Absolutely loved our stay. It’s a beautiful location, quiet but accessible to so many of the best things on the island. You won’t find a better place for a family vacation. We will be back again, no question.
My husband and I are planning on retiring on the island and wanted to see what it was like in the winter. The Inn at the Sea was a great location. The condo had all the amenities we needed. The beds were the MOST comfortable beds we have ever slept in…could’ve had stayed forever. Beautiful location. Will be staying there again.
Beautiful property right on the water. Enjoyed the pool, hot tub, and rocky beach. Good location for visits to Nanaimo and Tofino. Condo has everything you’d need. Tammy responded immediately to the one question we had. Would highly recommend.
We enjoyed our stay at Tammy's property ... the place was bright, clean, and well appointed with amazing views. The property was very nice with a beautiful pool and hottub on the ocean. Communication with Tammy was great and the couple questions we had before and during our stay were answered promptly.

Our stay
We had a great time. Our condo was very comfortable had everything we needed. The walk on the beach was amazing. Hope to come back again. Thank you Tammy!
Two adults, two teenagers and a dog all had a great time. Very tranquil however there was still lots to do. The condo was in great shape. No laundry in the suite.
This unit was completely outfitted, comfortable, and has terrific views. Tammy was very helpful throughout the whole stay and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again .
Absolutely enjoyed our stay at the property. Great location for a relaxed stay. View is great. Swimming pool and hot tub is perfect for kids. This whole place has a nice calm vibe about it. Apartment is neat, spacious and well managed. Kitchen is well stocked. Would love to come back for a longer stay.
We had the most amazing time. Apart from the beauty of the Island, Tammy ensured the property was complete with all sorts of special touches to make us feel welcome and cared for. We can’t wait to get back!!!!!!
Loved the property, but area was a little too remote and quiet for us. Wonderful if looking for a place to unwind and unplug but with no cell reception my teens had a bit of a hard time adjusting.
Everything was great, property is in beautiful shape, unit is well appointed and bright. Brand new BBQs, kids loved the pool and all the adults were loving the hot tub.
Comfortable for a cozy six. Great location on the oceanfront and we enjoyed the hot tub!
We enjoyed our second visit here for a gathering of highschool friends. Quiet and well maintained property on two levels. Tammy was friendly and helpful.

sunrise on the beach
The suite we rented was perfect for a couple. Great set-up for a short or long stay. Loved that we were steps from the craggy shore. Also liked having a laundromat on the property. Even with rainy weather, this was a perfect spot to explore the eastern side of Vancouver Island. Would have loved to stay longer!!

Great location, with all the amenities you need for a quick family getaway!
Loved the space and the property! We travelled with our 3 young kids, ages 2, 4, & 6, and we all had a great time! Between the pool, hot tub, playground and beach, we had plenty to do for our 5 day stay. The only thing that would have been helpful for us would have been an inside lock or latch for the main door so that we didn’t have to worry about our kids being able to open it so easily. Our toddler was able to open it herself, so we had to get put some items in front of the door just in case for safety. Otherwise we had everything we needed. Thanks again for a lovely stay!

Comfortable and fully equipped condo - with great views!
I stayed at this condo for 8 days in February and enjoyed every minute. The view of the ocean was spectacular and the hot tub was as added bonus. Great hiking trails close and the location is close to most areas and yet tucked away for total privacy.
I would recommend this condo to anyone looking for a quiet escape. The owners are wonderful! Very responsive and accommodating to their guests.

Enjoyable get-away preoperty
The property met our needs for a gals get-away. Kitchen was well stocked with all the implements we needed and appliances were in good working order. The site was very quiet at this time of year, and a nice spot for walks and some beach combing. Rooms were comfortable and clean. Will plan to be back next year.
