Halfmoon Cottage I Nature Escape I Hot Tub I Pets

HALFMOON COTTAGE at Florencia Bay Reterat is self-catering and privately located on a 2.4 acre old growth forested property bordering Pacific Rim National Park, within walking distance of Florencia Bay and Halfmoon Bay via the Willowbrae Trail. This is a place to unplug and reconnect with nature and decompress from the busyness of life.



All windows frame in the beautiful old growth forest, making this cottage very peaceful. Featuring a beautifully hand crafted log staircase leading up to an open loft bedroom with a queen bed. The cozy living room has a queen size pullout couch that sleeps 2 comfortably. There is a private hot tub nestled in tall cedars & hemlocks. Halfmoon has a double slipper clawfoot tub (for 2), a stand up shower, antique-finish hardwood floors, cast iron fireplace, and floor-to-ceiling picture windows offering great views of the rainforest from all rooms.



About 5 minutes from the town of Ucluelet and a nice coastal drive to the world renowned beaches in the Pacific Rim National Park and the town of Tofino.

It was so cute and exactly what we were looking for! The lights aside from the kitchen were all a little dim, which helped for the cabin aesthetic, but made it would have been nice to have some brighter light options in the bathroom and loft bedroom. Overall, super comfortable, quiet, and private. Just amazing! The host was incredible too!

Peaceful and relaxing stay

We absolutely loved staying in the Halfmoon Cottage. I was a bit concerned it might be too close to the main road but it was set far enough back on the property for peace and quiet and privacy. The cabin was very comfortable and cozy and loved the hot tub right outside our door. Booking with Tofino Vacation Rentals was fantastic. They were so helpful and organized to ensure our stay was great. The cabin was well stocked with everything we needed to cook our dinners. We are planning to make this an annual get away. Maybe even twice a year.

Lovely Private Oasis

We had an amazing stay at this cabin tucked into the beautiful Ucluelet rainforest. The cabin itself is stunning and was exactly what we wanted for our getaway. The location is great - a short walk to the trailhead that leads to Florencia and Halfmoon Bays, 10min drive to Ucluelet, half an hour to Tofino. We will definitely be coming to stay again!

Cabin in the woods

We had a lovely few day stay in the halfmoon cottage in Florencia Bay cottages. The cabin was private and cozy with a full kitchen and a hot tub making our stay very enjoyable, the two of us and our dog Jake were able to relax and make ourselves at home. The TofinoVR staff had great communication from the moment we booked until we were on our way back home. We will stay here again.

Dog friendly

It was a wonderful way to spend our 50th anniversary. We cooked all our own meals, cozied up by the fireplace, enjoyed the hot tub, while our two dogs were content to lay on the deck. A very sweet little cabin that was perfect for us.
