Lovely stay in hideaway house close to beach
We loved this house with its rainforest garden. Beatiful, clean, well equipped with an extra bonus for the kitchen. Nice outdoor deck with a lovely jaccuzzi. We would gladely return often if it was closer to Stockholm, Sweden. :-)

Chesterman life, gorgeous and comfortable
Great location, just two blocks to the beach and a quick 5 minute walk to Tacofino, coffee and more. We stayed here for 5 days in early August and loved it. Plus, the coffee situation is amazing!! We will be back!

Great North Chesterman Beach location
In keeping with general Tofino ambiance, external siding is weathered but inside is lovely and updated. Property is well-treed with interesting nooks and seating areas, though some external seating cushion-free and uncomfortable. Location fantastic - easy 3 min stroll to beach and 10 min walk to coffee, groceries, ice cream, tacos, burgers and bikes. Tofino is 5-10 minutes away by car. **Also Check DriveBC to get highway 4 status info - highway delays in our trips were 2-3 hours.* I found Communication with rental agent to be curt and slow, which is why I ranked that aspect low. As just one example, access instructions didn’t appear on my VRBO app even in day before checkin. So I sent email via VRBO app asking for access instructions 24 hours before check-in and still had not heard back the next day, 10 minutes before check-in! I had to call and agent did text access code immediately. Agent blamed issue on VRBO and then subsequently noted that access info was buried in a confirmation e-mail (outside VRBO app) sent 4 months prior - apparently my fault for not noticing

Short family trip
The Dunes was great for our family. For the price, some amenities like beach chairs and updated deck furnishing would have been good. The location was not as close to the beach as we expected, but was a short walk down the road. The house was clean and comfortable. We loved the hot tub and the deck. We would definitely stay here again.

4th year in a row
It was the 4th year we have stayed at this property and loved every minute. The property managers are super responsive, the place is immaculate and you can't beat the location (bonuses are the backyard and hidden loft for young kids!)
