Great location in that it’s so near the beach & only minutes away from Tofino. Liked the privacy the house offered with its secluded setting in the woods and enjoyed the hot tub. Kitchen counters could definitely stand a revarnish as they showed marks & had a stickiness to the surface. Was surprised to find a small pedestal sink in the only bath upstairs that is to service two bedrooms as there’s no place for any cosmetics, etc, otherwise enjoyed our stay at The Dunes

Great property within walking distance from a beautiful beach in a nice quiet area. The place was clean - only complaint was many of the cooking dishes needed to be re-washed prior to use but I suspect it was a previous renter that slipped past the cleaner. Would recommend the place and would stay again!

Great location. Nice layout and wonderful private deck and hot tub space. Very close to Chesterman beach. Kitchen is well equipped. There are some minor things - kitchen counters are wood and seem to be permanently sticky. Might need a refinish. No screens on the windows so if you want a cross breeze it’s possible for bugs to fly in. Wasn’t a huge issue but worth noting. Check in process was smooth.

A hidden gem in a very quiet area. A nestled hot tub in the trees in a private backyard. Large kitchen for cooking and well appointed rooms. Would come back again!
