The spacious guest house comes with 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, bed linen, towels, a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, a dining area, a fully equipped kitchen, and a terrace with garden views. Featuring air conditioning, this unit has a dressing room and a fireplace. This guest house is allergy-free and non-smoking. Excellent value for money. We found a fully equipped kitchen, living room, dining area and upstairs an enormous bedroom with a wonderfully comfortable bed. Immaculately clean.The bathroom is downstairs, so not for those with mobility issues but for us, this was a wonderful find. Highly recommend.

For added privacy, the accommodation has a private entrance and soundproofing. Wayne and Michelle were great hosts, very helpful. The apartment was very clean and comfortable, and it felt like a home away from home for the two weeks I was there. It was also the perfect location.

The property is non-smoking and is located 1.2 km from Tonquin Beach. I loved it! My room was adorable and the bed was super comfortable. Even though there were only two bathrooms, I never had to wait, and the bathroom was really nice. The house overall was very clean, had a pleasant temperature, and smelled great. The kitchen had everything you could need and an amazing view. The location was also excellent. I would definitely stay here again if I visit Tofino in the future.
