A beautiful suite with so many small details to make your stay comfortable, like easily accessible outlets for charging devices, ear plugs, a fully stocked kitchen, extra towels for the bathroom/beach/sauna. The decor is beautiful as well, the suite is incredibly peaceful but still just a few minutes away by foot from South Chesterman beach. Very thoughtful host from the first email until our last text as we pulled away from the property. Will 100% try to book again when we go back

This is one of the nicest places I’ve ever stayed using VRBO. Its location is perfect, and it is wonderfully equipped. The beds are so comfortable, giving an amazing night’s sleep after a long day of walking nearby Chesterman Beach. Host was so nice!

We had a great stay here! Our host has made her home a place where you can feel very comfortable. Loved being able to walk to the beach using a path through the trees. Would highly recommend this accomodation to anyone.

Favourite Stay in Tofino!

This suite has a warm cabin vibe, is very clean and stocked to perfection. The hosts are also very accommodating. The best part is that it’s only a 5 minute walk to our favourite Chesterman beach :)
