Peaceful Haven
We spent a wonderful week staying at J-Bay with our 2 young adult sons. It was a stormy, rainy week, but we still really enjoyed getting out surfing and walking on the beach. Returning to this beautiful, peaceful home to feel nestled away from the stormy weather outside was so nice. The house is beautiful and spacious and has everything you need to relax, enjoy time together, or find a nook to get some solitude. Because of the stormy weather, we didn't get to enjoy sitting out on the little deck on the inlet, but it looked like a beautiful spot to spend some time in better weather. We did have some stormy soaks in the hot tub! We have always stayed on the Chesterman's Beach side of the highway, but we loved how quiet the inlet side is and would definitely stay here again.

JBay was a peaceful and private get away to help celebrate my wife’s birthday. Plenty of room for two couples. Everything you need is provided, exceptionally clean and with a hot tub to soak in after beach hiking and riding bikes.

Perfect for our family
We loved tofino and the property! It was perfectly suited for a family-even had some toys to help us get through some cold and rainy days. The dock and hot tub were big hits plus we loved be closer to the beaches but a short drive to town. The home is beautiful and simple but has all that you need to cook meals and have family time. Would come back anytime!

Luxury in the Bay
Our entire family felt spoilt being in such a lovely house in the perfect location between Tofino and Ucluelet. We had 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and each room was equally lovely. The hot tub and porch in the back were especially lovely treats after long days of hiking and biking. The only downside was our 7th family member couldn’t join due to strict Tofino bylaws, which was a shame as the house could easily accommodate extra guests,

Amazing hideaway
This property was exactly as pictured in the listing. Modern, clean, spacious yet with private bedrooms tucked away. The hot tub was a perfect way to unwind after surfing and enjoying morning coffees on the dock near the inlet was a great way to start the day.

Beautiful home base
We spent a week reuniting with extended family here. The home was very comfortable and we enjoyed the hot tub at the end of our day hikes. We had such beautiful weather which was an added bonus for seeing the sites. Very happy with the easy access into the house and communication with the host. Thanks for an enjoyable stay.

A few things fell short
Great layout of the cabin, great light and such a bonus that everyone had their own ensuite. Some of the interior finishes were poor quality and starting to wear out (kitchen cabinetry, washroom baseboards, plumbing fixtures) and there was mould and scum in the showers and at base of master tub. The dishwasher didn’t clean the dishes properly and the oven was filthy and took ages to heat up. Coffee maker has a used filter in it, and there was hair in the cupboards. No shampoo or body wash, which we were told after weren’t included but we could find in town. Couch is fabric and has stains on it. Downstairs sleepers said there is bad noise insulation between floors with footsteps and that the bedding was synthetic so they trapped too much heat. We liked the fireplace, tall ceilings and live edge accents. It was private and an overall nice place to build some family memories.

Perfect Location and Destination
We were a party of three couples. So the floor plan with three suites was a great arrangement for us. Also, the hot tub and outdoor living amenities were great. We spent lots of time on the deck sitting on the water’s edge.

Wonderful stay!
My family with adult children had the most wonderful holiday in Tofino. J-Bay house was the perfect space, layout and location. We had a couple of minor things and the property manager was very responsive and helpful. Everything was quality throughout although we thought that the one towel per person and the quality of towels was a bit stingy. We also were a bit hot at night with the duvet and there we no lighter blankets available but then Tofino is not used to those temperatures I suppose. A great time was had by all and we all hope to go back!

The pictures don't do this place justice!
The photos in the listing look great, but this place is really amazing and you don't really get that until you walk thru the doors. My family, my husband and I and our adult son and daughter spent 3 weeks in BC in July. We stayed in 5 different VRBO houses and this was our favorite ...hands down. The house is spacious and beautiful. The beds and bathrooms outstanding and the view from the deck that sits on the tidal flat made me not want to go home. I watched eagles fishing each day! This is a fabulous place and if you are staying in the Tofino area this is the place to stay- its also just a 10 min drive to town!

Great for a family!
We travel with our little one (20 months old) and the house was a perfect space for them. It had a high chair, toys, baby dishwater and cutlery, and so much open space. On top of all that we could enjoy the dock or hot tub while they slept. The space is beautiful and full of light. I look forward to booking again for our next vacation!

Stunning west coast property
We spent four nights at this property. It is in a beautiful residential setting and nestled amongst the forest with views of the bay. The house is stunning, perfect for our family vacation. Having the hot tub and BBQ was a bonus. The house is well equipped, and all that you really need to bring is yourself, food to cook, and an intension to have a wonderful piece of oasis that is this property. We will definitely be back.

Wonderful family getaway
Our family had a fantastic weekend at J Bay Guesthouse. The home is beautifully designed and decorated. It’s well equipped with everything you’d need for a comfortable stay. My husband had plenty of space and everything he needed to make a full roast dinner! There were toys and a high chair available for my toddler too, which we appreciated. We also enjoyed a nice soak under the stars in the hot tub to wind down. The house is a short drive from the beaches and town, so it was easy to get supplies if we forgot something. Clear communication with the owners too. I highly recommend staying at J Bay! You won’t be disappointed.

Spacious and scenic j bay guesthouse.
We had a lovely stay at j Bay guesthouse. Our party consisted of 4 adults and we had plenty of room to enjoy inside as well as outdoors. The grounds were very lush and private surrounding the hot tub. The boardwalk led out to a stunning view of the bay where many hours of reading were spent. Highly recommend staying here if your looking for a peaceful place and yet central to many fabulous beaches to explore. Hope to return.

Amazing vacation home
This house exceeded our expectations. We stayed with two kids and my parents, and the layout of the home was perfect. Each bedroom has an generously sized bathroom and ample space for suitcases. The master suite tub is a perfect place to soak in the morning sun. Location was quiet and ideal for quick access to beaches. Chesterman Beach is walkable. Only downfall was the home got a bit warm without any fans. Other than that it was amazing. We will be staying there again for sure!
