Trusted Home Rental Hosting for Homeowners in North and West Vancouver and Immediate Surrounding Areas
Hi, I’m Christa, the creator of Sea to Sky Vacation Rental. I’m passionate about helping people, simplify their lives, create beautiful spaces, and make their home work for them. I started this journey to make a difference and share my expertise. When I’m not busy keeping up with my two teenagers or hosting, you’ll find me hiking with my sidekick, Enzo in the North Shore trails.
Meet Christa
Christa was working a typical 9–5 job, trying to balance the rising cost of living with raising her two young children.
With her pay grade capped and expenses climbing, she needed a way to increase her income while still being present for her family. A friend suggested she try short-term renting the suite in her home. At first, Christa hesitated—she worried about privacy, the kinds of guests who might stay, and whether issues would arise. But after taking the leap, everything changed. The suite quickly became a huge success, consistently booking out and reaching a remarkable 95% occupancy rate. What started as a small idea turned into a life-changing opportunity—one that gave Christa both financial freedom and more time with her children.
Seeing how this opportunity transformed her own life, Christa began to wonder how many other people would love to do this but don't have the time? I knew first hand what it felt like to be stretched then - wanting more time with family, wanting the financial ability to take a vacation, plan special events, tackle renovations and check off those ‘one day’ wish list items, but not knowing how to get there.
What started as a personal solution quickly grew into a passion: helping homeowners unlock extra income and finding solutions without adding more to their already busy schedules.
After seeing friends struggle with unreliable property management and inconsistent results, Christa saw an opportunity to create something better — a boutique, relationship-based hosting service designed specifically for homeowners in North Vancouver and West Vancouver who want to rent their homes while they’re away.
