Tax Information

The taxes we charge depend on the price per night of the accommodation.

$20 or less per night

• $20 or less per night = $140/ week, $280/ 2 weeks, or $600/ month.
• One of the rare items in Canada that are not subject to any tax at all.

$20.01 to $30 per night

• $20.01 to $30 per night = $140.01 to $210/ week, $280 to $420/ 2 weeks or less, or $600.30 to $900/ month.
• Subject to 5% GST, which is charged to most goods and services in Canada.
• Non-Canadians can receive a refund of the GST they paid during their stay, upon departing the country. Certain requirements and restrictions apply. On September 25, 2006, the Government of Canada announced the elimination of the GST Visitors' Rebate Program effective April 1, 2007. Under the proposal, non-residents may still qualify for a rebate after the effective date in specific circumstances.
