Perfect Tofino Getaway
This was a three generation family vacation. Myself with two adult daughters and a four year old granddaughter. The location was beyond our expectations - just minutes from Cox Bay down a groomed path leading right to the beach. It was well appointed with plush towels, robes, tv, kitchen supplies etc etc etc. Would go again and highly recommend you try it.

Beautiful home steps away from Cox Bay
We had a group of six and all of us felt great in the three rooms. It was great to cook in the kitchen and the bbq on the deck. Comfortable to gather in doors or have dinner on the table outside. Washer and dryer were useful for us. The only downside was the hot tub powered off both nights as we tried to use the hot tub. Caretakers were quick to fix the issue when notified but it happened shortly after again. Still a 10/10 vacation home.

Amazing April
The beach was steps away, we hit perfect weather. The kitchen and living area was perfect for our group of 4, as well as the sunny deck. We appreciated the well stocked kitchen as we did not want to spend time looking for restaurants. Lots of stairs to the main floor but not a problem. Nice bedrooms and bathrooms.

Perfect Time in Tofino
This house was a perfect location for us to get to our day trips and hikes and beach. One of the nicest and well equipped rental properties we have stayed at. The hot tub and cozy robes made it feel like a resort experience, but at the same time it had the comforts of home. Hope to return someday!

Cox Bay Retreat - Fantastic Location, Great House
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cox Bay Retreat. The location was perfect for what we had hoped to accomplish during this trip. Over the course of several days, we walked to and spent time at Cox Bay Beach, which is only a few minutes away! We drove to several great hiking trails near Tofino and Ucluelet. There was plenty of room for all of us, and we spent our time unwinding in the kitchen, living room area, and the hot tub (of course!). I cannot say enough wonderful things about the folks in Tofino. This was one the best trips our family has had because of the people who live there, beginning with the property owners - they’re fantastic! Tofino Vacation Rentals was attentive and responsive, and of course, the friendly folks at Tofino and Ucluelet are one of a kind. Our family would happily stay at Cox Bay Retreat again - no doubt!

A weekend away
We had a great stay at the Cox Bay retreat. The place was super clean and lots of room for my husband and I, our two adult boys and their girlfriends. The kitchen was well stocked for all our cooking needs, we loved the spa like bathrooms, a great surf board rack with a hose to rinse off the gear and it was nice to be so close to the beach. A few minutes down the path and you are there. Highly recommend this place! We will be back :)

Beautiful location and house
The house is lovely and far better equipped than most rentals. The location is fantastic: closer to the beach than we had expected (it’s really close) but it still feels private and peaceful. Easy communication with the property managers. We would stay again in a heartbeat. We never felt crowded — even with four adults, two kids, and a dog. Good outside space and surf board rack.

Amazing Tofino getaway
We really enjoyed our stay. The kitchen had a gas stovetop, was fully equipped and made socializing easy. The bathrooms were amazing, with full size tubs and showers in both. The house is just off the main road enough to be accessible and also very quiet and relaxing. And last but absolutely not least, being able to walk to the beach in minutes with the dogs or all of our surf equipment and warming up in the hot tub afterwards really made our trip. What a great spot.

Perfect location, great property
We have been to Tofino a number of times and this was one of our best stays yet. Great communication and info from the host, the space is lovely, exactly as described, well set up kitchen, comfy beds and lots of clean towels. LOVE places that accept pets as they are part of the family and love the vacation just as much as we do. So great to take a short stroll down to Cox Bay and enjoy our days.

Great Family Vacation Location
For 2 of us, this was a repeat visit. We brought our Calgary based family of 2 adults and two teen grand daughters. They were impressed and delighted with the location, accommodation and amenities. The short walk to a large beach area was pleasant and facilitated bringing chairs and boards. Interesting weather, cool mornings and hot afternoons. Great sunsets. Close to Tacofino and other good outlets. Book early, you wont be disappointed.
