Black Bear Guesthouse

My wife and I enjoyed 5 days in beautiful Tofino. Our stay was enhanced with the wonderful accommodations we had booked at the Black Bear Guesthouse. It is situated in a quiet neighbourhood 5 minutes from town and has a great view of the Inlet waters, and yes, we saw a black bear grazing every evening far across the Bay. The one bedroom west coast style suite is beautifully furnished, has a fully equipped plus kitchen and dining area. Fireplace, big screen TV, BBQ, hot tub, excellent shower, all one needs to enjoy a stay in this special area of our country. Our host Bobbi greeted us with a warm welcome and provided excellent information on restaurants, tours, etc. Her pleasant demeanor reflects the whole Tofino experience; relax, enjoy, kick back lifestyle, peaceful. A must do is the 5 minute walk from the Guesthouse to the spectacular Chesterman Beach. Casually stroll along the hard packed sand as the Pacific surf rolls in. Enjoy the competition of a surfer trying to conquer and ride a wave or two. BTW, you’ll want to return in the evening to experience the brilliant colours of the sky as the sun sets over the Pacific Ocean. One last note, if you enjoy cycling, take a ride or two on the hard packed sand of Chesterman beach. Make your choice, rent a bike, or save $45 and borrow one of Bobbi’s cruisers for a memorable ride along the Pacific coastline!

Stayed in Cedar Suite, very clean, compact double bedroom with a very comfortable bed. Super friendly hosts, fantastic deck looking across the inlet, very peaceful. Close to beach and a short cycle into Tofino, bikes provided. Would recommend and would stay again.

4 of us enjoyed this place immensely. Beautiful surroundings, quality furnishings and equipment in suite. Host very accessible but not intrusive. Quiet. Clean. Sunny and Bright with excellent blinds. For regular people, it seemed like a real luxury. Highly recommend.
