FLORENCIA BAY COTTAGE at Florencia Bay Retreat is a fully-equipped converted house-boat turned into a cottage with surrounding forest views and was newly renovated in 2022. The cabin is one of 4 that are located on 2.4 acres of old-growth spruce, hemlock and western cedar. This cabin showcases the natural beauty of the area.

This cottage is the perfect place to spend a Vancouver Island getaway, featuring a private deck nestled in the forest with a new hot tub located at the back of the cottage amongst the old growth trees. Florencia Bay Cottage features dramatic wood accents outside with a warmth and coziness on the inside. Upstairs sits a quaint bedroom with a king-size bed and a large window to view the beautiful old-growth forest. The main floor has the second bedroom with another king-size bed and a TV perfect for a movie night on a rainy day. The living room is a calming open space with brightness from the many windows throughout the Cabin. The couch pulls out to a queen-size bed, comfortable for an additional two guests. The kitchen is fully stocked to allow ease while preparing meals.

The kitchen island is a casual environment to eat at, or you can gather in the living room to enjoy mealtime while soaking in the views.

Beautiful, relaxing cabin
All communications from beginning to end were fantastic, the cabin was spacious, clean and well equipped. The hot tub was secluded and partially sheltered which was great even in the rain.

Wonderful way to end our trip
We spent the last third of our 9 day Vanc And Vanc Island trip at the cottage and it was such a great place to round things out. The cottage was super comfortable, quiet, and stocked with everything we needed and then some.

Would stay here again
We stayed over a long weekend in early March, and had a really nice time. This is a very thoughtfully decorated space. The photos are very representative of how it looks indoors and out. When we showed, up the hot tub was ready to go. The bedding was all very comfortable. Overall a great spot to relax.

A slice of paradise where hidden jewels lie!
I couldn’t recommend this place highly enough. 5 stars don’t do it justice. From the comfort of the cabin to the breathtaking nature it gives you access to, there is literally something for everyone! Will definitely be back!

The perfect enviroment for a island getaway
Really enjoyed the space at this property, the living room and kitchen made it easy to enjoy meals and spend time with each other. The beds were very comfortable and the hot tub was 10/10. Also you felt quite secluded in the forest! Wifi had some issues but the manager was very helpful in solving them! Looking forward to staying there again!

Gorgeous cabin in the trees
Lovely accommodation with privacy, comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, well located and maintained. When 6 people are staying it would be nice to have an extra comfy seat in the main room and 6 seats at the table (we were able to use the chairs from by the hot tub). There is a lot of light in the main room as curtains don’t cover the windows (not great for those sleeping on the sofa bed). Nice trail two doors down, very convenient for town. Would definitely visit again!

Friends Reunion
Met up with my best friends from university and had a great time. Some things to note, the place is cozy, only one bathroom and no dishwasher. That didn’t bother us and the hot tub made up for it. We would definitely void here again.

Wonderful, cosy getaway!
Florencia Bay Cottage is a beautiful, clean and cosy cottage. We played games during the bad weather and enjoyed the hot tub after a very wet hike. The beds were very comfortable, with lots of pillows. The heating system works perfectly and keeps the cabin toasty and warm. Thank-you for all the little "extras" like lots of towels and lovely candles. We would return again. Any inquiries were handled promptly and efficiently. Thank-you!

Quite a nice cabine
Very cute cabine, furnished with taste, and prepared with care. Ideally located on the main road, in the middle of big trees, and close to one of the most secret access to the national park. We had the beach for almost ourselves. The family and young kids loved it. We found 2 drawbacks. There is not a single washing machine on the property, whereas the ad mentioned a coin laundry - we had to go to Tofino in a laundromat, which is quite disappointing given the cost we paid. The other drawback was the bathtub, which is not convenient for adults and kids.

Beautiful cottage in a beautiful part of the world
A great location to explore Ucluelet and Tofino from and a super comfortable, private, immaculate accommodation to return to. Loved the hot tub beneath the trees. Easy communication with the property managers, I'd definitely recommend staying here
