Meares Vista Inn

We stayed two nights at Meares Vista Inn and enjoyed it very much. The location is perfect with only a 2-minute drive to town with lots of cafés, restaurants, shops, art galleries, supermarket etc nearby. Being a family of five, we got a family room with enough beds and storing places for all of us. We also had a fridge and a microwave, which was very convenient. Our host Mandy went out of her way to help us. We forgot a backpack on one of the beach trails and didn't realise until we were at our next accommodation several hours away. She used the local Facebook groups to call for the backpack, got hold of a man who had found it and even helped with transportation to a city near us. We were very grateful as the content was precious to us and we could not have gotten hold of the backpack without her help.

This is a simple motel stay on the edge of town and the new rooms are large and clean. Friendly staff helped us with local recommendations on where to eat. It’s fairly basic and a few bits could do with some maintenance but you get what you pay for.

Great spot, newly / tastefully renovated rooms, clean, friendly staff, well supplied clean outside BBQ and kitchen area was an added bonus if you want to cook your own meal. Good location with an easy walk to downtown. The price was right. (Note: most places are fairly expensive in Tofino) I would stay there again. I like supporting a family-run business especially when they take great pride in ownership and are so accommodating. I would stay there again without question.

This inn met all our expectations. We got what was advertised: a good clean room, with good beds, a small living room with a coffemaker (and coffee) and a good enough equipped bathroom. It is located at the edge of town, so you can leave your car and walk (15 minutes to town centre). It is a wooden building though and the walls are thin, so I guess we were lucky to not have noisy neighbours. Mandy (the owner) was very friendly and laid-back, which also fits the vibe of Torino.
