The backyard provides a tranquil setting for some downtime during your holiday. Warm up in the hot tub after a dip in the Pacific or enjoy a glass a wine around the wood fire pit. The backyard is complete with a beautifully landscaped garden with hot tub, BBQ and fire pit which provides the perfect relaxation zone. Enjoy the surf rack and outdoor shower after a day of surfing South Chesterman.

Perfect getaway for a family of 4 with two teens
The house is perfect with a big fully stocked kitchen (cooking gear), three bedrooms and living area. Especially nice was the outdoor shower to keep the place clean after the beach and prior to the hot tub. the cost is relatively high but in line with other accommodations and from that perspective a good value. Equally nice was that it is dog friendly which saved the cost of boarding. We'll be back!

The place had everything we needed plus had a hot tub, fire pit and BBQ grill. It was close to Tofino townsite so it was easy to pick up anything needed for meals. The beach was a short walk away and was great for long walks.

Lovely relaxing getaway
We had a great stay for 4 days. The home is like a 2 minute walk to the beach which is amazing. They were kind enough to send us some firewood and the home also had many little hidden touches that most other rentals wouldn’t have. The main bedroom mattress could use a bit of flipping and/or fluffing as it’s a bit ‘dippy’ but that’s probably my only negetive comment. Great stay and we would come back for sure.

We expected more
This VRBO was ok. I’m very surprised at the amount of money this cost, to the poor maintenance of the property. I’m going to summarize my review into a plusses and minuses. Plus: - The kitchen was well stocked and had everything needed for 4 people. - The distance to Chesterman beach was a plus. Short walk, and interesting. - Bathroom Essentials were well stocked. - Enjoyed the two complimentary beers provided. - The beds, pillows and blankets were comfortable and well received. - It’s nice to have a hot tub in the back yard. - Internet worked well. Minus: - Kitchen faucet tap was broken and popped off immediately after use. - The provided bluetooth speakers were completely dead, and would not recharge. This is a common problem as per the internet, and was frustrating. - The bathroom door does not lock. - The rear door to the backyard would not stay closed without locking it. - For the amount that we paid, I would expect fully stocked wood in the backyard for fires. It’s frustrating to have to go buy $17 overpriced wood at CO-OP when the owner can spend $150 for a cord that lasts the summer. - No “Pokey Stick” for the fire. - The hot tub lid was broken and waterlogged. This owner has a whole list of rules regarding the hot tub, but because the lid was in such poor maintenance. They don’t seem to care at all. - Poor shower-head in the bathroom. Overall. This should have been better.

Great spot to stay in Tofino - Chesterman Beach
We stayed for 4 nights for Spring Break with our teenage children, and had a great time. The location is prime, Chesterman is a wonderful place to stay and to hang out. The walk to the beach is maybe 2 min max. The house is nice, comfortable and cozy with great amenities. Hot tub, fire pit, big comfortable beds and high speed internet. Win First time using VRBO and had a great experience. Will leverage this service again.

Dream family stay in Tofino!
First, the entire property looks exactly like the photos. Super clean, well organized and cozy! Basic amenities as well as “extras” are provided, such as water jackets, warm ponchos, pizza maker and pizza dough/yeast, etc. Second, while this home is not on the beach, it is literally a 5 min walk away. Don’t let the location discourage you at all. It’s also only 10 mins from the Main Street in Tofino, where all the shops and restaurants are. Super easy to get around by car or bike! We did both. Last, the outside area of the home is lovely. Jacuzzi, fire pit, s’mores sticks, seating area… just perfect! Definitely book this for a summer vacay! We plan to visit again soon.

Great Tofino Base Camp
This house was immaculately clean, well furnished, and very quiet. The kitchen is well equipped for major cooking, which we did, and the hot tub is to die for. It’s about a mile to the beach, easy walking on a quiet back road. The single bathroom is upstairs, not a problem for us, but might be for mobility challenged. The managers were prompt and effective communicators, and clearly committed to making our stay the best. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat.
