A lovely, quiet, scenic location that's a 15 minute walk to Chesterman Beach. Well equipped and exactly as expected - we'll be back! Danielle and the Tofino Vacation Rentals team were very helpful - thank you!
Beautiful property, private. Best of both worlds with an easy walk to the ocean beach side and lovely views out of your own backyard. Very attentive and friendly and quick to respond to any queries. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
The house we stayed in was great. It had a fantastic view of the bay with an incredible changing tide. The property was very quiet, secluded and private.
I would highly recommend this location for anyone looking for a getaway to Tofino.
We enjoyed the lovely living space and surroundings. It was quiet and relaxing and the local area also provided many activities for those that wanted to pursue them (biking, surfing etc.) We would certainly enjoy coming to stay again in the future.

Beautiful home and view🥰
Arriving at Jensen’s Bay Retreat was a wonderful surprise. It was so tastefully decorated with everything we could imagine. We enjoyed relaxing on the deck and looking at the magnificent view of the ocean and mountains. The hot tub and evening camp fires were extra special, too. We would definitely recommend this property.
Highly recommend this gorgeous home for a group stay in Tofino. Well appointed home with beautiful inlet view in a quiet area but close to town. We particularly enjoyed the heated floors throughout, the fireplace, and hot tub. Well managed property. We hope to stay here again sometime!
The property was clean, well furnished, with a well-stocked kitchen and many other thoughtful touches. We enjoyed this property for a birthday trip. The location is great a short walk from Chesterman beach. Would highly recommend.
The setting of this property couldn’t be more beautiful. It has quite a calm Zen feel to it. with the full-size kitchen it was easy to cook. We spent a lot of time just relaxing on the deck looking at the view. Just a 10 minute walk to Chesterman Beach.
The house was amazing, the photos do not show how large it actually is. The kitchen was well equipped (we did a lot of cooking) and we found everything we needed. The beds and bedding were very comfortable and we all loved all the soap products. We walked to South Chesterman (with kiddos) and it was a short drive to the other beaches. The hot tub was lovely! A wonderful stay!
This property exceeded our expectations. It felt like home, had a well-stocked kitchen, and the view of Jensen Bay was absolutely stunning. Our entire experience was perfect! Thank you for sharing this little piece of heaven on earth with us!
We had the most amazing time at Jensens Bay Retreat! What a wonderful house in a spectacular location. The layout of the house is perfect for groups, with 2 wings and 3 bathrooms, with lovely products in the bathrooms. The lounge and dining area have lots of room, perfect for friends and family to congregate and enjoy a very happy time together! Huge thanks!
Super cozy house. Great for families. Walking distance to restaurants, food trucks and beaches. We walked to Cox Bay Beach and to the local market where Tacofino is located. Unfortunately no way to charge an electric car on site.
Definitely five stars! Hot tub was clean, beds are comfortable, and everything you’d need in the kitchen was there. The views of the bay are lovely. Note there are thick hedges between the backyard and water so it’s not really water access. But the views are lovely. Recommended!
Wow! Stayed here a couple days after new years. What an amazing view. Very close walk to Chesterman beach which is a to do. We saw pretty much every beach in and around Tofino and Ucluelet. All very unique and different beaches. We brought our own food and what an amazing kitchen to cook in! You will not be disappointed! Thank you TVR!!!!

Privacy with incredible views
Jensen’s Bay retreat was in a great location, just off the highway, with incredible views of the inlet and mountains. The home was very private, with plenty of space for 3 adults and 3 teenagers. Having three bedroom and three bathrooms was perfect. The kitchen was very well stocked, and the covered outdoor hot tub was essential for the drizzly evenings. And it was also just a short walk to Chesterman Beach. TVR staff were quick and helpful in responding to any questions we had. The house was clean - we would recommended it and stay there again!
From the moment you step into the house you are welcomed by a wide open space and gorgeous views of Jensen Bay. We had lots of room to hangout and eat meals. The rooms felt very private and all had a stunning view of the bay. It was a joy to eake up to every morning. We loved our time here and are already planning to come back. Had everything we needed for our friends weekend. In a great spot close to restaurants, chesterman beach and town.
The view and inside of home are so much more beautiful than the pictures can show! The layout of the home was enjoyable, with kitchen and great room and huge dining table to hold all of us to eat, and play games together - all with a stunning view of the bay and mountains. The only downside was that there were a few hiccups with amenities while we were there (two caused by a power outage that happened moments after our arrival). The manager did her best to take care of issues promptly, and also gave us a discount on our stay, which was very fair.
All and all a totally wonderful stay, and we would stay again.
This was the perfect spot for our family vacation of three adult couples. Each had their own room and bath and the great room with kitchen + living room was great for gathering. Kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans for most anything you'd need. Spent most of our time on the deck, even during a rainy day, since enough is covered. It was easy to foreget we even had neighbors since you can't really see any other houses and the water/mountain view is amazing. The multi-use trail is right there and easy ride to the beach and other spots. Or just a quick drive to town or hiking trails or beaches. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a quiet getaway, but still close to so many different activities.

A Great Spot
We really enjoyed ourselves. The place was spotlessly clean and supplied with everything. The views to the lagoon featured from every room. Hot Tub was hot and steamy. Fire pit was a great addition (we brought our own wood). A quick 10 minute walk to Chesterman for beach walks and surfing. Thanks again
