Our Exclusive Accommodations
Beachfront Cabins
Our beachfront cabins are the kind of place where you wake up to the sound of the ocean and don't bother checking the time. Rustic on the outside, comfortable where it counts — with a full kitchen or kitchenette depending on the unit. These are for people who want to be close to the beach without giving up a good night's sleep.
Ocean View Suites
Our ocean view suites put the Pacific right in front of you — floor-to-ceiling views that make you forget what day it is. They're a great fit for couples looking for a romantic Tofino retreat, or anyone who just wants a quiet, beautiful space to decompress.
Luxury Surf Bungalows
Our Surf Bungalows are the definition of luxury glamping in Tofino — iconic silver trailers fitted with everything you need, set among the trees and steps from the beach. They're for people who want a stay with personality, not a generic room number.
The Spartan Mansion
The Spartan Mansion is unlike anything else in Tofino — a fully restored vintage trailer with premium finishes and space to spread out. It's our most exclusive accommodation and books fast, so plan ahead if this one catches your eye.
