Wow what a great little motel. It was like staying at your nan's place. Exceptionally clean to the point of immaculate, and wow that view! The furniture was old fashioned but in excellent condition. We watched seals playing at the front and an eagle eating a fish. There was also a kitchenette that was well appointed in terms of functionality and appliances. Great value for money.

Located in downtown Tofino, the suites at Himwitsa Lodge have scenic views of the Clayoquot Sound. It features a fish shop and native art gallery on-site.

A private entrance and deck with sea views lead to every suite at Lodge Himwitsa. Guests can relax on the sofa bed in the living room and watch the satellite TV. We loved the location. The dock front was lively but very peaceful. Watching the sunset from our balcony was quite a great. This is a family run business with lots of attention to detail. They made us feel very welcome and special.
