Company information

Serenity Bed and Breakfast is the brainchild of Richard and Jane. Richard is a retired paramedic whose quirky humor and love of people bring warmth to each guest’s stay. Jane has run a variety of businesses and has put her artistic talent to good use in decoration to transform Serenity into its current state of fabulousness. Her years of customer service experience make her the perfect innkeeper. This couple has been long-term residents of Vancouver and can recommend fun things to do and see around town. Guests often rave about how close our location is to Royal Oak Skytrain station and Serenity's superb level of cleanliness. Many guests from Seattle and Interior B.C. come back year after year and make us their regular vacation spot. We have built many wonderful lifelong friendships with our guests, over wine, coffee, and tea and used Serenity B & B to help our guests to celebrate special moments such as Weddings, Birthdays, and anniversaries.
