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!

quiet oasis close to the beach

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.

Our family of four had a lovely stay over a long weekend. The Hacienda was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was perfect - a short walk to Chesterman Beach and short drive to downtown Tofino. Keane and Patrick were responsive and check in/out seamless. We will definitely be back.

Gem off Chesterman beach

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!

Great family getaway…

This was the perfect getaway for our family (2 teens). Very clean and included everything we needed in the kitchen, bathroom and living room (tv, wifi, games). One minute walk to the beach-great for daily walks. Quick drive into town. Owners were very responsive and easy going. I would book again if we decide to go back next year.
