Wonderful house in a stunning location
We spent an excellent week over spring break here with our kids. The house was wonderful and the beds were really comfortable. The hot tub was perfect at the end of a cool spring day and the sunset views were nothing short of stunning. I highly recommend this house and would definitely stay again!

Fantastic getaway
This property exceeded our expectations. The location couldn't be better, right off the beach and short drive to all Tofino hotspots. The beds were cozy and the kitchen was well equipped. We enjoyed winding down in the evenings with the hot tub and the big screen tv was a bonus for a late night movie. We would happily stay here again!

Amazing Property
We truly loved the living room area, we spent most of our time in the living room, hot tub and beach. What a lovely home and had a lot of great things for all of us. We love pillows, lots of pillows, lots of blankets to be cozy and great about of dishes so we only had to run the machine onces a day. Great communication with the property manager and we had a lovely time.

Surf and Relax
Alaqua provides the most amazing location for surfing and enjoying the Pacific Northwest at its finest! Between the sun and rain, hot tubbing and playing board games, walking on the beach, surfing, playing frisbee, making memories with friends….we just couldn’t get enough. So we will be back! Thank you for sharing your home with us!
