Where the West Coast of Vancouver Island meets the full might of the Pacific Ocean, Cox Bay Beach Resort is not just a retreat; it is a statement of natural beauty and refined contemporary opulence. Arriving at this coastal haven, guests are greeted by an expansive lobby featuring local art that reflects the rugged beauty of the surrounding environment, combined with soaring ceilings and a polished stone fireplace that invites you into the warmth of the Pacific spirit. Signature features abound, from the well-appointed fitness centre and infrared sauna to the outdoor hot tub - each offering a breathtaking view of Cox Bay Beach. The lounge, adorned with a stunning stone fireplace, straightforwardly draws you into its embrace while the elevated lookout pavilion beckons for quiet reflection and the enjoyment of uninterrupted ocean vistas. Dining here is a culinary journey, where you can enjoy wild salmon prepared six ways, fresh Dungeness crab, and the finest oysters, all sourced locally, creating a vibrant tapestry of flavors that is as rich as the surrounding sea.

Explore the Local Area

Located just 15 kilometers from Tofino-Long Beach, Cox Bay Beach Resort provides an enviable position for exploring the surrounding natural majesty.

Notable nearby attractions include the enchanting Tofino Botanical Gardens (3.5 km), the unique artistry at Solart Glass Studio (2.5 km), or the local distilleries offering crafted spirits, all easily reachable by car. As the region is best discovered via its waterways, consider a guided kayak trip or whale watching excursion to see grey, humpback, or even orca whales in their natural habitat. Arriving by car is seamless; ample parking awaits your arrival, paving the way for day trips into the untouched landscapes of Clayoquot Sound.

I appreciate the full kitchens in the suites, ideal for families or extended stays, and the thoughtful touches like the infrared sauna add a wellness dimension. Its location next to the national park speaks to a truly immersive nature experience.”
