“…enjoyed the yoga deck and some quiet time“
We had a lovely stay in your piece of paradise. Tofino was wonderful! We went to the hot springs, kayaked, biked the beach and ate and drank at Tacofino, the Mac and the distillery. We appreciated the well appointed kitchen and had some lovely meals right here. I enjoyed the yoga deck and enjoyed some quiet time on the deck reading the photo book. Truly enjoyed “the journey” and let the peacefulness seep into my “marrow”.

Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful cottage. Our stay was perfect in every way, from fantastic meals (SoBo, Wolf in the Fog, Shelter and Jeju – some of our favourites) to walks and excursions. We were incredibly fortunate to see some breathtaking wildlife including black bears, whales, sea lions, seals and much more. It really has been an INCREDIBLE few days in paradise.

Thank you for letting us stay at your wonderful place. Our party of six enjoyed our time and we slept very well. The house is beautiful and we had a comfortable stay.

“Proximity to Chesterman beach, and on-demand hot water.”
Tofino Hummingbird Cottage has been a wonderful place for us old friends to play, eat and celebrate birthdays. We love how light and bright the cottage is. Never had such a well appointed kitchen – with maple syrup! And rubber gloves! The proximity to Chesterman Beach is ideal. he on-demand hot water served three showers at once after we returned from boogie boarding. When we needed heat the fireplace warmed the living room effectively. The care that has been taken to provide good quality furnishings, crockery, etc. creates an extremely comfortable ambience.

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay at Tofino Hummingbird Cottage. It was a very special vacation for our family – it was the first time we’d seen eachother in two years. And what a peaceful and relaxing setting to do it in. The cottage is beautiful, immaculate, yet cozy, and so well equipped.

Thank you so much for one of our best stays ever in Tofino. Your tranquil, beautiful and charming cabin made for the most incredible memories filled with lots of love, laughter and relaxation.

We loved it here and can’t wait to come back. Thanks for everything.

” …this was the reatreat I needed. There’s just something special about it”
I stayed at Tofino Hummingbird Cottage this summer and the entire experience was four days of bliss. Vivienne has looked after everything to help her guests relax, from the silk organic sheets to the comfy, stylish furnishings to the sotting quality of the lighting in the cottage. The cottage is simply gorgeous and feel so serene and comforting. I loved waking up to the sounds of birds in the morning and strolling with my coffee just across the read to that incredible expanse of Chesterman Beach. So beautiful! The cottae kitchen was a dream, and we would have been tempted to stay in and cook each night, but we did visit a few wonderful local restaurants, including Wolf in the Fog, just a short drive away. When I come back to Tofino (and I definitely will!) I will thank my lucky stars if Tofino Hummingbird Cottage is available because this was the retreat I needed. There’s just something special about it.

“…nicest home away from home – to unwind from the busyness of life.”
This was just what we needed, the perfect place to get away as a group of friends. The Tofino Hummingbird Cottage is beautifully designed and is the nicest home away from home spot. Thank you for creating a space where people can come and enjoy the simple things like making meals together and playing games into the night. The space is inviting and warm to unwind from the business of life.

” icing on the cake. What a hidden gem!”
Tofino is always awesome but The Hummingbird Cottage was the icing on the cake. What a hidden gem! Amazing location and thoughtful design to make the perfect getaway for those seeking “Serenity by the Sea”. It was the perfect place to spend time with our family for a much needed getaway from the busyness of our lives especially this summer. We appreciate you opening up your home to others to share… surfing, great meals, beach fires, long walks, biking, laughs… and a ton of memories!

” …freaking awesome. Sunsets over cocktails.”
We had the best time! The Tofino Hummingbird Cottage has been an absolute treat! This space is relaxing, cozy, and so freaking awesome. Our nightly jaunt to Chesterman, to watch sunsets over cocktails. And that fireplace (heart, heart, heart). We had many nights (and mornings) warming up together by the fire. We hope we can make Tofino and the Hummingbird an annual occurrence. We loved every minute – especially being able to cook in such a beauty kitchen! Thanks for everything.

Love Tofino Hummingbird Cottage! You have thought of everything, from the plush towels to the labels to the blankets. We have been coming to Tofino for almost 40 years and you have one of the most amazing retreats we have stayed in!

Ate at Wildside Grill, Tacofino, Rhino, Roar, Long Beach Lounge, Tough City, Shelter, Soul, Toki Doki, The Tofitian, Chocolate Tofino and always… The Schooner. And a delicious board from Picnic Charcuterie. Thank you for sharing your space!
