About this property

Tofino Hummingbird Cottage: Across from Chesterman Beach -"Serenity by the Sea"





  • House: (4 Guests, 3 Bedrooms, 2 Baths-Across from Chesterman Beach)



    A minute's stroll from the sandy, wild expanse of north Chesterman Beach, discover one of Tofino's most unique, intentionally created cottages. Experience the serenity of the sea, sleep deeply to the rhythm of the tides, soothe away stress and rediscover yourself. Custom-designed by spa and wellness expert Vivienne O'Keeffe and ideal for self-directed retreats and restful escapes. The cottage is thoroughly cleaned and sanitized for each incoming guest.



    The cottage lays serenely in a coastal marine landscape. Surrounded by cedar trees, visitors can relax on any of the three decks. The grounds of the cottage are ideal for meditation, listening to the distant thunder of the waves, the whisper of wind through the cedars and the joyful sound of birds.



    Tofino Hummingbird Cottage is designed to tap into Tofino's unique healing energy. The 1,450 sq.ft. interior features the soothing palette of nature, works by Island artists and beautiful floors of recycled vinyl and sustainable cork, known for its warmth and ability to soften sound.



    The living room features a cozy Norweigian JØTUL gas fireplace, sectional sofa and chairs custom-designed for style and comfort. In the kitchen, enjoy preparing and cooking your food on countertops of quartz Caesarstone and a gas stove with a true convection oven. Tofino's local shops allow plentiful access to fresh seafood, organic vegetables and artisanal foods.

Bright, Lovely, and Perfectly Maintained

The owner puts a lot of care into this property. The grounds are well taken care of. The inside is immaculately clean, bright, and well stocked with all the comforts of home. It is a very short walk to the beach, or to the Wickaninnish if you crave a fancy dinner or cocktail. Defiantly, a property worth staying at if you are looking for something on Chesterman Beach.

Hummingbird Cottage is a very clean, well appointed home that had plenty of space for our party of four adults. Although we didn't cook any meals, the kitchen has everything you would need to prepare your meals. The home is located across from Chesterman Beach, with the beach access conveniently located only a few feet away.The neighbourhood was relatively quiet during our stay, though we could see it being more noisy and busy during peak season. The host Vivienne was good to deal with, from the booking stage to check out time. We enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to recommend this place.

Outstanding Home on Chesterman Beach

This beautiful home was absolutely lovely and comfortable. It is a two minute walk ti the beach. If you like to cook this kitchen is well equipped with high quality appliances and kitchen tools. This appealed to the foodies in the group who don't like to eat out every might. The house is tastefully decorated with west coast elements. The beds are comfortable and the linens and towels are fine quality. Vivienne is a lovely and attentive host. We loved staying here.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Vivienne was a great host. The Hummingbird was a very quick stroll to the beach… great for surfing, watching the sunset and long walks. The kitchen was very well stocked and the beds super comfy. Outdoor shower was a bonus after a day surfing. Entire home was filled with thoughtful details and was very clean. Thank you Vivienne!
