Waterfront holiday rentals in Meares Island

Great view, great base camp for hiking and exploring. Would stay again!

My family and I stayed for a few nights and absolutely loved the space. The pictures don’t do it justice. We loved sitting out on the deck and watching the wildlife and boaters. The accommodations were comfortable and peaceful. It was very close to some restaurants and cafes. We had a great first night at Frankie’s which is right next door. We were happy we stayed in Ucluelet over Tofino.

We loved our stay at Island Vista. A idilc setting - within 2 minutes of getting out onto the lovely balcony a bald eagle flew right past us. The property had everything we could have wanted and it was great to have some outside space. Perfect location on the edge of Tofino town - less than 5 mins from the centre and lots of walking/cycling trails within easy reach. Also Jamie’s Whaling is right next door (we did a whale trip and bear trip and both were fantastic). Lots of amazing restaurants close by - don’t miss out on Shelter and the Shed. April was very helpful and communicative before and during our stay. Thanks a lot - we look forward to coming back one day!

Beautiful location with everything you need for a great stay. We’ve been watching eagles hunting from our balcony 🥰 Check-in was super smooth and no issues during the stay.

Beautiful place! Would definitely come back and Barb is responsive and helpful! Make sure to bring binoculars to make the best out of the view and the wild life around (bald eagles, sea lions, bears, etc.)

Mackenzies place is just amazing! Totally as described and pictures! In front of water, beautiful one bedroom with all things you need to stay:) location is also amazing. It’s at entrance of downtown Tofino. Lots of activities are able to do without car. One of the beach(Tonquin beach)were able to walk even my 5y old daughter! Other beaches also just about 5-10min drive. It wasy first time to visit Tofino and I was so happy to be able to stay Mackenzie’s place! Definitely recommended and I hope we will have a chance to stay again:)

The Orca suite was absolute perfection. The location in Uculete is central and only 20-30 minutes from the best beaches in Tofino. The property also has the most beautiful private beach with a stunning sunset and beautiful landscaping. We absolutely loved our stay and recommend the Orca suite to everyone.

A truly restorative visit. Peaceful place right on the water. Nothing beats listening to the waves crash into the rocks. Hot tub and sauna were luxurious. Kitchen was well equipped. Appreciated the small details of the suite. Hope to return someday.

We had such a nice stay at First Light. Home was very clean and so charming and the view is stunning. Our teens loved the hot tub and sauna. We loved looking for wildlife - lots of bald eagles. I loved being able to walk to downtown Tofino, would love to go back. Erika couldn’t have been nicer or more welcoming. We were really impressed with all the thoughtful details- there was fruit and chocolate for us as a welcome when we checked in. The home is vintage and I hope the 1970s original features will remain. The cedar walls and ceiling and vintage kitchen cabinets and light fixtures are amazing!

The Homestead is a beautiful home in a beautiful, quiet location with amazing views. The house is clean, and overall is good but has many small annoyances of items that haven’t been well maintained. - Stove top elements: some don’t work, those that do are very finnicky and jump from very hot to cool repeatedly while using - Kitchen sink is near to falling out / disconnecting from the counter - Dishwasher soap door is gone & can’t seem to change settings (but does still clean) - Blinds make a horrible high pitched squeal when rolling down - Window crank handles fall off when using - Shower handles super loose and wobbly - Downstairs toilet wobbles - Hot tub has a broken jet and some buttons that don’t work (but is still hot and bubbles) - Fireplace in photos is not usable

We loved our stay. It was very clean & cozy & very well kept. It was exactly as described. One fridge was more like a freezer (that we could control) which we appreciated for our frozen foods! Even with it not being a full kitchen we still felt able to cook which was nice. The hot tub was lovely after long days of surfing. Felt very safe in a very quiet neighbourhood. Host was kind enough to let us check in early.

Lochie ‘s place was in a beautiful and peaceful location. Close to beaches and bike trails. It was clean and the beds were very comfortable. Loved the fancy coffee machine. The hot tub was a welcoming perk also. Communication with the host was easy and check in was straight forward. Loved that there was a storage room for our bikes. I would highly recommend Lochie’s place.

Spent 5 nights here in May 2025. Located in a beautiful spot with easy access to a beautiful hike along the water. The view from the hot tub is stellar. Lots of thoughtful amenities in the kitchen. We felt right at home! Bryan was friendly, had amazing local recommendations and was very responsive. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a lovely 2 days at Kevin’s place relaxing. The apartment has everything you could need to self cater and within easy reach of Tofino. Views of the shore at ow tide are wonderful if you like raptor spotting and the hot tub was a definite hit. Kevin was very helpful with lots of clear instructions.

Lovely home overlooking the muds flats with out of this world sunsets. Not many places on the ocean so Danes place a great choice.

One of the best, if not best accommodation we booked on Vancouver island. We felt so at home. It’s such a light, open house with great character and the views are spectacular! Jo and John were really friendly and helped us with any queries quickly. The house is very well equipped and we enjoyed the hammock upstairs a lot as well. Would highly recommend staying here.

This is one of the best Airbnb's we have stayed in! Spacious, awesome views, super comfy bed, excellent coffee- I could go on and on!! With a balcony for watching the sun go down or for your morning coffee, it really is the perfect place to unwind. Most of the restaurants are within walking distance, there is a grocery store just a minutes walk away & laundry facilities are in the floor below the apartment (really useful as we were 8 days into our trip!) Our favourite restaurant was Shelter- on the waters edge and really fresh tasty food. Highlight of the 3 days was walking in the ancient forest on Meares island. We went with Jamie's tours and found it excellent. Don't hesitate to book this apartment if it is available, we certainly will be when we return.

Connor was easy to communicate with and his condo is fabulous. The views are spectacular and the interior is spacious and beautifully decorated. The bed is very comfortable too. We loved the location on the water and having our meals on the balcony where we spotted sea lions and deer! We would love to stay here again. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful stay in Gabriel’s condo. The location perfect for a visit to Ucluelet; close to local hikes, national parks and beaches. The condo has everything you need to feel right at home and is clean and secure. A bonus is its proximity to very good local eateries.

We had a great stay! Rino communicated well. The kitchen was fully equipped and had everything we needed and more. All the basics were provided, which made things super convenient. Would definitely stay here again.

This is a beautiful location right on the water and very close and walkable into Tofino. We were allowed an early check in - thankyou so much. The location photos do not do this lovely place justice. We saw sea planes, raccoons, sea otters and seals in the harbour from our balcony. The beds were super comfortable. There was a variety of board games to play which came in handy as the WiFi and TV were off while we were staying. However our host recompensed us for this - thankyou. We would stay again in a heartbeat and highly recommend this place, we would hope we may come again sometime - thankyou

Beautiful condo, beautiful town of Ucluelet! Perfect location. Had a fabulous dinner at Pluvio, went fishing with Captain Dean Robin of Peninsula Charters (caught salmon, lingcod, rockfish). If you have an opportunity to stay at Laura’s condo, please do so, you will leave wanting to come back like we were.

We had a wonderful stay! The place was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up. The host was responsive, friendly, and made everything easy from check-in to check-out. The location was great, and the view from the balcony was stunning. The kitchen had everything we needed, and we felt very much at home. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others!

Cute, everything you need, good location slightly off the beaten path, stayed here and did day trips to Tofino, happy with that for a bit less hustle and bustle, cute shops and good restaurants all close by in town. Jess and Ryan both quick to respond to any needs and always ready with a recommendation.
