The Best Hotels in Ucluelet

Floor-to-ceiling glass on a black rock promontory above the Pacific, because the rainforest-lodge aesthetic has been done. This contemporary oceanfront resort selected by the Michelin Guide sits outside Ucluelet on Vancouver Island, with rooms built around the view: California kings, gas fireplaces, kitchenettes, and enough square footage that "hotel room" barely covers it. A full-service spa and a sea-view restaurant round things out for when the ocean stops being enough.

Tucked between a deserted beach and the Wild Pacific Trail on Vancouver Island's Pacific coast, this cabin resort sits in the quieter, less photographed neighbor town to Tofino. The one-, two-, and three-bedroom standalone cabins are the draw, each feeling genuinely removed from everything, whether perched at the water's edge or nested deeper in the forest. The main lodge has suites if you want something smaller, but the cabins are why you came.
