We…read morestayed in the "designated pets room", not because we had a pet, but because the other rooms were sold out. The tile floors were heated and there were no pet-like smells! Everything was cozy. I loved the warm room and natural light let in by the large skylights. Because it's couple-y, I suppose, there was no phone in the room. When we wanted to book sea kayaking, the owner made the phone call for us. The two rooms labeled "Forest View" are in a building separate from the main one. A storage room is between the two, so it was totally quiet and felt all to ourselves. I really didn't mind not having the Ocean View. We could still hear it, or go out to the common deck or down to the beach. The Great Room where breakfast is served has a wonderful view, and has a telescope for birdwatching. It opens to the deck with a hot tub, and stairs down to the private beach. See photos and descriptions on their very thorough website. They also have winter rates for the storm watch season! Free Wi-Fi in the Great Room (which, I suppose, might reach the rooms in the main building).

I recently spent two nights at A Snug Harbour Inn and had a fabulous time! What I enjoyed most was…read morethe view, fresh air and quiet stillness, not to mention laying out in the sun on our private deck. However, none of these rivalled the warmth and hospitality of Sue and Drew, the wonderful couple that own and run the establishment - and their funny and social dog, Malcolm. Without them, the Inn would just be another inn. While this is definitely a romantic spot suitable for couples, I visited with a friend and it was just as enjoyable. The Inn is in a super location, private, yet close to the Wild Pacific Trail and within walking distance of the town of Ucluelet and its restaurants and shops. I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a getaway in Ucluelet!

It was a 1 bedroom with a queen bed and a sofa couch. Surprisingly both were very comfortable. There was a full kitchen with pots, plates and utensils, but no tin foil. The outside tub is a tub; not a hot tub. Filling it up half way takes up all of the hot water for your unit and then you have to wait 90 minutes for your hot water tank to reheat. That was the only downside as the water in the tub went cold within 20 mins and we were forced to wait another 70 mins to take a shower. Also, the hot water in the shower only lasts about 5-10mins so you have to take very quick showers.

Pros: - EV charging stations available - Plenty of movies, games, and books complimentary to borrow during your stay - Complimentary beverages at the concierge lounge (ex.

The resort is immaculately maintained. Staff are very pleasing and accommodating. Our room was clean and hand sani was readily available. We booked an beach front suite and was completely blown away. Our backdoor opened up to a vast expanse of greenery which was 15 steps to the beach. Filled with picnic tables, fire-pits, hammocks, lawn chairs that face the ocean...what more can you ask for. It was a staycation 2.0 for sure. Upon entering our suite, a bottle of complimentary wine was waiting for us. All kitchen utensils were complete and ready for our use, properly sanitized. In the lobby, check in was a breeze. Free Rhino coffee and hot chocolate 24/7. A small service pantry was available if you forgot anything ...every detail was thought of and prepared for you. For guests, a free smores kit is being handed out for guests to enjoy the fire pit and bond around a campfire. Bike rentals can also be had for a mere $15 for 4 hrs or $30 the whole day. Our pet got to stay for free, with no extra pet cleaning fee, as a courtesy for returning guests. And of course, we were accorded a late checkout for us to enjoy our stay more. From the moment you wake up to the sound of the ocean and the cool breeze going through your window, you are surrounded by nature's beauty all around. Such an excellent place to relax and unwind and feel the sand between your toes. Miles and miles of beach to walk and explore, and the water provided a welcoming relief to the scorching heat. Yes, it is a bit pricey, i must admit. But once in a while, you have to treat and love yourself. This place is simply amazing. Watching the sunrise and set and see the glow of the beach at night from the moonlight, reminds you that life is beautiful. A must go for everyone. A must try for first timers. A must add-on for your bucket list. Explore your own backyard. Cheers! Happy exploring!

As you walk in the door there is a little living space/kitchen complete with a thick mattress futon, electric fireplace, table sink, stove and mini fridge. Upstairs is a spacious bedroom with TV and the 3 piece bathroom. There was a queen bed and more enough space for us to easily set up the playpen we had brought for the baby to sleep in. The location put us close not only to the beaches but also the town as well as the nature trail walks. Our little family of four found the cabin quite cozy.

The main drawback is the distance from the town centre (a 10 minute walk), but it's only a few steps to a great local coffee place, Shelters Restaurant (a nice seafood restaurant that also has reasonably priced casual fare like burger and pizza for $11-$14) and Jack's Waterfront Pub for a beer with the locals. Given that the hostels in town start from $30 a night, this is a great budget option.

