Wow! What a wonderful little place! Pam and Cam have thought of absolutely everything to make your stay enjoyable. Kitchen is very well stocked with dishes and cooking implements and there are even a few staples so you don't have to buy your own cooking oil or salt and pepper. The studio suite is quite spacious and tastefully decorated and the private outdoor patio with outdoor shower is the perfect little oasis. It’s an easy 8 minute walk to a gorgeous secluded beach. When we were there we saw maybe 3 other people on the beach. The only downside is that there's some traffic noise during the day from the main road near their place, but we didn't notice it at night. We absolutely would stay again.

I stayed 3 nights at the Hideaway on a motorcycle trip in a group of 3. This is a beautiful and well-planned space that made a great base for exploring the area.The interior had all the amenities we needed and the outside patio with shower and bbq was an awesome space to spend evenings eating and relaxing. Hosts were responsive and inviting - really impressed.Easy (driving) access to town and a nice bay nearby for relaxing. I would definitely stay here again!

Cozy Hide-away

Used this as a base camp for day trips around the area. Quiet, clean, comfortable accommodation! Loved the grill! Picked up steaks, potatoes, salad and a bottle of wine and enjoyed a relaxed private meal every day. My darling wife binge watched "Wicked Tuna" every night. Great hosts Pam and Cam. They were available if needed but since we didn't need anything - they kept out of sight. Would definitely return to THIS "Wil'Sea Hideaway"!

We enjoyed our stay at Wilsea Hideway, it was a very convenient stay with many items provided by the host like beach chairs and towel, the kitchen is very well equipped. The most enjoyable part is the outside area with the fire pit and the wonderful outdoor shower. Thank you Pam and Cam for all the attention you have for your guest.

Super lovely hideaway near Nanaimo

Stayed as Pam and Cam's first guests. Set in farm lands a short walk from a small beach, the Hideaway was a perfect base for us to explore - easy drive from Nanaimo Ferry. 25 minutes to Cathedral Grove ancient trees, 2 hours from Ucluelet, 2.5 hours drive to Tofino beaches. The Hideway is beatifully decorated and has everything you need - and more. Pam has thought of everything. Kitchenette and bathroom are well stocked with all the essentials (and more). The outdoor space is a nice spot for an evening drink (gas firepit and an outdoor shower). The Well Beach is a 8 minute walk (partly on main road) - with a lovely view over the water to the mountains at sunset. Would have loved to stay longer to explore the local area and brews - next time, hopefully. Thanks for a lovely stay.
