Cozy yet spacious

Large comfortably furnished great room with lots of puzzles and games. We enjoyed the hot tub, with its woodland and ocean views. We never heard or saw the upstairs neighbours. A perfect property for families or couples. Nice that all 3 bedrooms were ensuite.

Wonderful winter retreat

We loved our getaway to Tofino over the holidays. The rustic sauna a hot tub and picturesque boardwalk was wonderful on the quiet side of the inlet! Just across the street was the incredible Chesterman beach. Great for storm watching and surfing. The space was well equipped and great to have a bathroom off each bedroom. Great communication with hosts.

Beautiful House and Property in a Great Location

I travelled with my husband and adult children (my son, daughter and her boyfriend). We were very impressed with the house and property. The house has a great table that can easily sit 8 people. The bedrooms all have their own bathroom with showers and the living room has lots of seating with a view of the inlet. The hot tub sits at the end of the deck overlooking the inlet - you can't beat the view! At night the tall trees get misty - it's a great experience. Driving into Tofino takes about 5 minutes - so very quick. You're also close to very beautiful beaches. If we went back - we would definitely stay there again.

Wonderful

We all loved our stay at cedar view in Tofino. We loved the open floor plan, and that we all had our own bathrooms attached to our bedrooms. Loved the big covered porch with all the patio chairs and the hanging chair. The men loved the hot tub and really enjoyed the sauna. The location is a nice close walk to Chesterman beach which is a must for us, less than a 10 min drive into the town of Tofino. Things of note….it would be nice to have towel racks in the bathrooms to hang wet towels, the showers/tub could use a little TLC and someone does live upstairs (not an issue for us). Overall we loved our stay here and would come back to stay in the future. A beautiful property

Perfect place for a family reunion

A well-located, easy-to-find a home with all you need for 3 couples to enjoy time together. The private bedrooms with bathrooms is terrific and the rest of the space is common area. The kitchen is well equipped, everything in working order, and any questions we had were promptly answered. The only thing that surprised us is you actually can't walk onto the beach, but that's ok as the entire area is full of beaches. The view from the hot tub is amazing, especially as the tide comes in and out. We would definitely stay there again.

Not as advertised

positives: hot tub and views. Walking distance of South Chesterman beach (15 mins). Negatives: 1. Owner lives upstairs. lots of footstep and toilet flushing noise. 2. EV Charger is shared - owner has 2 EVs so not easily accessible. 3. Sauna - I got carbon monoxide poisoning. I advised the agent who said they'd put a CO monitor in the sauna, but I note the listing has merely been updated to recommend you bring one. I have reached out to Island Health Public Health Medical Officer about this. 4. The property is very tired and has had minimal upkeep. The range hood is broken. Multiple blinds are broken in bedrooms, including the bedroom behind the kitchen where there are automatic lights that go on and off every time someone goes to the upstairs property which shine through a window without a blind. 5. The general feel is of someone who's on the take to maximize the $ from a property in a high worth area, but isn't prepared to invest to make it the luxury property it's allegedly advertised as. There are many better places to rent in Tofino. I'd avoid this one. I presume other reviews are from earlier in its rental time. This is from August 2024.

Not the entire house, as advertised

This property is in an idyllic setting, but the home itself is in need of upkeep. First of all, the listing says “entire home” (I always filter for that), but you are NOT in fact renting the entire home. There is another flat upstairs that allows you to hear everyone’s footfalls and voices. This was very disappointing to us. Also, while the lower level does sleep six, there are only six coffee mugs and slightly more glasses, meaning the dishwasher has to be run every day. This is in conflict with the island’s desire to conserve water. The house was musty and the showers very small. There was no can opener, and the only corkscrew was a small piece on the bottle opener. However, this all being said, the outdoor amenities are wonderful (except there’s no handle on the inside of the sauna door, which seems dangerous), and you have two beautiful decks to enjoy right on the water. One afternoon, a black bear came strolling along the beach at low tide! The firepit could use a stair or two to get in and out, but it provided us with a lovely relaxing way to enjoy our evenings. A quick walk to Chesterman Beach is as advertised, and that was also a wonderful way to spend the day.

The house was nice. Loved the native carvings on the bed. Hot tub was great. We were surprised someone lived upstairs. The Delong coffee/espresso maker didn’t work but they had a French press so our morning coffee was saved. Two showers had curtains 2 inches too short so water got all over the floor. And there was no shampoo or conditioner and a tiny bar of soap so we had to do a shop right away. Other than that it was a nice place to hang out in between adventures. Beds were nice. Great cooking supplies.

Special Visit

This could be a lovely property but needs some TLC. The pictures on line are old and do not reflect the condition of the house. Main bathroom/master was a spa bath but not useable and so old the cleanliness was suspect. The two other shower bathrooms the shower curtains did not reach floor, sink was so slow draining. Blind broken in one bedroom and mouldy. Sitting room/ dining room/ kitchen nice but again very tired.

Great place, bad communication

It was my first time staying at Cedarview. I had high expectations due to all the good reviews and its features such as hot tup, fire place, and sauna. However, I was not able to use any of the above during my stay. I personally think this could have been better if this was communicated. Before the trip, I had couple of questions to ask so I contacted the host. They replied a day after saying that I am not booked for the days I booked two months before I asked the question. I had to reply back with my booking info and, luckily, they found my booking and replied back with an answer, a day later. I had couple more important questions but the reply was always late and I asked to provide a check in instruction and reply was "it should've been provided with booking. I'll send it again." True, eventually found the old email, but the email he said he will provide again is still not in my in box. Mostly importantly, the place is advertised with all the great features, none of which we could use. If there are local restrictions during the stay that is impacting what you are selling your rentals for, let your customers know in advance so that we can make a better decision on choosing where to stay. It almost feels that we got scammed and never got our money's worth. Like I mentioned in the beginning of the review, all these could've been resolved before the stay, just with a better communication and maybe some transperancy. But that maybe might be too much to ask.
