Comfy, cozy , beautiful place

Our family of 3 had a great time! loved being close to the beach, the house was spacious and it was peaceful to sit on the deck and listen to the sound of the waves in the distance. Our toddler loved all the books and to play in the yard as well- thanks for being so friendly and accommodating!

Perfectly restful

The Hacienda is perfect for a restful stay. The cottage is very well equipped and is so comfortable and cozy. It’s in such a quiet and peaceful location and you can hear the ocean. The bathtub on the back deck it amazing, you can soak in the tub and listen the ocean and the breeze in the cedars, it’s even nicer in the rain. The fireplace adds a nice ambience to the living room. We walked the beach everyday to enjoy and pastries at The Tofitian cafe. There are so many things to do in the area as well as many restaurants to choose from. The Hacienda is a wonderful place to stay in a little piece of heaven.

This was a very nice separate house -quiet and just a short block from Chesterman Beach, which was great to go for walks on .Well equipped for preparing meals at home. It's just a short drive to Tofino .Nice location for a couple or two couples.

Perfect cottage vacation

The Freeland family of 4 couldn’t have asked for a warmer welcome at The Hacienda! We were all taken by the charm of this spacious cottage, minutes walk from probably the bestest beach in Tofino. Our cottage was clean, homely and humble providing everything we could need in our time spent there. The finer details were the ‘icing’ including the abundance of fresh towels, soaps, fine oils and spices, teas and coffee to name but a few… all these things add up to make the perfect vacation. We were incredibly lucky with the weather too. Unfortunately we didn’t get to enjoy the hot bath on the veranda but would have had we had the time! We would come again if we didn’t live so far away, thank you so very much 🙏

This was our second time staying at the Hacienda and will definitely not be our last. Keane and family are incredible hosts. The property is just steps away from the beach. The space is warm and full of character. The outdoor tub is such a great experience. Looking forward to our next stay here!

Paradise

Keane and Pat were amazing hosts. This property has easily become our top 3 favourites in VRBO history. This home has everything you could possibly want. Having only gone out on 2 occasions for food, this kitchen is well stocked with all the necessary utensils and basic condiments too. The family favourite was the outdoor tub and shower with hot water. This was incredibly welcoming for post surfing lessons in a cold ocean. We have yet to repeat a VRBO stay, but this one might be a must. Thank you Keane and Pat for making our stay that much more amazing thanks to your hospitality.
