The capital city of British Columbia is found on the Pacific Coast of Vancouver Island. This sub-Mediterranean island playground has a mild climate and lovely green spaces. English pubs and colonial architecture hearken to the past, but Victoria’s eyes are set firmly on the future. The city was settled in 1843 and named after Victoria, Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. The Chinatown in Victoria is the second oldest on the continent. Canada’s Garden City is among the top cities in the world with the highest quality of life, and its coastline of deep harbors and peninsulas is stunning and unforgettable. Victoria is a city with a relaxed pace, and you will be glad to experience an extended stay. It’s time to check out the top long-term rentals in Victoria, Canada.

5. Quaint space for two near Galloping Goose Trail
It’s not every day you get to stay in a place owned by ice cream shop owners. Victoria truly is an exciting place, and the Airbnb host’s shop in Fan Tan Alley in Chinatown should be on your list of places to visit. This downtown spot for two is a fine example of a micro-loft, which by definition is a modern hotel room with the amenities of a home. Book this lovely and experience sleeping in a comfortable bed that converts to a kitchen table. Its waterfront location reminds you that you are on Vancouver Island and that water taxi service is available. Living in Downtown Victoria for a month or more puts you in a good position to dine, wine, and explore on foot.

9. Modern downtown oceanview loft
The rugged coastline is one of the best areas of Victoria, and you’d do well to book a long-term Airbnb with a view of the ocean and the harbor. The loft is the perfect space for a couple of travelers who value silence and privacy. The contemporary decor will make you feel at home, especially if you’re used to urban environments. The oak floors and luxury beddings will make you feel pampered. The suite is suitable for a small family with a child because there is a playpen in the apartment. The place is snug, but the glass windows let in much light. Guests will appreciate the custom cabinetry and upscale amenities.

10. Private studio in James Bay
A studio suite in a historic area should serve as your temporary address in Victoria. This delightful place with a view of the harbor and a few minutes to the shore gives you more time to enjoy the walks around James Bay. There’s an interesting reminder you’ll find in this Airbnb that says, “Work like a captain, play like a pirate.” It’s good advice to follow if you’re spending a month or more in a spectacular city. This studio has a kitchenette, a small refrigerator, and a coffee maker. If you don’t need anything fancy, then you’ve already found the best long-term rental in Victoria.
