Guest Reviews
- Julie (10/5): Superbe chambre, avec une vue splendide et idéalement situé à Tofino! - La vue, l’emplacement, le confort, tout ! Rien!
- Robert (10/5): Quiet location at the end of town but everything is close enough. - Great location. Lovely view. Great shower.
- Jane (10/5): We loved our stay here and highly recommend. - View was amazing. Great location. King bed was very comfy. The receptionist was very helpful when our car broke down. Only facilities for coffee making. I’m a tea drinker so a kettle and teabags would be a good addition.
- Silvan (9/5): - Es war wohl die schönste Aussicht aus einem Hotelzimmer die wir je hatten! Das Zimmer ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen und extremst (!!) Hellhörig.
- Theresa (8/5): Would definitely stay again. Incredible, comfortable room and perfect location. - Perfect location! The ocean views were stunning and we were walkable to so many shops and restaurants. Sunset views were unmatched! Hotel desk staff work 10-6. Not early enough to grab beach towels in the morning before heading out. Sinks were beautiful and large but lacked bathroom counter space.
- Kaytie (10/5): A gorgeous hotel with convenient parking right in town - I would stay again! - Spectacular view, and the rooms were better than advertised. No breakfast on site, and the few killer places in town get very busy - just means a bit of planning ahead.
- Harriet (10/5): Fabulous! - The beds were incredibly comfy. View from the balcony was stunning, spent a couple hours in the evenings enjoying the sunset on there. You have to ask for it, but had house keeping every day. Stayed in the old building but the rooms still felt modern. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Duffin Cove. Rooms a little small but felt cosy and big enough to fit two large suitcases comfortably. Nothing else of note.
- Yvonne (10/5): - WoW - also ich habe das Zimmer wegen der grandiosen Aussicht gebucht und wir wurden nicht enttäuscht. Auch das Zimmer an sich war schön, geräumig, funktionell eingerichtet. Die Kaffeemaschine im Zimmer perfekt für den ersten Kaffee auf dem Balkon! Abends bin ich mit meiner Tochter draussen gesessen und haben die Tiere beobachtet oder sie uns ;-)
Seehunde, diverse Vögel und am Strand, mit direktem Zugang vom Haus, gab es auch diverses zu entdecken.
Der Sonnenuntergang bleibt unvergessen. Das Zimmer war nur mit diversen Treppen erreichbar, war für uns gut machbar, muss man evtl. halt 2x laufen, je nach Gepäck...

- Taya (10/5): Highly recommend - Everything. It was a dream. Incredible view, clean room, comfortable bed. Lovely reception staff. Very close to town. Nothing, it was perfect.
- garrett (8/5): - Amazing view, great location and friendly staff. Would have been nice to have a table (even a small one) and a microwave. Takeout was quite a pain.
- Isuru (9/5): -
- Douglas (9/5): Duffin Cove Resort - Overlooking a tidal rocky shore
Sound of the ocean
. . . midst of an atmospheric river and monsoon rains. small parking area, the pickup trucks could be more polite in how they leave their vehicles
- john (8/5): Functional room-only in a beautiful setting - Great location, friendly receptionist, small, functional room. Not enough places to hang wet clothes/towels etc. Not enough storage space generally.
- Kevin (10/5): This is a lovely place to stay with stunning views. - The view was incredible. The bed was comfortable. The room was clean. Nothing.
- Sara (9/5): -
- TEMPIA (10/5): Cosy . Simple et la situation est magnifique - Très bien situé : vue magnifique depuis la chambre . Simple propre . Bonne dimension .tout le confort . Machine à café , sèche cheveux Rien
- Chloe (8/5): Gorgeous place but could do with a few finer details for the expense - Beautiful view, comfortable beds, very clean No amenities, limited facilities for the cost ie no bar/restaurant but also no microwave?
