    We love these cottages and Chesterman Beach. Maybe this fact summarizes it: This was our 5th time in Haidaway cottage, and in addition to that, we have been twice in Hacienda. Sulo and Louise are so lovely people, cottages are cozy and well equipped and the location is just great.

    wow. So the location is pretty much as good as you can get without being directly on the beach. At the same time it's so secluded and hidden we felt like we were in a secret garden. All the amenities you could ask for...I have nothing bad to say. it was perfect. communication with the owners is also really good (prompt, informative, friendly etc)

    We loved our stay in Sulo and Louise’s cottage. It was cozy, well equipped, great location by the ocean, and loved the surrounding trees. The outdoor bath was a treat!

    So nice to be so close to the beach and also have quiet space to relax. We’d definitely stay here again!

    We love staying at Haidaway Cottage. The hosts are very attentive but not intrusive at all. We unfortunately arrived just as a massive storm hit Tofino, so we were without power. Luckily, a thermostat/fireplace was not tied to electricity, so we were able to be comfortable. Our puppy really enjoyed the wild beach during this storm.

    This cottage has everything one could need for a stay right near Chesterman Beach. Appliances are mostly new and working exceptionally well.. I was delighted to find a gas stove and a Bosch dishwasher. Just bring you snacks/food and beverages, and enjoy!t

    A peaceful oasis, minutes walk from the beach calming waves from a distance. The home is cared for with all the amenities needed for a full weeks stay. Outdoor bath was the cherry on top, well kept and a treat to be in nature while in a bath. We'll come back for sure!
