About this apartment rental

THE SEASHELL: The building is named after Fred Tibbs, an eccentric British pioneer who arrived in 1905. He purchased a small island off the Tofino shore, calling it 'Dream Island.'

8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Oct 2025
Great location with amazing views. Really appreciated the coffee and soap, shampoo, conditioner! Some things to note were that the unit smelled strongly of men's cologne and the jacuzzi tub didnt work. The jets in the tub also looked like they needed to be cleaned. Not easy to get in and out of the shower/tub even without any mobility issues. Other than that it was great.