- Jordan (10/5): -
- Zeinab (8/5): -
- Connie (9/5): We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with amazing views and easy access to Tofino's restaurants. - The location was amazing! We had a glorious view of the ocean. The little A-frame cabin was beautifully designed and very comfortable. We were also in easy walking distance to the shops and restaurants that make Tofino an excellent location to relax and enjoy the moments. The weather. :)
- Doug (10/5): Wonderful cozy hotel with great views and easy access to Tofino. - Great location, quiet, cozy, great view. Nothing.
- Kyburz (10/5): -
- Neil (9/5): Great location - Wonderful views from the balcony. Located at the end of the main strip with allocated parking slots, it was nice and quiet compared to other accommodation in the town. A very short walk to the local grocery story and town amenities but nicely ‘out the way’.
- Thomas (10/5): -
- Karen (10/5): -
- Lorraine (10/5): Would stay again and recommend - Very welcoming and cosy Nothing
- Serge (8/5): -
- Caroline (9/5): -
- Ulf (8/5): - Not much business in November so that we got one of the best rooms in the old part of the hotel with a great view on the sea. Thx a lot!
Very friendly team and super responsive (thx to WhatsApp reachability). You are clearly paying for the view and the chance to walk through Tofino without the need to use your car all the time. If this is your objective, you found the right place (make sure you get a room in the old part of the hotel)
The interior is at a good level. The heating was noisy and unfortunately not a modern energy-efficient system.
- Karen (9/5): - Great place to listen to the waves crash on the rocky coast!
- katie (10/5): Stary night sky & incredible cove - We LOVED our stay in the North Cabin. It was exactly what we needed to escape the buzz of the city to take in the salty ocean air, the crashing waves and incredible night sky where we even witnessed the milky way from what seemed like our own private cove! Hot water was plenty for 4 back to back showers. The coffee/tea in room was tasty, the beds were oh so comfortable and the loft had enough head room for someone under 6’ to walk the middle. The set up was perfect for us for the weekend stay. We especially loved the fireplace on the timer - it added to the ambiance and made us super cozy as we gathered round it bundled in blankets on the floor. It was a incredible stay and we would live to be back one day!
- Susan (9/5): -
- Sarah (7/5): Nice cabin, good location although, a bit overpriced and unclean. - We liked the location, the privacy and the beautiful views from the balcony. Plenty of towels were provided. It could've been cleaner, as there were hairs on the bathroom walls and dust on the lounge lights. Stuffing the wires behind the TV was hazardous and got hot from the fireplace below. A bathtub or hot tub would've made the price point more understandable - given it was in the off-season it was expensive.
- Calum (8/5): -
- Teresa (7/5): Good location but no amenities - The location was great, walking distance to restaurants and shops. The room was very small and clean. The property has no amenities. For close to $400.00 a night I wouldn’t go back.
- Sam Tico (10/5): Unheimlich tolle Unterkunft in Tofino! - Sehr netter Kontakt mit den Verantwortlichen vor Ort. Unheimlich toller Ausblick vom Zimmer / Bett. Sehr saubere Zimmer auf dem neusten technischen Stand. Parkplätze direkt vor dem Haus. Fußläufig in die "Stadt". Die Klimaanlage kann ausgeschaltet werden. Der Kühlschrank ist etwas zu laut für unser Empfinden.
- Yvonne (10/5): -
- Claire (9/5): -
- Salima (10/5): - Beautiful view, comfortable bed, very clean, location Nothing to complain about
- peter (10/5): - The view from the window. Nothing
- Florian (10/5): -
- Rene (10/5): -
- Spring (8/5): -
- Michael (10/5): Super Lage - Super Aussicht mit herrlichem Sonnenuntergängen Etwas mehr Abstellmöglickkeiten sind unbedingt nötig, die Koffer und Garderobe Kombination ist sehr umständlich und eng. Auch hat ein Tisch mit Stuhl gefehlt. Und das es kein Housekeeping mehr gibt ist nun wohl Mode, wohl der Umwelt zuliebe. Aber bei diesen Preisen ist das für mich eigentlich selbstverständlich das täglich das Zimmer gemacht wird, schade.
- Kristin (8/5): We loved the location, the views and the setting - We loved the location, nestled at the end of the point surrounded by rainforest was beautiful. Could only access room by 3 flights of stairs.
