We stayed in a lodge room in April for 5 nights. Loved the ocean view and balcony to sit out on. The room was well appointed with a fireplace and a small kitchen. The kitchen was good to have so we could cook some seafood. In the lobby they have some frozen dishes and soups. We tried the lasagna and... More

We stayed at the Pacific Sands Beach Resort May 27-29th and had a fantastic time! We would definitely return again in a heartbeat. We had originally planned to only stay one night but as soon as we entered our room, both my husband and I had the same thought "we want to stay longer". Jasmin, at the front desk, went... More

For location and value ($180 a night for 3 seniors in month of May, before taxes) the Lighthouse Suite we stayed in for 3 nights was perfect for us. This was our third stay in a period of one year and we plan to return many more times. For dietary restrictions we need a full kitchen and every unit at... More

We have just had the most amazing 3 days at The Pacific Sands in Tofino ... our second stay. We would thoroughly recommend it to any one ... especially families. Will most certainly stay there again. The condos are perfect for groups such as book club getaways.

We chose this location for our 20th anniversary. This suite is perfect for couples. There is no one above you. The suite is cozy but not cramped. We had a fantastic large balcony facing the ocean with private hot tub (there is a viewing window to the ocean from the hot tub). If you don’t like hot tubs, there is... More

This was the perfect place to get away and simply be. The resort is breathtaking. We were fortunate to be in a second floor room that was the closest to the beach so we had unobstructed views of that incredible landscape and the incessantly rolling waves. Staff were incredibly attentive as needed and responsive to every need. A great place... More

We have just enjoyed a lovely, relaxing stay at this beautiful resort. We stayed in a two-bed Beach House with our 11 month old baby. We were provided with a baby bed and a high-chair and the kitchen is really well equipped. The living room and main bedroom are beautiful rooms with fantastic views. The bed was one of the... More

...as you approach the Pacific Ocean, in awe of Long Beach and the surf, turn left into Pacific Sands drive and it hits you- you are away. Nature takes over, the grand evergreens, the mist from the sea, and the sounds of the surf lull you into total relax mode. The staff are friendly, accomodating and efficient, the villas ,... More
