About this property

Beat the heat in The Starlight Suite!

THE FULL RENOVATIONS ARE NOW COMPLETE!

The Starlight Suite offers a licensed fully-furnished two-bedroom apartment unit, walk-out basement suite, with it's own separtate entrance in my detached house. The shared and heated POOL IS OPEN JUNE THROUGH SEPTEMBER. The Starlight Suite is in a fantastic residential area of Coquitlam, called Ranch Park, and is about a 25 minute drive to Vancouver, BC. There are two twin-beds in one of the bedrooms, and a queen-bed in the master bedroom. The suite sleeps four comfortably, however, there is a double sofa bed plus a single roll-away bed available for up to seven staying in a pinch. There is free high speed wifi.

The living room, with an electric fireplace is open to the fully-equipped kitchen area, and both offer all the amenities of home. There is a full bathroom, plus a shared laundry room area. Also included in your stay, cable television with Netflix on a 51” flat screen. In the summer, if needed, I do also have a portable air conditioner which can be set up.

There is off street parking available in the driveway for 2 cars (I have seen some have 3 there). The driveway is right near the front door, without steps,
Which is great for guests with mobility issues.

There is access to the locked shared yard, with the large pool and swingset. Adult supervision is required for children as there is no supervision provided and no fence again between the playground and pool. There is a designated table and chairs, barbecue and lounge chairs for guests in the 2 bedroom suite.

The pool is shared, and for everyone’s enjoyment and safety, a sign up board is near the pool to book 1 hour time slots throughout the day, as others may wish to use the pool. The pool is open and heated June through September.

We are close to the Coquitlam Town Centre where there is the Coquitlam Centre Mall, West Coast Express, Evergreen skytrain station and many shops and restaurants. All are within a 6 minute drive. There is a bus stop about a 7 minute walk away which can take you to or from the Coquitlam Town Centre. You could walk down, but as we are in a hill you will want to take a vehicle back to the suite.

The suite has been extremely popular since 2003 as a great place for persons or families that are between buying and selling homes, vacationing in the area, visiting nearby family and friends, and insurance claims of fire and damage. We are sure you will enjoy your stay!

Feedback
Location is great if you have a vehicle- we didn’t but Uber was very easy to use. Place was great but it needs some updates everywhere in the suite. Owner was very receptive and indicated that she was doing some improvements in the fall. It also would have been helpful with a dehumidifier as Vancouver is very damp and rainy (expected) but the suite was dampish. Would stay again with some updates.

Great, Quiet Home in Coquitlam
We chose this location as we were visiting our son and other family in Coquitlam. It proved to be a very good place to stay for several reasons. The lovely property is close to Coquitlam Centre, Lafarge Lake, Mundy Park and Rocky Point Park. There are also a number of good eateries nearby. The cozy 2 bedroom suite suited us very well although our son found the single bed much too short for him. The suite has a very well equipped kitchen and there is also a laundry room that can be accessed. Although there was a hot tub mentioned, we never located it. Our host (Cory) was very friendly and easy to deal with as well as being very accomodating and flexible as our plans changed.Cory always answered our questions or queries quickly and efficiently. We will definitely consider staying at this property in the future when in or around the area.

About the host

Hosted by Cory O'Brien

Host profile image
I was born and raised in Coquitlam, and love it here! I had 5 children, and although they don't all live with me now, they all love this home in Coquitlam and the pool!

I had an earlier career in the Hospitality and Tourism industry, (Hotel front desk clerk, Travel Agent, and also Air Canada). After starting my family, I became a Realtor in the area in 1997 till the present. In 2002, I realized that there was a great need for people to have a 'home' and not a hotel when they were moving and between homes. There were only a couple 'vacation rental properties' in all the lower mainland when I started out with the Starlight Suite. I sold my vacation rental, 'The Mermaid Hutch' in Birch Bay, Washington, USA, which I operated as a vacation rental since 2004.

My family and I have been blessed with meeting such wonderful people through the vacation rentals. As pleasurable as the suite is to guests, we enjoy having people as well! Come and stay...I am sure you won't be disappointed.

Why they chose this property

My home is in a desireable and well established area of Coquitlam. The lots here in this area of Ranch Park are larger than average, and have gorgeous mountain views out to the East. Coquitlam Centre Mall and the Towne Centre is at the bottom of the hill, less than a 10 minute drive away.

What makes this property unique

My Starlight Suite - 2 bedroom unit is the perfect stay for families or a group of adults. The summer is amazing with time spent by the pool and the barbeque!
