Amazing location & accommodation
It was wonderful to experience exactly what was expected. The location was convenient & easy and the accommodation exceeded expectations. We couldn't have been more comfortable. The Property Managers were attentive and responsive without being over the top. The house was well equipped with what we needed - including the unexpected bonus of having Salt Spring Island shampoo and soaps available for our use. It was clean, the linens were good quality and the beds were comfortable. We'll be back!
Accurately advertised. Very welcoming and super clean. Danielle (host) was very quick to respond to any questions and very helpful.

Fabulous x 10
This IS the ideal spot to base your Tofino adventures. Super clean, total comfy, fabulous view, and my favorite, a chef level kitchen where I can finish my day with my own cooking!
This hilltop house was perfect for our family trip! Everything is neat and clean and cozy, and right across from the whale watching tours. Would stay here again
