It had all the amenities we needed.

It was well stocked so that we could make all our meals in the kitchen, the hot tub water was heated and the BBQ worked perfectly. Additionally, it was in a nice location thst was quiet and peaceful.Initially, the dryer tripped off prematurely but the manager quickly responded to the issue.

It was the 4th year we have stayed at this property and loved every minute. The property managers are super responsive, the place is immaculate and you can't beat the location (bonuses are the backyard and hidden loft for young kids!)

Good location, can walk to beach. Nice big kitchen. Yard is quite overgrown (but you don't go to Tofino to stay in a backyard!). Would happily stay here again.

Weekend getaway

The property is tucked into its own little forest so it feels very private. Roomy, bright, very clean and has all the amenities including a wine fridge and a nice espresso machine. Very comfy beds, and lots of games in the living room. Perfect for the 6 of us. Highly recommend The Dunes for your stay in Tofino!

Perfect home for family get together near beach.

The Dunes was perfectly situated near Tofino’s beaches, town centre and the new bike trail. The home was very well equipped, spacious and comfortable. Viewwest and the host were helpful and attentive.
