Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Staff & service
PRO: Great view, short walk to town, modern decor, good bed, good shower. CONS: No facilities or services, small deep gravel parking lot, long breezeway catwalks and outside staircases, small rooms, sticky doors, no desk or table, no microwave, no space around bath sink for toileteries, paper thin walls and ceilings, no A/C but next to sea, so not really needed, barrels for night tables, designed for looks rather than practicality. Beware of swag lamps next to bed. Not for seniors or persons with mobility issues. More for the younger back packing crowd. Too rustic for our taste. Would never stay there again.

Beautiful property with beautiful views. Walking distance to everything in town. Unfortunately the power went out the morning we were leaving as a bird flew into the power pole so no shower in the morning but that is not the properties fault.

Overall, a great experience. Not having electricity the first night (11:30pm-5:30am), though, was challenging for my elderly parent who relies on a CPAP machine for sleep. Nothing was offered for the inconvenience, which was disappointing. A discounted night would have been appreciated.

Amazing view

The room i stayed in had the best view of the water i have ever seen. I left the curtains open to enjoy every minute of it, even as i went to bed. It was clean and comfortable. I wish it had a microwave, but not everyone is vegan like me.

My first stay at the Duffin Cove Oceanfront Lodging. The staff was great. The lodge does not have 24hr service like a hotel but Tofino is a place to be out and about. I was staying in room 106 facing the ocean which was outstanding during the day and at sunset. Looks like all the room face the ocean.

Not all the rooms face the ocean. Block 3 does but we we in block 2 which faces trees. So the descriptions in my opinion are a bit misleading . I think the "million dollar view from every room" is what you need to get block 3. Maybe the hotel could add "hundred dollar view" to the description for block 2 for folk like me not expert in the fine details. The price is about the same for both block 2 and 3.