Included breakfast was decent with boiled eggs, fresh fruit, fresh croissant, bagels, toast, ham/cheeses, and juices/coffee/tea. The negatives- The first lower level ocean view room with patio we stayed in the first night we checked the linens and bed as we normally would - discovered the sheets and pillow covers were past their prime and had that well used scent. Worse the duvet was likely hardly or never cleaned and had many stains, liquid spills/accidents, and what seemed like old blood. We notified the staff the next morning of this. Our second night we stayed at a upper level ocean view room with patio and checked the linens and bed - this room had similar condition linens and pillows and duvet didn't have as nearly as many stains. Sorry but these are not items an establishment can cheap out on - to clean thoroughly and/or replace when needed. There are no excuses for these conditions. Also no television in rooms or lodge.

Room options include 2 lodges plus triplex and duplex cabins with us choosing room 28, a second floor queen in the Headlands Lodge. In 2004 and 2006 we stayed at the adult only Lodge on Beach, but found the rooms too small. Our room had a micro patio offering a pretty good view of Mackenzie Beach if one leaned out over the railing. The lodge is very eco friendly going back to its original construction and furnishings. The setting is drop dead gorgeous with unobstructed views of Middle and MacKenzie beaches. Every employee we encountered throughout our stay proved to be both friendly and helpful. A continental breakfast is offered each day that covers the bases, but it became repetitive after 3 mornings. Dinner is served in season at the Lodge at the Headlands 5 nights per week with appetizers available in the Great Room beginning at 6PM. The evening's appetizer, lemon guacamole crustini, was excellent. At 7PM everyone joined a conga line for dinner that featured an entree of poached Chinook salmon with a spicy tomato chutney and lemon linguine. Three excellent salads were served buffet style - spicy quinoa, green beans and a mix salad with orange segments and roasted squash. Desserts included a choice of chocolate lava or mille-feuille. The chocolate lava cake was unexpectedly dry, the only misstep of the evening.

They are also the perfect options for a family trip with kiddos. Rent one of 30+ cabin or tree houses for a week and you'll never want to go back home! This resort has the most amazing staff, they are always smiling and offering to help in anyway they can, whether it's a text to see if you require anything, to opening the door when you've got your hands full! Their property is fully equipped with a playground with tons of fun wooden structures that the kids will love and get hours of play from. Perfectly located steps from the beach and a hop, skip and a jump to town. In their office they have DVD's, board games, coffee, tea, an adorable herb garden just outside the doors and a social area. They even have a box of toys and beach gear for the kids to play with! Our log cabin was amazing! We were stunned how everything was included in the stay as well. In our private secluded cabin we had a cozy outdoor area to enjoy breakfast and a good book. We had our own BBQ which comes with all the tools you'll need to whip up an amazing BBQ dinner. Our very own private hot tub, we took full advantage of that! It had all the bells and whistles and was the perfect night cap to a great day. Inside we had a massive fireplace with all the wood you require to keep your cabin as warm and cozy as you'd like, we only put one log on and it lasted all night long. Not to mention the rooms were already warm with in-floor heating that kept our toes warm! The shower is beautiful and fits 2 for sure, felt like a rainforest! The bed was massive and super comfy. I love how they have a full kitchen, it literally includes every single kitchen tool and gadget that you might need to cooking, baking, roasting, BBQ'ing, shall I go on? They even have a Cabin Stocking Program where you leave it to them to stock your cabin so you arrive with groceries and everything you need to settle in! I haven't been to a resort that literally thinks of everything! Missing something? They will ensure it's on your doorstep asap! There is so much to see and do on your vacation to Tofino, but you'll definitely want to set some time aside for perusing around the hotel grounds or just enjoy a cup of coffee on your balcony and enjoy the sweet sounds of the crashing waves and the smell of fresh air. The grounds are well kept with beautiful flowers and not too much clutter to distract from the natural views. You're only steps away from all the outdoor adventures your heart desires, from paddle boarding and kayaking, to hot springs, fishing and hiking. Bonus, they are pet-friendly and also offer up to 60 private RV spots! Don't have an RV?They have 9 Glamping RV's you can rent as well! It's crazy because there was a vehicle in each spot but I didn't seem many people around, we were truly secluded in our private little nook which nice for a change!
