Reviews and Ratings
Arriving at the hotel, I found the location to be outstanding, offering everything one could need including proximity to the beach and town. The rooms were a bit of a hassle to access upon check-in, particularly with luggage in the rain, but once settled, they were equipped for self-catering even though a room appeared occupied without anyone inside. The facilities should be upgraded to match the resort's rustic yet luxurious energy.
The Long Beach Lodge is ideally located in Tofino, close enough to enjoy the surroundings while offering solitude and quiet. The rooms are well designed, clean, and comfortable for 2 to 4 persons, although privacy could be an issue due to their location. The service provided by the staff members was wonderful and welcoming, ensuring a pleasant stay. The location is perfect for exploring, watching surfing, and enjoying a wonderful open kitchen concept. The dining experience with a kitchenette was convenient, although more morning options could enhance the stay. The facilities are adequate, offering a comfortable and enjoyable experience overall.
The hotel offers well-appointed rooms ideal for self-catering stays, though the inability to open the window can be inconvenient, especially while handling luggage carts in the rain. It provides a self-contained condo with all necessary amenities for a comfortable stay.
The hotel is ideally situated right at the beach and has a great location by Cox Bay Beach, perfect for enjoying surfing and breathtaking sunsets. The rooms were clean, well-stocked, and cozy with a lovely gas fireplace, ideal for a comfortable stay. The service, though satisfactory, did the bare minimum. The hotel offers convenient laundry facilities. The dining experience included a kitchenette for morning light salads. The overall location outside of town, but on the beach, is lovely.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean, well-stocked, and cozy with a great gas fireplace. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff. The location was incredible, just 100 meters from the Pacific Ocean with amazing sunsets. The dining experience with a kitchenette was convenient. However, the facilities could use some renovation to match the luxurious rustic facade of the resort.
