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.

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.

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.

Perfect Westcoast chill experience

My wife and I have stayed at TVR Flo Bay Retreat twice, and both times have been absolutely perfect. The pictures online hardly capture the beautiful and private forested surroundings. Can't wait to come back.

Quiet and comfortable stay!

Easy to feel at home here! This stay was very enjoyable for my 3 person family and our dog - non-fussy, quality amenities and gorgeous wood cabin. The rain didn't matter, we enjoyed the hot tub and easy walking through the rainforest nearby. Thank you!

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.

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!

Exceptional stay

The property is always spotless, beautiful and so peaceful. This was our 2nd stay and it was as amazing if not even better. The exceptional TVR staff go above and beyond to ensure your comfort and happiness at their locations! I will continue to book through them. Truly a gem in the woods, while being a quick drive to everything you beed/want! I love how support for local businesses is always evident and the best.

Love this cabin!

We just recently spent three nights in the Halfmoon Cottage and absolutely loved it! The cabin is incredibly comfortable. Spacious while still giving that cozy cabin feel. The hot tub was absolutely glorious particularly after getting drenched in the rain while out exploring. The furniture is sooo comfortable, perfect for curling up and reading while the fire gets the cabin toasty warm. L

Another dose of paradise

This was our second year spending part of spring break in Ucluelet at Half Moon Bay cottage. We absolutely love this area, the cabin included. This cabin is perfect for a couple or a family with one or two small children. If/when we return to the area, we will likely upgrade to a larger space with two bedrooms— hopefully with the same rental/property management group. The folks at Tofino Vacation Rentals are super responsive and kind. Great hosts!

Perfect secluded cabin

We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for our honeymoon. The Half Moon cottage was so cute and cozy, and was the perfect place to come back to after days filled with adventure. The cabins are set far enough apart, that you don’t have to see or hear anyone if you don’t want to. The hosts were always quick to respond and gave excellent recommendations. We absolutely loved our stay, and would definitely book again!
