A fantastic home away from home storm watching getaway
Coastal Haven has all the ammenities one needs for a wonderful storm watching and winter surf experience. Inside and outside the house invites you into a feeling of home, a kitchen to cook up wonderful meals, a tranquil garden to enjoy the hot tub after a surf session, and lots of space to share with a family or friends get away. We have stayed at Coastal Haven previously and would choose this property again given its close proximity to North Chesterman beach.
Excellent home, love the hot tub, fire pit and library. The management company was responsive when one bathroom was missing a shower curtain, the toilet clogged and the tea kettle was rusted. I took away a star for those issues, but they were quickly resolved.

Thank you for staying with us, and for the great communication throughout your visit. I’m so sorry again about the curtain — we took it down to give it a wash and forgot to hang it back up. My apologies for the oversight.
Wishing you a wonderful 2026!
Our family enjoyed our time at Coastal Haven. The house was spacious and comfortable. The location and communication with host team was great!

Beautiful accommodation in a great location!
Coastal Haven is a beautiful and spacious accommodation in Tofino! The furnishings are gorgeous and the hot tub was a huge hit. Tofino VR was great checking in to make sure we had everything we needed - thanks for a great stay!
Our third stay at this special home located steps from the beach. The main floor bedroom with ensuite and reading room is perfect for elderly parents. The large kitchen table for sit down meals and scrabble games brought us together. With a hot tub in the good sized back yard and an upstairs master suite we all enjoyed some quiet time too.

Wonderful!
This property is our favourite of all the places we have stayed in Tofino. The feel is very spacious but homey with a well appointed kitchen.
Special highlights are the library/ piano room, the gorgeous garden and hot tub and the outdoor shower.😊
This home would be special in all seasons and we will be looking to book this again the next time we are in Tofino.
A lovely property well situated for walking and exploring. A good space for a family group and the daily hot tub was particularly enjoyable.
