We've stayed at lots of resorts in Tofino - not all are great - but we know which ones ARE... Take a look at our top picks for the best resorts - for couples and families.
The Best Tofino Resorts
Long Beach Lodge Resort
One of our favourites! Sophisticated with a bit of "rustic," this resort is situated at Cox Bay (a smaller part of the Pacific Rim beach). It's a perfect resort if you just want to relax and walk the beach. Cox Bay is uncrowded, and one of the best spots to try out surfing. Our Favourite? Check out the Great Room - a sitting room for guests with a huge fireplace, large windows, and oversized chairs. Relax in here and watch the incredible sunsets.
The Wickaninnish Inn
If you're willing to shell out the big bucks, then this is the place! Perched on rocks overlooking the Pacific, this famous luxury resort also has been rated as one of the top health spa vacations destination (Ancient Cedars Spa) in North America. The Wickaninnish Inn is a good place for everyone: a luxury romantic resort for couples and also welcoming for families. The restaurant is incredible, and the service is excellent.
Pacific Sands Beach Resort
Another top favourite resort. Located on Cox Bay, the Pacific Sands has a variety of excellent rooms to choose from and some pretty well-priced packages too. All rooms have a fireplace and ocean view. The resort offers hot tub rooms too to make this a luxury romantic resort stay. Friendly and helpful staff round out this oceanfront retreat. Downside: There's no on-site restaurant at this resort. However, if that's not high on your list, then it's still an excellent place to stay. Catch a good dinner out and the Schooner Restaurant (our favourite) in downtown Tofino. NOTE: all rooms come with an equipped small kitchen if you don't mind making your own.
A Bit Cheaper Option...
If you're interested in scaling down for a slightly cheaper stay, we'd recommend the ...
Best Western Tin Wis Resort
. Basic hotel-style room, but all rooms are quiet and with an ocean view. We enjoyed our stay and the location is right in front of Mackenzie Beach (beautiful for a lazy stroll). We didn't find the staff all that friendly, but if you don't care about that, then this resort makes for a slightly more affordable option.
