Tofino Waterfront Eco Condo

Check out our direct website www.bluecrushconcierge.ca for booking + avoiding 3rd party fees. We proudly donate 2% from direct website bookings to local non profit's in Tofino.
~

Tofino's environmentally friendly accommodation, as well as supporting local First Nations, by proudly donating 2% to the local Tla-o-qui-aht Nation's Tribal Parks Allies program. Newly renovated with all natural materials, water based paint & finishes. Next to the downtown core, stunning waterfront view, steps to all amenities, shopping & restaurants. This bright bachelor unit is a great home base to rest and re-charge after exploring the waters, forests or shops.

Tofino Eco Condo has been designed with a small environmental footprint in mind. At 500 square feet, it's a spacious bachelor suite with full kitchen, bath, living and dining area. Where possible, items have been thrifted or found second hand so as to deter from first hand purchasing. Linens are new, recycled microfibre. The propane fireplace has been capped off so we're not promoting fossil fuels. Coffee is purchased from Tofino Coffee, a local roaster. The hand and dish soap is locally made by Tamara at the Hobbyist.

The large screen TV has Telus cable but no Netflix app; bring your HDMI cord to set up!

The bed is a new, Canadian made Endy mattress to ensure optimal comfort on your getaway.

ACCESS
Guest access is by keypad entry, with access to entire apartment. The condo building is right on Tofino's harbour. There are two entrances. The ground floor entrance has a wheelchair friendly ramp and if coming from the upper parking lot, there is a set of stairs.

A cozy balcony with two locally made salvaged cedar Adirondack chairs is available for morning coffee's or late evening drinks & sunsets. The couch pulls out to a queen bed for additional sleeping options.

There is a card operated Laundry Room located on the second floor.

There is one designated parking spot for the condo.

There is direct waterfront access access to a kayak launch, picnic area and local dock from the building.

LOCATION
The Fred Tibbs Waterfront Condo is located in the heart of Tofino looking over First Street Dock, where guests have access to a Kayak launch, picnic area and dock. This allows you to stay parked and stroll through the downtown core of Tofino car free. This amazing property features beautiful views of the ocean inlet harbour and surrounding mountain range. At the base of the complex is a great little shop called Savary Island Pies which is convenient for morning coffees and snacks.

INTERACTION
The condo is self check in and set up for your independent stay. If you have any questions, Blue Crush is available during business hours.

DIRECTIONS
From Vancouver, the first chapter of your drive is to Horseshoe Bay Ferry Terminal. Enjoy the vista views of the ocean before taking the 1.5 hour ferry trip over to Departure Bay Terminal in Nanaimo.

From the sea side city of Nanaimo, take the quick Inland Highway or scenic Old Island highway, along the coast and its small towns, to the turn off for Port Alberni. Drive through Coombs (Goats on a Roof) and Cathedral Forest Provincial Park. Port Alberni resides at the end of a western fjord with many tourist attractions. This is a great location to pick up gas and groceries.

The last chapter of your drive to Tofino will take you on a scenic winding road past Sproat Lake, and Mackenzie lake. Take a right once you get to the Junction for Ucluelet and Tofino, and tune in to Tofino's local radio station. This winding road takes you through Long Beach Provincial park, into the heart of Tofino.

Eco Initiatives: Warren has purposefully made a few design + staging choices. Compost, biodegradable garbage liners, eclectic mix of second hand dishware. We hope this adds to your stay!

Pet friendly: 1 small dog (30 pounds or less) is allowed with approval and a $50 cleaning fee. Pet policy does apply and will be further explained in the rental agreement.

Cancellation: 100% refund less $50 cancellation fee if cancelled more than 30 days before arrival. Non refundable if cancelled within 30 days of check-in.

An Amazing Get-a-Way!
We loved everything about this Waterfront condo. Erika was a very conscientious host and the accommodations were everything we needed and more! We enjoyed sitting on the deck and watching the boats and sea planes come and go. Also we loved the proximity to the shops and restaurants in Tofino which were only a few minutes stroll away. We totally enjoyed our stay and will recommend this vacation spot to our friends and family.

Gorgeous Sunset Views!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this cozy little eco-condo! The highlight was drinking our wine on the patio as we watched the sunset over the harbour with a seal swimming by. Our girls loved playing on the patio with the ocean views, and we all slept comfortably -- infant in her travel crib, toddler on the trundle bed, and us in the queen size. The details were very thoughtful. Local soaps and shampoos smelled amazing, high quality coffee and cooking oils provided. Linen robes provided for lounging. Beach towels in the drawers. Puzzles and books for entertainment. Clear communication about check-in and expectations. Felt very welcoming. Only thing to note: for sleeping adults the couch wouldn't be overly comfortable, but we feel it is perfect for a family with kids sleeping there. The bed itself was very comfortable. Thank you so much for a memorable stay! We really hope to be back soon!

Cozy rental in wonderful location
We stayed three nights in this amazing location - neighbouring the pie shop (which also has great coffee!). Overlooking the ocean, you can watch the harbour boat and kayak traffic as well as spot eagles and otters. The space is clean and comfortable - we will be back!

This tidy condo has a lovely view of the Tofino harbour and is close to downtown. We commend the host for her timely and helpful communications and her commitment to recycling and composting. One comment we have is that the bed is somewhat uncomfortable and the pillows are quite hard.

I like this place because it is self contained with a full kitchen, has a water view of the inner harbour and is close to everything in Tofino yet quiet. My car was parked for 4 days as I used my rental bike to get to my favourite walking places. I'll be back.

Property was fine but certainly didn't need all the literature about anti- salmon farming, anti- forestry and antibusiness. If the owner can afford a vacation rental, more than a little hypocritical.
