The beach is just 20 m from the Villa. The Villa itself was a piece of beauty with a great view over the bay. It was great to watch the surfers and walk along the beach. Perfect place. more

I recently had the opportunity to travel to Tofino with my 16 year old niece and we spent a wonderful couple of days at the Pacific Sands. From the moment we arrived, until the moment we left, everything was just about perfect. The room had a small and well stocked kitchen, the view onto the beach was breathtaking and the... more

We stayed in a Beach Villa (#37). It is a beautiful tri-level, two-bedroom attached villa directly on the beach. Full-height glass windows wrap around the corner of both the living room and master bedroom. The entire villa is designed with a contemporary, natural feel--wood ceilings, slate floors, gas fireplaces in the LR and MB, great furniture. But what you will... more

Room was fab. We stayed for 3 nights but should have stayed longer. Room has great views and we could walk out the 'front door' and almost straight onto the beach. Rooms on the floor above (hotels room only on 2 levels - ground level and one level above) might have had a slightly better view but they only had... more

The location is great, you're right on the beach! Lots of mix of people staying at the resort, families, couples, group of friends. The kitchen in the suite was very small, which was fine for a short stay, but I would bring some of my own cooking supplies next time. The stuff provided was rather old and scratched up. The... more

The Pacific Sands Resort was our favorite location of the 6 stops on our trip to BC and Seattle. While not the most luxurious Resort of the trip (This goes to Beach Club Resort in Parksville – see our review), for enjoying the scenery this was the winner. We had a 1 bedroom ocean view suite. The interior was very... more

Checked in for 5 days into Villa 37. I wondered what the view would be from Villas further away from the center of the property (20s is closer to the center of the property. The higher the number the further away from the center). There is a piece of land that sticks out and blocks the view to some extent... more

Reserving a place to stay far away from home is always a gamble. However, I realized that this resort was special even before we arrived. A day earlier, our waiter at a nice Vancouver restaurant became excited when we told him that we were heading for the Pacific Sands. He told us of his many surfing and storm watching trips... more

We had 3 nights in an one bedroom beachfront suite on the first floor with a balcony. Check in was friendly, quick and easy and a map provided to help find our room in what turned out to be quite a large complex, though it turned out we we just across from reception. There were lovely views of the surf... more
