Pacific Sands Beach Resort

One of the best hotels in Tofino, this award-winning resort offers spectacular views of the rugged wilds of Vancouver Island’s Pacific coast.

Located on the beachfront of Cox Bay, Pacific Sands Beach Resort blends West Coast hospitality with unforgettable adventures in breathtaking seclusion.

A 10-minute drive from the charming surf town of Tofino, the resort has one and two-bedroom suites and luxury beach houses with ocean or beachfront views among Sitka spruce and Western Red Cedar trees. Inside, you’ll find spacious accommodation and décor of redwood sequoia and glowing cedar wood, with fully-equipped kitchens, fireplaces and private decks with hammocks. Some suites also have hot tubs and barbecues.

Enjoy the wood-fired barrel-saunas, watch mesmerising sunsets over the Pacific and indulge in s’mores by the campfire. There’s a grill specialising in freshly-caught seafood as well as an informal café, and the resort offers bike rentals, surf lessons, massages and complimentary beach yoga in summer.

The resort’s 41 pristine acres are adjacent to stunning Pacific Rim National Park. Aside from world-class surfing and hiking, spring whale-watching tours are a highlight when 20,000 Gray whales migrate past these shores, or take a kayaking tour along the coast to see black bears.
