About this house rental
ALAQUA ON THE BEACH is a long-standing rental in Tofino that has been newly updated. Located DIRECTLY on North Chesterman Beach where you can watch the waves roll in while relaxing inside by the fireplace or step out onto the back deck to take in the view while enjoying your private hot tub or fire pit. You'll enjoy the sweeping views of the ocean and relax under midsummer's starry nights or drift off to sleep to the tranquil rumblings of the Pacific Ocean.

The panoramic views of the surf are the backdrop for any chef adventures, with a large kitchen island with comfortable bar seating for all chefs in training and a 6 seat dining table perfect for entertaining.
Living Area: Your comfy retreat after adventure is on the main open concept level with large smart TV with cable and a large gas fireplace.

The Alaqua has the perfect location! It was so easy to walk the surfboards off the deck directly to the ocean, with a quick shower after the wet suit comes off and directly into the hot tub to take the chill off!
The very large kitchen/living area is perfect for having all guests in the same place!
An amazing location and the property management company was so good to deal with!!

We had such a special stay at Alaqua on the Beach—truly one of those places you don’t want to leave.
The location is unbeatable, right on Chesterman Beach, with the ocean literally at your doorstep. Waking up to the view and the sound of the waves and being able to walk straight onto the beach (or watch the surfers from the living room!) was wonderful. The views are absolutely stunning, whether you’re inside by the cozy fireplace or outside on the deck. Sunsets were incredible as well!
The house itself felt warm, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up for relaxing. We loved the open living space and beautiful wood details—it had that perfect West Coast feel. Everything we needed was there, from a well-equipped kitchen to comfortable beds, making it easy to settle in right away.
The outdoor space and the hot tub overlooking the ocean was incredible, especially in the evenings under the stars. It’s such a peaceful, private setting surrounded by nature, yet still so close to everything in Tofino.
It’s clear this home is designed for making memories—whether that’s slow mornings with coffee, long beach walks, or cozy nights in. We left feeling relaxed, reconnected, and already talking about coming back.
Highly recommend—this place is something truly special.
And love that it was dog friendly !! Our dogs had the best time!! There was an outside hose for us to be able to hose them down before they came in so we could keep the house clean, really the whole thing was just perfect!!

We love staying here! So well located, and they allow our pup to join in the fun - pretty sure no dog is happier than when they are running around the wide beaches of Tofino. We will be back!
