We loved our 2 night stay at Pacific Sands on Cox Bay. Our one bedroom suite was modern with a natural wood element. Very spacious, ground level with walk out to patio, grassy area with picnic tables and hammocks overlooking the ocean. A few steps to a beautiful beach with plenty of surfers. Meals are available at Surfside Grill on property, outside seating available or take your food to the beach. Absolutely loved our stay on this large property.

It was hands-down one of the best trips I have ever taken. The Suite we had was beautiful, a gorgeous view of the ocean super comfortable bed, super cosy in general and incredible service from the staff at Pacific Sands! A highlight was sitting at the firebowls at night watching the waves with a drink in hand! I highly recommend this place to anyone wondering if it is worth it... 1000% yes! I can’t wait to bring my kiddos up in the Summer time :) Shout out to Pacific Sands Staff who gifted us a delicious bottle of wine and beautiful card for my husband and I on our Anniversary!! Super kind and thoughtful.

We stayed in a 1 bedroom suite which was clean, well appointed and comfortable. The view was lovely too. We ordered takeout from the restaurant as indoor dining was not available yet due to Covid. I would definitely stay there again.

Travelled to Tofino to work with Pacific Sands. Was utterly blown away at the facilities, the location and the staff. Felt welcomed, was assisted with extras often, and truly did not want to leave. 100% would return.

We had the best time here. The beaches and resort are gorgeous. The concierge service is impeccable. Our teens took a surf lesson with the on-site surf club Surf Sisters and had the time of their lives!

Dear Amiemouneimne, Thank you for sharing your recent experience with Pacific Sands. It's always great to hear of a guest having the "best time ever" on our property.
