Snug Harbour Inn

Snug Harbour Inn (SHI) is a special place. So much is perfect about it. The co-owners, Marc & Jessica, are the consummate hosts; the location of the inn is magnificent, perched as it is on a cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean, while nestled in old growth forests, & within easy walking distance to wondrous nature trails, as well as local beaches. Indeed Snug Harbour Inn has its very own private beach with a magical stairway down to it. Guests have access to this facility & most are eager to take advantage of this privilege, many lighting a fire, watching the sun set or rise, sitting on logs washed up on the beach, most certainly sipping or nibbling, while doing so. It is also easy walking distance from the ocean village & the pubs & restaurants of which there are a good few serving good food. As well this ocean village of Ucluelet has its own brewery, which crafts delicous brews. SHI has six well appointed suites, four of them in the main building, & two in separate units in the forest. Guests get a full breakfast, which is varied & delicious, & which can be eaten in one’s room or at a communal dinning table. There is a sauna & hot tube out looking over the ocean. It is adult only, so as to offer a place of peaceful & romantic respite. It has bicycles one can use free of charge, as well as paddle boats. It also has a great set of powerful binoculars to view the wild life that populates the sky & the ocean. Yes, indeed a very special place is Snug Harbour Inn. I recommend it without hesitation.

What a beautiful stay - magnificent views, very charming hosts, great property with incredible sauna (what a view!) Downtown a 15’ walk or take the free of charge bikes. Delicious breakfast and a convenient guest laundry. Thanks for 3 lovely days/nights!

Wishing we could have booked for more than two nights but we booked 10 days before arrival, and we were lucky to get the two nights that we did! Looks like the innkeepers may have changed since last year, but Jori (sp?) and his wife were fantastic. Jori is extremely knowledgeable on the area and things to do – we really appreciated his input on hikes, and he had great suggestions. The Inn is perfectly maintained with great beds and views – looks just like the photographs. It is located in a great neighborhood, and we walked to town as needed. My husband saw the neighborhood bear, but I did not ☹

We loved this elegant cozy inn on its private beach! We started our days with incredible culinary presentations and pairings, served by our lovely, intuitive hosts Sue and Scott. They provided local info re the beaches, catch and release acquarium, salmon hatchery and more. The rooms were clean and spacious with huge windows, porches, close ocean views, king beds, fridges, heated bathroom floors with large showers... I loved finishing our days in the sauna then hot tub, both overlooking the ocean. A great place to stay.

This is a luxurious place to stay, with massive, comfortable beds and glorious sea views. Breakfasts are culinary masterpieces, which you can either have in your room or in the living room with others. Sue and Scott are friendly and helpful hosts.
