Common questions
Can a multigenerational family stay together in one home?
Yes. Canterra Stays homes with separate levels and living areas give grandparents, parents and children room to be together without feeling crowded, and the largest sleep up to 20 under one roof.
How long do family visits last?
Canterra Stays plans family visits of a week or more, so relatives flying in have time to settle, cook together and see everyone, in a home with a full kitchen and laundry.
Is there equipment for young children?
Cribs are available on request at Canterra Stays homes, and every home has a full kitchen and comfortable bedrooms, so a family with young children can settle in properly.
Which Canterra Stays homes are closest to Toronto Pearson?
The Pearson Retreat and the Airport-Side Suite are the Canterra Stays homes closest to Toronto Pearson (YYZ), and most homes sit 20 to 40 minutes from the airport and from downtown Toronto.
How far ahead should a family stay be booked?
Canterra Stays' larger homes are typically booked 8 to 12 months ahead for school holidays, and off-peak family stays are often available at shorter notice.
