Ecolodge of Tofino must have used a set decorator for their website,because the place itself is bare bones, no soap,shampoo,tissues, tv or radio and minimal furnishing.The promised breakfast was cold oatmeal after which you are required to wash your own dishes. Shoes can also not be worn in the house. We felt totally misled already upon arrival but too tired... More

Our stay here was during the early spring, when camping out would still be a little damper and chillier than I would enjoy. Because it was the off-season, we got our very adequate little room at the Ecolodge for $90 a night, not including tax. We felt fortunate to get this because of the insanity that Tofino has exploded into.... More

My husband and I recently stayed at the Ecolodge for the weekend. A great property - very clean and well maintained. At only $145/night and a hearty (delicious) vegetarian breakfast included, it was a pretty good bargain for Tofino. The walls are a bit thin....it could just be that I had neighbours with fairly loud voices, but there is quite... More

The highlight for our first visit to Tofino was staying at the Eco-lodge. Owners and hosts George and Josie were very welcoming, fonts of local knowledge and passionate about protecting the environment, and running a sustainable business. Great coffee (finally after days of undrinkable stuff along the way) at their Darwin cafe, and the breakfasts (the lodge works as a... More

If you have always wanted to visit Tofino but need to stay somewhere that is affordable, comfortable, and "different" than a big-box hotel or a undistinctive B&B then you have got to stay here. I saw the word "Eco-Lodge" on their website and was immediately intrigued. The lodge is set up with private rooms (awesome mattresses) but some communal aspects... More

I've been staying at the Field Station for the past three years or so, whenever I come out for a weekend from Vancouver. It's quiet, clean, and totally affordable. I was surprised in my most recent visit to see the changes they are making to the place, which is making it even better. Before it was hostel-style accommodation (think dorm... More
