Highly recommend this gorgeous home for a group stay in Tofino. Well appointed home with beautiful inlet view in a quiet area but close to town. We particularly enjoyed the heated floors throughout, the fireplace, and hot tub. Well managed property. We hope to stay here again sometime!

The house we stayed in was great. It had a fantastic view of the bay with an incredible changing tide. The property was very quiet, secluded and private. I would highly recommend this location for anyone looking for a getaway to Tofino.

Comfortable home with views
Definitely five stars! Hot tub was clean, beds are comfortable, and everything you’d need in the kitchen was there. The views of the bay are lovely. Note there are thick hedges between the backyard and water so it’s not really water access. But the views are lovely. Recommended!

Fabulous Jensens Bay Retreat
We had the most amazing time at Jensens Bay Retreat! What a wonderful house in a spectacular location. The layout of the house is perfect for groups, with 2 wings and 3 bathrooms, with lovely products in the bathrooms. The lounge and dining area have lots of room, perfect for friends and family to congregate and enjoy a very happy time together! Huge thanks!

Beautiful family vacation
The house was amazing, the photos do not show how large it actually is. The kitchen was well equipped (we did a lot of cooking) and we found everything we needed. The beds and bedding were very comfortable and we all loved all the soap products. We walked to South Chesterman (with kiddos) and it was a short drive to the other beaches. The hot tub was lovely! A wonderful stay!

Beautiful location for friend weekend
From the moment you step into the house you are welcomed by a wide open space and gorgeous views of Jensen Bay. We had lots of room to hangout and eat meals. The rooms felt very private and all had a stunning view of the bay. It was a joy to eake up to every morning. We loved our time here and are already planning to come back. Had everything we needed for our friends weekend. In a great spot close to restaurants, chesterman beach and town.

We enjoyed the lovely living space and surroundings. It was quiet and relaxing and the local area also provided many activities for those that wanted to pursue them (biking, surfing etc.) We would certainly enjoy coming to stay again in the future.

Absolutely gorgeous home and view!
The view and inside of home are so much more beautiful than the pictures can show! The layout of the home was enjoyable, with kitchen and great room and huge dining table to hold all of us to eat, and play games together - all with a stunning view of the bay and mountains. The only downside was that there were a few hiccups with amenities while we were there (two caused by a power outage that happened moments after our arrival). The manager did her best to take care of issues promptly, and also gave us a discount on our stay, which was very fair. All and all a totally wonderful stay, and we would stay again.

Great location and space
This was the perfect spot for our family vacation of three adult couples. Each had their own room and bath and the great room with kitchen + living room was great for gathering. Kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans for most anything you'd need. Spent most of our time on the deck, even during a rainy day, since enough is covered. It was easy to foreget we even had neighbors since you can't really see any other houses and the water/mountain view is amazing. The multi-use trail is right there and easy ride to the beach and other spots. Or just a quick drive to town or hiking trails or beaches. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a quiet getaway, but still close to so many different activities.

West Coast View
What a beautiful home overlooking Jensen's Bay where we saw a mama bear and her cub come out to forage, bald eagles in the distance all from a sweeping balcony with plenty of chairs and a hot tub. The inside was well appointed with lots of sitting room, bed comfy and spacious bathrooms. Easy access to Hwy 4 and Tofino and Ucluelet, yet very quiet. Highly recommend it.

Great house for family vacation!
We had a wonderful visit to Tofino, and this house was perfect for our family of four. The kids each had a room and the parents were on the other side of the house, so there was privacy. Lots of time in the hot tub enjoying the view. Fully outfitted kitchen. Beds were comfortable.
