria so you need a car but you are assured a nice and quiet night's rest. The restaurant in the Oak Bay Marina at just a 5 minutes walk is a definte plus for this destination

    Quiet, roomy, private, and excellent breakfast

    August 16, 2011

    My wife and I stayed at The Oak Bay Guest House in Victoria in August of 2011. The house itself is quite large and the grounds it was built on are large as well. The house was originally built in 1912 and expanded to be an inn in 1922. Of course it has been updated with modern amenities yet it retains the original charm. Our suite was very nice with a sitting room, bedroom, and bathroom. The garden area is quite large and has tables and chairs so that people can enjoy the nice cool Victoria weather. The owners live on the bottom floor with private entrances. No bumping into them in the hallways, it's very private. The breakfast we had was excellent starting with the fresh fruit yogurt parfait and fresh cut fruit. Then my wife had the scrambled eggs with fresh caught salmon on a multi-grain bagel and I had the blueberry pancakes topped with fresh sliced strawberries. This was truly a great breakfast. I wish we didn't have to leave so early our first morning for a fishing trip because the breakfast at this place was definitely a key feature. I would recommend Oak Bay Guest House to the most discerning traveler.

    Great location and hospitality

    August 14, 2011

    We stayed two nights in early August 2011 and enjoyed walking the area and partaking of nearby restaurants. The hostess was kind and attentive and the breakfasts were wonderful.
