Make a Splash in July

How about a spontaneous escape to Tofino in an Oceanside Suite for 4?

Summer is here in a big and beautiful way, but if July snuck up on you and you’ve got some gaps in your calendar, think Tofino.

With the recent Grand Opening of our new Oceanside Suites, we still have some 1 Bedroom Suites available now thru July 20th. So if Tofino's relaxed vibe, Cox Bay views, and a beachfront suite for up to 4 people sounds like a plan, let’s make it happen! [more]

Congrats to Instagrammer @123kimberly!
