"This place was nothing short of AMAZING!!! Billy was there to great us, gave us some history of Tofino (he’s a life long local) shared some favourite places of his to eat, all around this guy has an incredible energy!!! If you are looking for a tranquil spot that easily accessible to local beaches by foot, bike or car it is truly an outstanding location. The pictures really don’t capture the true essence of this incredible property. Our only regret is that we didn’t book the property for a longer stay. Thank you Billy for being a host extraordinaire!"
