About this property
Steps to Terrace Beach & Trails • Whale’s Tail
A relaxed coastal studio just steps from Terrace Beach. Whale’s Tail puts you right beside the Wild Pacific Trail and Lighthouse Loop - one of Ucluelet’s most beautiful places to explore. Newly refreshed with modern touches and a thoughtfully stocked kitchenette, it’s an easy home base for beach walks with your dog, surf trips, and quiet evenings by the ocean. Guests love how quickly they can step outside and be on the beach or trail. You might even see some whale’s tails if you’re lucky!
Whale’s Tail is a comfortable main-floor studio suite designed to make exploring Ucluelet easy.
The open layout includes a queen bed, a new queen sofa bed, and a cozy living area with an electric fireplace - great for relaxing after a day on the trails or beach. The pull-out couch isn't your typical sofa bed - it's an ultra high-end piece featuring a high quality memory foam mattress for a genuine mattress-level comfort, and an effortless one-pull operation that converts it in seconds. Guests are consistently surprised at how well they sleep on it.
The kitchenette includes a cooktop, small fridge, sink, and cooking essentials, making it easy to prepare simple meals during your stay. Many guests mention how thoughtfully equipped the kitchen is compared to similar studio spaces.
The bathroom was recently renovated with a new shower. Decorated with local artwork, the suite reflects the supernatural West Coast vibe of Ukee.
While the space is compact, it’s carefully designed to have everything you need for a restful stay near the ocean. The suite is not oceanfront, but Terrace Beach and the Wild Pacific Trail are only a few steps from the door.
Guests travelling with pets will also appreciate the small touches like dog bowls, towels, and blankets provided for furry companions.

★ What This Place Is / Isn’t ★
This place is: ✔ A cozy, well-equipped studio suite in a small resort building with two suites above ✔ Just steps from Terrace Beach and the Wild Pacific Trail ✔ A comfortable home base for exploring Ucluelet’s beaches, wildlife, and coastal hikes ✔ Thoughtfully stocked with everything you need for cooking, relaxing, and travelling with pets
This place isn’t: ✖ A large multi-room home - it’s a studio layout where sleeping and living areas share one space ✖ An oceanfront or ocean-view suite - the beach is only steps away, but not visible from the suite ✖ A private standalone cabin - the suite is part of a quiet building with other guest suites
Who This Place Is Perfect For Whale’s Tail works best for couples, solo travellers, surfers, hikers, and small families looking for an affordable place to stay close to the ocean. Guests travelling with dogs especially appreciate the easy access to beaches and trails. The suite tends to feel most comfortable for two guests, up to four can stay using the sofa bed, though the studio layout means everyone shares the same open living space.
Guests who plan to spend their days exploring the outdoors and evenings relaxing in a cozy and affordable space right by the beach tend to enjoy this suite most.
Guest access: The entire studio is for you to privately enjoy a memorable vacation.
The suite is located in a resort complex connected by boardwalks meandering through the rainforest. You will have your own entrance. Access to the suite is self-check-in with a keypad code.

★ WILDLIFE ★ Ucluelet is a small seaside town surrounded by wilderness. Please do not leave any food or garbage outside! Bears and other wildlife frequent the neighbourhood, be cautious of your surroundings, lock entry and vehicle doors, and it’s a good idea to carry bear spray. There is also a majestic family of eagles located in the large tree above so please be mindful of small children and pets.
★ THE DRIVE TO UCLUELET ★ Portions of the drive to Ucluelet have limited reception and limited gas stations or stores. Plan to fill up in Port Alberni - the last major hub for your grocery/supply/restaurant needs before you reach the town. You can also get groceries and gas in town when you arrive.
