This is a super cute spot in a great location. It’s walkable to everywhere in town. We especially enjoyed relaxing and taking in the view from the balcony. The bakery is definitely worth it! Communication, instructions, and check-in were all smooth and easy to follow. I highly recommend this spot!

Hassle free and relaxing

Highly recommend Tofino Vacation rentals. From the initial booking to the arrival and departure, Tofino Vacation rentals were in contact with us, via text to insure that everything was perfect. The Studio suite was perfect and in an excellent location to explore Tofino by foot.

Great location with amazing views. Really appreciated the coffee and soap, shampoo, conditioner! Some things to note were that the unit smelled strongly of men's cologne and the jacuzzi tub didnt work. The jets in the tub also looked like they needed to be cleaned. Not easy to get in and out of the shower/tub even without any mobility issues. Other than that it was great.

Amazing Water View

We were able to walk all over Tofino to shops and restaurants. We then came back to all the conveniences of home. I loved sitting and watching the tide gently come in.

Sweet Stay

Nice little place with great views and fabulous location. Amenities were beyond what I expected! The kitchen was stocked with every single item you could ever need! So impressed by that. Large jacuzzi tub was a bonus as was the balcony. The place lacked updating in terms of kitchen cabinets, counter, and furniture. Despite that it was quite clean except for the windows which evidently had been overlooked however there were cleaning items present so it took a little elbow grease and the windows were able to show the great view. I was beyond impressed with the quality of bath/ body products supplied. Was truly a thoughtful and luxurious treat! Would absolutely stay again.

This quaint Studio condo was right downtown. Close to restaurants and shopping. Great views from the balcony where you can watch seals playing or sea planes taking off.

The Sea Shell Studio is a great space and located in the heart of Tofino. Every morning we get to see the ocean and different watercraft. Great experience overall.

We had an amazing time staying here. The condo was ideally located in the heart of Tofino, on a quiet street overlooking the harbour. The view out the spacious windows was breathtaking and it was a short walk to all the amenities (restaurants, grocery store, adventure and surf businesses etc). The hosts (or company) were very welcoming and attentive. We couldn’t have asked for better and would definitely stay here again.

Was a great spot to stay near downtown Tofino within walking distance of restaurants and attractions and a balcony overlooking the harbor. It was fun to watch the float planes during the daytime and the sunset every evening. The host was very responsive to any. Inquiry is that we had.
