TOFINO HOTELS, WEST COAST VANCOUVER ISLAND
With a year-round population of approximately 1500 that swells to 22,000 people on some days during the summer months of July and
August, Tofino is located on a narrow finger of land called the Esowista Peninsula. Bordered on the South by its boundary with Pacific National Park Reserve and on its other three sides by the Pacific Ocean, Tofino is as far west as you can drive by car or bus and is still the only paved road to the open Pacific Ocean in Canada. This area is truly one of Vancouver Island's greatest treasures. It is a beautiful place with lots to see and do and great places to stay.
Located 3 hours by car from Nanaimo it is a popular day trip destination for many summer guests to Vancouver Island. Tofino is home to some of Vancouver Island's best resorts.
When we stay in Tofino these are the places we stay at (or in the case of the Wickaninnish Inn, would like to stay at!). We stay in Tofino when we want a multi-day getaway that allows us to fully enjoy the resort, the beach, the town and the quiet. And if you stay in Tofino you really should try one of the world class resorts there is on offer! And we had to list 4 because these 4 properties are outstanding!
MIDDLE BEACH LODGE
We were one of the first ever guests at this lodge in the early 1990's. It has now expanded and includes an adult only section and newer family friendly area. Famed for it's home baked muffins, cathedral high glass storm viewing windows and little known private beach next to the resort, this property (and it's campground, Bella Pacifica) remain one of our family favourites. Rustic ocean front lodges and cabins on open Pacific Ocean. Wilderness headland
and private sandy bay. Fireplaces, kitchenettes, hot tubs, ocean views. Excellent!
