I just spent 3 days in this fantastic location. It is like home as soon as you enter the cabin. Everything is included ( coffee-tea-condiments-candles-books-cable...). We had music playing when we got in. The beach is just across the road. It was the BEST rental I had in all my travelling. Thanks again for a memorable stay. I did not... More

I don't think I could have been more surprised in my life to have found this Shipwreck Cabin Retreat. I never said OMG so many times ever. Because of the supplies in the cabin we didn't have to pack half of what we did. Loved the whole relaxing atmosphere and you couldn't ask for a better host like Sulo. Hot... More

What a lovely place for a romantic getaway. The Ship Wreck cabin is even nicer than the photos and is fully stocked so you cook meals at home. All the little details of the place show a lot of care went into its creation. Just a short walk across to the beach and very friendly owners. I highly recommend staying... More

We stayed at the Shipwreck in November 2011. It was absolutely the cutest little cabin. Really well laid out and cosy, like being in your own home. It has everything you need in the kitchen and the bed was super comfy. They accept pets, which made it so convenient because Chesterman's means heaven to my dog. The best part was... More

We have been staying at Gold Coast Retreat over the past 10 years....we have stayed in all 3 accomodations, and the latest the Shipwreck is our absolute fave.....the owners really know how to do up their cabins/house in style and it is squeeky clean and comfortable. The outdoor tubs are the best! Beach access across the road and your vacation... More

This is a great get-away! The clawfoot bathtub on the deck and the sauna are amazing. We have been here twice and have loved both times. The beach is just across the road and the suite is fully equipped - you just need to show up with your loved one and some food and there is no need to ever... More

I stayed in the Haidaway Cabin with 2 friends for 3 nights in September 2011. We chose Gold Coast Retreat because of all the good reviews on TripAdvisor. We knew the cabin would be nice because of all the great reviews but when we arrived it far exceeded our expectations. The cabin was very clean, very private, and had everything... More

Just spent 4 nights at the Gold Coast Retreat near Tofino. We chose the Haidaway Cottage which accommodated 2 couples nicely. The cabin had a well-appointed kitchen, comfortable beds and luxurious linens, a wonderful outdoor claw-foot tub and use of a wonderful Finnish Sauna which our hosts fired up for us. The setting was very private, just steps away from... More