No room service during stay which at this price point I would have expected rubbish picked up and bed made. Especially when office hours are limited.
- Jean (10/5): -
- Camille (7/5): -
- Linda (9/5): - Ausblick, Lage, Komfort Mehr Badablage wäre super
- Mariana (8/5): - Muy lindo entorno Habitaciones lindas pero pequeñas
- Lois (9/5): Definitely worth staying. - A gem of a spot! Looks like it's fairly new---at the end of the main street---easy walk to just about anything you could want---fabulous view---Rooms are very comfortable. Good beds. Great views. Well appointed. A really lovely spot to stay. I wouldn't say it's a dislike---I think they are still working things out. Office hours are ten to six. If you leave early have a key drop or let folks know what to do if they leave before office opens---but I think they are still working out the kinks.
- Lesley (8/5): -
- Chris (8/5): - Locatie was top. Uitzicht schitterend Geen bureau.
Kamer was klein.
- luc (10/5): Emplacement parfait avec une agréable terrasse donnant sur l’océan -
- Sharon (8/5): Beautiful Duffin Cove stay! - Beautiful Duffin Cove, loved the sound of the waves. Room was nice, Nespresso machine appreciated. The beds were very comfortable. There is a lot of light that comes in from bathroom. We had to ask for kettle that was supposed to be “in room”. And the description says the rooms are “soundproof” -not so- we could definitely hear the people above us. If there were screens on slider it might help with the mosquitoes.
- Richard (9/5): Lovely quiet hotel in the centre of Tofino - Beautiful view looking out onto the ocean. Great location next to the town centre. Reception opening times could be longer.
- Thiel (10/5): Our stay in Tofino was made better because of where we stayed. - The hotel was perfect. We had a wonderful view and had coffee in the morning on the balcony. The location was fantastic-walked to restaurants and shops.
- Martina (9/5): -
- Fiona (9/5): Comfortable room and great location. It’s heaven to fall asleep to the sound of the ocean. - We loved the room, nice big bathroom and lovely balcony overlooking the ocean. The location is great. You can walk down to the harbour or along the high street for restaurants and shops in minutes. Once you are checked in that’s it. No contact with staff. No amenities.
- Stanley (9/5): - The location ( central) , modern facilities ,
- lamberta (10/5): -
- Claire (9/5): Beautiful and comfortable stay right in Tofino. - The rooms were very comfortable, lovely big comfy bed and gorgeous views. Perfect location. The only downside really was not much hanging space for clothes so we mostly stayed packed during our time there.
- Martin (8/5): -
- Peter (9/5): -
- Giuseppe (10/5): Fantastico - Posizione fantastica. Il cottage è affacciato sull’oceano.
- Gjw (4/5): -
- Frank (10/5): - Super Zimmer mit toller Aussicht bei bester Lage.
Kann ich nur empfehlen. Alles sehr gut fußläufig zu erreichen.
- Bill Franklin (1/5): Try another property in Tofino! - First of all, this isn’t a resort. We had a studio room booked at an outrageous expense. The uncomfortable bed took up more than half the room. There was no closet, storage space was inadequate, there was no storage room for luggage, there was no iron or ironing board, the shower had mold, the room had mosquitoes, the coffee maker didn’t work properly, there was no daily housekeeping, the staff was only present on site eight hours a day, there was no telephone, and after “hours”, guests had no access to ice. The patio and ocean view were nice, but not for the price paid. I would never recommend this MOTEL to anyone. See previous answer.
