Let's be realistic...if you really want to stay in Tofino, stay in the village and if you do that you will have to accept that you will be staying in a basic lodging. But what does that matter? The Weigh West Marine Resort, as lodgings are self-contained apartments. We had one-bedroom and a Murphy bed meaning the apartment easily sleeps either four or two. A kitchenette, outdoor wetclothes store, bathroom, balcony, and car parking are all available. Our rooms had great views of the harbour and mountains. It was even possible to see a glacier on a not-so-distant mountain. The resort has its own pub and restaurant, serving up reasonable food, with friendly waiters, for a reasonable price that is perched on stilts over the calm inlet water. The rest of Tofino is a quiet community (well in October anyway) the village is compact and there are plenty of places to eat/drink.
Best to have a car with you though...unless you fancy hiring a bike and riding round the rainforest which surrounds you.
