Pacific Sands Beach Resort

Hotel overview

Pacific Sands Beach Resort is in a fabulous location at one end of Cox Bay, a sweeping sandy beach ten minutes south of Tofino. The property is set amongst native old-growth forest and offers a range of spacious and comfortable suites, perfect for settling into this area for a few nights. Each suite has a separate bedroom, a comfortable lounge area with a gas fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen with a dining area, and an outdoor patio or deck. All guests have access to the sprawling lawns and gazebo BBQ, and the sound of the nearby surf provides the soundtrack for your stay. The beachfront suites are literally a few steps away from the beach, whilst the lighthouse suites are set a little further back but offer wider views of the bay. The two-bedroom beach houses are perfect for families or couples travelling together, offering total comfort and luxury in a fantastic beachfront location. The property has an onsite surf school, bike rental, a range of beach toys for guests’ use, and a DVD movie library for those cosy nights in. There is an espresso bar in the guest services area, and basic groceries such as milk, eggs, and orange juice can be purchased here as well; however, the shops and restaurants of Tofino are not far away.
