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.

Paradise Cove

Wow! Stayed here a couple days after new years. What an amazing view. Very close walk to Chesterman beach which is a to do. We saw pretty much every beach in and around Tofino and Ucluelet. All very unique and different beaches. We brought our own food and what an amazing kitchen to cook in! You will not be disappointed! Thank you TVR!!!!

Vacation retreat par excellence!

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.

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!

Great stay!

Lovely large space with views out over the inlet and room for us all to sit and enjoy the fire on a cold and wet day. Well equipped kitchen and a nice dining area. We especially enjoyed having a bedroom and bathroom each. Easy drive to the beaches and town.

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!

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!