- Le (10/5): We had a wonderful stay at Duffin. The rooms were beautiful and clean, views are spectacular, and staff were helpful and -
- Peter (10/5): -
- M.J. (9/5): -
- Linzy (10/5): - Wij hadden een super leuk verblijf hier met een magisch uitzicht! Gratis parking, nabij de winkeltjes, supermarkt en restaurants. Heel vriendelijke mensen die je graag met alles verder helpen. Moest ik nog eens naar Tofino gaan, zou ik zonder twijfel opnieuw voor dit verblijf kiezen! Niets…
- Nick (9/5): My stay at Duffin Cove was peaceful, cozy, and the perfect way to enjoy Tofino’s beauty—even in the rain. - Our three-night stay at Duffin Cove Resort was nothing short of wonderful. Even with the rain rolling in for much of our visit, the experience was still incredibly relaxing. In fact, the sound of the waves combined with the rainfall created such a calming atmosphere that it felt like the perfect backdrop for a coastal getaway.
The rooms were modern, comfortable, and designed to make the most of the stunning views. Waking up each morning to look out over the water—even on misty, grey days—was a highlight in itself. The large windows and private deck made it easy to simply sit back, enjoy a coffee, and watch the weather shift across the cove.
What stood out most was how peaceful and secluded the resort felt while still being just minutes away from Tofino’s restaurants and shops. After a day of exploring trails and beaches nearby, coming back to Duffin Cove to unwind made the trip feel perfectly balanced.
Rain or shine, this spot is a gem. The staff were warm and attentive, and the location right on the water makes it unique. If you’re looking for a place where you can embrace the beauty of the coast in all kinds of weather, Duffin Cove is a perfect choice. While our stay was very enjoyable overall, there are a few small improvements that could make the experience even better. In our room, the coffee machine was placed on a very low shelf, which made it a bit awkward to use. Some of the storage areas were also set quite high, making them difficult to reach. On rainy days, more practical touches would be helpful—like additional hooks at the entrance for wet jackets, a larger mat to catch water and dirt before stepping in, and perhaps a small stool by the door to make it easier to remove shoes without tracking mud across the room. These are minor details, but they would add a lot of convenience and comfort to the overall guest experience.
- Jamie (9/5): - Location Hours that staff were present.
- Elaine (8/5): Gorgeous location and enjoyed our 2 night stay - Location and view of water was fantastic! Room was quite small and had to request a kettle - which should be standard. Was rather expensive.
- Hee Yin (10/5): - Love the view
- Mathias (10/5): Very comfortable - The situation
- Cara (8/5): Loved Tofino and the view from duffin cove, great compact room and balcony - Amazing location with everything in walking distance. Rooms were small but bathroom a good size.
The view is amazing and Tofino is stunning! No real facilities, just a room in a great location.
- Alexandra (10/5): Great location, easy walk or drive to main location - Great location, very clean and staff were helpful No complaints
- Georgios (9/5): Superb -
- Bree (9/5): Superb -
- Marc (9/5): Superb - Location was excellent
- Jo (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ann (9/5): No better views in Tofino! - The views were exceptional! There were a lot of stairs for two seniors. That made it somewhat hard to navigate.
- Myrna (7/5): Choose your room number wisely to avoid labyrinth of stairs. - Right in town but great views over the bay So many stairs! I had more than three flights to drag my stuff around. The coffee machine never had hot enough water.
- Thomas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Karen (10/5): Perfect Tofino town base with wilderness right outside your back - The location at the end of the road, but mainly the VIEW from the room. Absolutely stunning
Saw Racoons on the beach in the early morning mist, & eagles flying close by.
- Bryan (9/5): Good location with excellent views of the bay. - Location and views. Lack of mirrors and kept knocking into the ridiculously low hanging bed side lights.
- Carol (8/5): Great location/a little faded - The location - views from the room, and access to the town were superb.
The king sized bed was good and so was the shower. It was a bit style over substance. It looked great but the “extra bit” was missing.
No desk/table; no kettle for tea; utterly uncomfortable outside furniture ; old linen on the beds; cheap furniture fittings.
This was a shame because it could have been fantastic with some extra thought.
- Pam (10/5): Exceptional - Awesome location , very comfortable bed, lovely modern room design, beautiful view of ocean
- Terry (9/5): A great four night break in a great location in Tofino - The location, the view, the facilities, the staff. I would have preferred the free cancellation policy rather than losing one nights charge if I had had to cancel
- Jeremy (10/5): Exceptional -
