Victoria, British Colombia, is known as the ‘City of Gardens’ and it prides itself on its nature. The city seems to have a collective interest in gardening and an appreciation of nature. Museums and old buildings line the streets too, giving the city and its houses a distinct rustic vibe. The listings provided here are pretty magical and magazine worthy, and are fairytale-like listings. Take your pick; whether you like timeless Tudor-style houses or something modern and chic, these Airbnb vacation rentals are meant for taking the time to stop and smell the flowers:
1. Floral dreams in a Victorian style (53 USD) (from 54 USD)
First on this list we have a sweet Airbnb suite with Victorian-style furniture. Inspired by the region’s full blooms, the suite is filled to the brim with delicate, flowery prints, giving life and elegance to the home.
This vacation rental has got all the functionality and comfort of a luxury hotel suite but even more space at a great price. However, the bright pink bed sheets make it look as if it has a grandma’s warm and homely touch, so you don’t feel too far from home.
The lime green of the bathroom, great lighting, and claw-foot tub make this a great place for a casual soak after a long day out and about. This Airbnb apartment is a 20-minute walk from all the cool stuff happening downtown.
Heat up your meals and make some toast in this kitchen nook. May your cooking be as lovely and flavourful as this holiday house.

2. Little carriage house (68 USD)
This second listing is a cute and compact Airbnb carriage home. There is just something so endearing about the well-thought-out and minimalist design.

A ladder leads up to a comfy loft bed. Waking up to the rain in this little corner would be incredibly soothing and romantic. But take care and take your time; remember to go up and down facing the ladder!
