The property was extremely clean, and the host was very friendly. We were there at the beginning of storm season and enjoyed watching the weather from in front of the beautiful long fireplace. We like to cook and found EVERYTHING we needed was in the kitchen. The appliances wee all top of the line (Bertazzoni range, LG fridge) and worked well.

Billy's place was amazing, I wish we could stay here for longer! The house is very well kept with high quality furnishings and gorgeous views. We really enjoyed staying here and it was very centrally located to explore Tofino, Pacific Rim Park and Ucluelet. Billy is a great host as well, very communicative and helpful for local tips around the area to make our stay 5⭐. Thank you so much!

Absolutely A Stunning Retreat

We had an excellent four night stay at this amazing property. The view of Jensen’s Bay from the second storey living/dining room was fabulous. The house is modern, very clean and very well appointed. It is the perfect spot to chill and unwind. It is peaceful and private. Our host was excellent. He met us upon arrival and briefed us on its features. We will be back!

Pictures don’t do it justice

A beautiful home to stay in. Enjoyed the view of the forest from the back deck. So much natural light on the main floor. Kitchen has all kitchenware you need for making your own meals. The master bedroom and ensuite was top shelf. Our host was available if we had any questions- appreciate that.

Magical

Loved this home and its beautiful natural setting. The house is filled with light from windows and skylights and is surrounded by a bay changing with the tide and majestic trees. We found ourselves immediately relaxed as we were immersed in the beauty of that world. Also the house was immaculate and equipped with everything you could want. Our only regret was that we could not stay longer!

Beautiful Home with walkable location

My family stayed in Billy's house for 5 nights and we enjoyed every minute. We especially loved the short walk to Chesterman's beach, which was great for the kids. The house has comfortable rooms, excellent bathrooms, and a peaceful space for evening relaxation with a fire. One thing we really enjoyed about the home was the incredible raven mask hanging in the dining room. It is a marvelous piece of art and adds to the ambience of the place. We also enjoyed using the binoculars to watch the water and sitting out on the balcony. Billy was especially thoughtful during the tsunami warning and offered to come help us evacuate with the kids. Fortunately, that was unnecessary, but it shows that he is a caring, lovely person. It was a dream vacation and our time in Tofino was especially perfect thanks to this home base. Mahalo nui loa, Billy! Come visit on Kaua‘i any time!
