The Horizon Suite - Oceanfront Luxury on the Sunshine Coast of BC

Outdoor living is effortless with a natural gas firepit, Broil-King barbecue with a searing grill, and two infrared patio heaters for year-round enjoyment.

Suite Setup:
The Horizon Suite occupies the entire upper level of the home. It is a completely private, self-contained suite with its own entrance and is securely locked off from the lower level. Guests have full and exclusive access to the top floor, all outdoor spaces, and amenities.

There is a long-term renter in the separate lower suite, as required under District of Sechelt bylaws and Provincial Short-Term Rental regulations. The tenant serves as the local operator and does not share any guest areas.

Set at the end of a private 200-foot driveway with 100 feet of south-facing waterfront, the Horizon Suite is one of the Sunshine Coast’s rare oceanfront properties with no highway noise—just peace, nature, and ocean air.

Watch sea otters, seals, bald eagles, and even the occasional orca from the enormous glass-front deck or stroll down to your own rocky Pacific Northwest beach to launch a kayak or paddleboard. As evening falls, gather by the firepit and take in a breathtaking Sunshine Coast sunset.

Outdoor adventures are endless: hiking, cycling, kayaking, paddleboarding, swimming, and snowshoeing or cross-country skiing at Dakota Ridge, just 45 minutes away. Town is an easy 5-minute drive for restaurants, shops, and essentials.

We supply bathroom towels, linens, kitchen linens, cleaning supplies, paper towels, garbage bags, toilet paper, shampoo, hand soap, iron, ironing board, laundry soap & blow dryers.

About the host

Hosted by Craig and Tracey

Host profile image
We are professionals from Vancouver with 2 young adult children who love the outdoors and to vacation! We have been owning and operating vacation properties in the US and Canada since 2011. We simply love making sure that our guests thoroughly enjoy their vacations at our homes. Most of our guests are extended families with children who love to get together for a special vacation. We understand the importance of creating a warm and comfortable environment for making great family memories and that's what we try to do. Our guests return year after year as they love the amenities and service that we provide. We have over 500 5-Star reviews for our properties because we care a great deal about ensuring that our guests are well taken care of. We have a wonderful team of staff who respond to all of our guests' needs promptly and courteously. We have exceptionally high standards when we travel and we like to provide our guests with what we expect.

Why they chose this property

We searched for months to find the perfect oceanfront home on the Sunshine Coast and we found it in the Driftwood Beach House. It was exactly what we wanted: magnificent views of the ocean and islands of the West Coast on a peaceful, secluded beach where we can launch a paddle board or kayak right there! Most importantly, there is no highway noise at this house - that's rare on the Sunshine Coast! We knew the moment we stepped into the Driftwood Oceanfront Beach House that it was the one!

What makes this property unique

The Driftwood Oceanfront Beach House is located a 5-minute drive to the west of Sechelt, BC right on a beautiful, private beach. Unlike many homes in Sechelt, ours has zero traffic noise as it's not located on the busy Sunshine Coast Highway as most of the ocean-front homes are. It's a gorgeous 35-minute ferry ride away from the Mainland through the Georgia Straight; you'll love the breath-taking mountain, island, inlet and water views on the ferry over. The ferries run at least 8 times/day. You can also take a float plane from the Vancouver Harbour to the Sechelt Inlet - it's a spectacular flight, particularly on a sunny day! Sechelt also has an airport with direct flights from Vancouver and Victoria.
