Room is clean and adequate, but the cold breakfast leaves something to be desired. After the first two breakfasts from the refrgerator consisting of make-your-own coffee, juice, yougert and breads, the third breakfast consisted of nothing! They seem to have forgotten about us. There was no maid service in the rooms. By comparison to other B&Bs (one just down the... More

We stayed here for a couple of nights. The suite itself is quite cozy, well furnished and well equipped (microwave, stoves, utensils, etc). The hosts are quite nice - happy to chat up and provide travel advice. The breakfast provided is cold (breads, yogurt, juice) but sufficient. the location is slightly away from main town but convenient nevertheless. Overall, the... More

It is not actually a real B&B, but you are provided with the necessary to prepare breakfast by your self. I think it is one of the best solution in Tofino: you can use the kitchenette to prepare your own meal (and of course save money). Very clean and location is great. Price comparated to other accomodation in tofino is... More

Although this style of accommodation suited us, I can understand how some people feel a bit miffed at this accommodation being described as B & B, where you might imagine a comfy room with a hot breakfast being served to you. This accommodation is not like that and was really a little self-contained apartment on the ground floor of the... More

For $120 we had very poor accommodations. The owner (wife) brought is into the room and began telling us about the activities in Tofino, then showed us the bagels, apricots and eggs that she stored in the refrigerator for us to make ourselves in the morning. She wrapped two days worth of breakfast on a plate covered with seran wrap.... More

What a lovely time we had- enjoyed the distant harbour and Meares Island views. Very well appointed for the price and the hostess was so gracious and thoughtful.

Sand Dollar is well equipped and very clean. Though is is quite compact there was enough room for the two of us. An easy walk to the village. The owner was very friendly and helpful.

Stayed here for three nights in July (08). The owner was very friendly & helpful - she even picked us up from the bus depot in town when we arrived on the bus from Victoria & dropped us off again for our return journey. As we didn't have a car we wanted somewhere within easy reach of town and were... More

For our 1 yr anniversary we searched high and low for the perfect B&B and after many hours of searching found the Sand Dollar Guest House in Tofino. The place was cheap $65/night during the low season winter-may31. We went for May Long and couldnt be happier with our stay. The bedroom had two double beds that we had to... More
