Wake to the sunrise peaking over Meares Island, casting a golden hue over the water. With nearly an acre to explore, including the yard and private beach, the home comfortably sleeps up to 6 guests. Soak in the hot tub, steam in the cedar barrel sauna, or cozy up to the fire — these touches make the home truly special.

I could not possibly be more pleased with our experience at this home. The location was perfect, right on the ocean, with an amazing woodfired, sauna, and hot tub. The owner was extremely communicative, and added so many special touches to the property, which made such a big difference for us. The beds are so comfortable, tons of natural light, and lots of cookware, which was great, because we were able to cozy up and stay home! I can’t wait to book this place again, I would highly recommend to anyone looking for that perfect Tofino getaway. ##### Kathryn D. Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anthony J Y.

It met all of our expectations. Our host was outstanding and a good communicator. We would definitely stay here again if we're able to get back to Tofino. ##### Anthony J Y.

The open main floor with huge windows looking over the water was spectacular. Erika was very easy to communicate with and our stay was special. ##### Heather N.

First Light makes an excellent place to stay with your family. Beautiful views/location and the house itself is beautiful. ##### Omar R.
