This beach cottage is so charming!! We booked it for our 30th anniversary. You have your own garden, outdoor patio and one minute walk to the beach. It’s fully self-contained with lots of privacy, soaker tub and pot belly gas fireplace. We enjoyed many beach walks and sipping coffee out front on the wooden beach chairs. Todd made us feel welcome and checked on us through out our stay.

We stayed for 4 nights at the beginning of February in the Lookout Suite for a mid-pandemic getaway. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The suite is exactly as the pictures show - comfortable, cozy and well-equipped. The views of the beach, through the fore-shore vegetation were stunning and one could sit mesmerized watching the waves roll in for hours! The sound of the surf made for a relaxing soundtrack! The suite is attached to the side of the main house, with it's own private entrance. We heard no noise from the other suite in the rest of the house, or from the grounds. We had a very peaceful and relaxing stay! There is no foot traffic near the suite, making for a very private and secluded feel. There is a kitchenette with all amenities minus a stovetop. The bathroom is equipped with heated towel rack and a tub. The deep Japanese-style soaker tub was not my cup of tea - I didn't find it comfortable with my toes or knees pressed up against the side, and the sit-down shower took some getting used to. But that is really personal preference and others may enjoy it. It might be difficult for those with mobility challenges to get/out of. The bed was comfortable. There was an easy-to-operate gas fireplace, which added a nice ambiance to the suite, especially when the rain rolled in! The B&B is easy to find, has parking on site, and is a short drive to the restaurants and attractions in Tofino, or plenty of other beaches or hiking trails to explore. The host, Todd, was friendly, greeting us on arrival, and quick to respond to any e-mails or inquiries. We felt comfortable with all COVID-19 protocols in place. Give yourself plenty of time to get here as there is roadwork going on on the only highway to this section of the coast. We thought we had timed our arrival to the road closure appropriately, only to find there were added delays due to a blasting mishap which closed the road for an additional 3 hours. There is no cell-service at the road closure site, so we were unable to update Todd on our arrival delay, however he was keeping track of this and was there to meet us when we finally did arrive. We were also entranced by the many hummingbirds that visited the feeder right outside our window! We heartily recommend Chesterman Beach B&B!

Chesterman Beach Bed and Breakfast is a treasure. It is a few steps from the amazing Chesterman Beach. You don’t need a car if you stay here. Stock up on groceries, settle in then let your mind and body rejuvenate. I was a woman travelling on my own. I felt safe, looked after and fortunate in my beautiful Lookout Suite. An intimate, cosy experience. So much more personal than the Wick where I have stayed in the past. Lynda and Todd go the extra mile for their guests. A cherished experience. And then there were the incredible sunsets….

Online booking does not support send by form. Telephone, to be told to book online, the host is on the road. Email as directed, then 3 d. later to be told it went to junk mail, and another request to send in CC particulars by email to a non-secure site ! Told once more by email, owner is away. Waited the wkd for owners to return and address my concerns on the phone, only to be told the booking I had made by email was no longer valid because I hadn't responded in time with credit card info. No apologies, only a self righteous, cold, repetitious response. Dreadful people.

Stayed in the two-bedroom Ocean Breeze apartment. Everything about it was perfection! Never wanted to leave, even the shower was perfect pressure! Beds are so comfy, kitchen fully equipped, sitting on the deck watching the surfers with a cold beverage in hand was epic. Can't wait to return!

We are so thankful we booked this suite. The view is absolutely incredible, just steps away from the beach and stellar sunset views over the ocean. The room itself is cozy and very comfortable with a fantastic balcony. We stayed 4 nights and wished it had been more. Todd was a fantastic host and made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay, he even treated us with a bottle of champagne to celebrate our honeymoon. Todd was super helpful and answered all of our questions and gave us some great must do recommendations while in Tofino. We definitely recommend staying here to anyone looking for a private and relaxing place to stay on the beach!

My wife and I stayed in the Ocean Breeze suite at the Chesterman Beach B&B in late February 2021 and we would have to rate it as one of the top 10 places we have ever stayed anywhere in the world. The suite was absolutely outstanding and the location is beyond amazing and without equal. From the warmth and comfort of the sun room to the heated floors in the bathroom to the comfort and view of the living area to the magnificent attention to detail in the decorating, the Chesterman Beach B&B is THE place to stay in the Tofino area. The suite was spotless and Lynda and Todd's careful attention to COVID protocols was very much appreciated, If you are looking for a beautiful and stunning place to stay in Tofino, make sure you book the Chesterman Beach B&B.

Retreat. Armies do it, rock stars do it, gurus do it, so, why couldn’t we do it? Suffering the damndemic blues, wanting to recharge, my partner and I needed a retreat. Keeping our COVID travel parameters tight - no foreign locales or big cities - we limited our choices to home turf on Vancouver Island, where travel choices are still in abundance during the pandemic. So, we booked time at Chesterman Beach Bed and Breakfast in search of comfort and calm. What a retreat! Superb hosts, spotless West coast rugged-chic accommodation, Boho-zen quietude, stunning views and if you want to enjoy the “Tasty waves with a cool buzz,” surf scene, it’s just 40 steps from your bedroom door. Awesome, Dude!

We try to book the Chesterman Beach B&B whenever we visit Torino. The Lookout suite looks out over the beach and is secluded. We sit outside on the porch whenever possible. The view is serene and timeless. This time we experienced the B&B during the Covid pandemic. What stood out was the careful and conscientious manner which Tod and Linda use in managing their business. The room was spotless upon arrival. The kitchen area thoroughly clean. Separation protocols were meticulously applied. Upon departure we were happy to separate out linens and towels in separate bags to keep the house cleaners safe. The suite clearly showed the careful thought and planning of the owners. Everything we could have asked for was provided, even milk for morning coffee. Cannot recommend this B&B enought.

I’m hesitant to write this for fear it will get too popular. Stayed in the cottage at back off beach and absolutely fabulous! Beautiful private garden and lovely deck that got late afternoon sun perfect for cocktails and dinner. Cottage had everything and was super clean. Completely private and quiet and a few short steps to beach. Have already booked for another stay and this is now my go-to place in Tofino. Todd is warm and gracious and extremely responsive. Five star all-round!
