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.

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.

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.

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!

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

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!

The cabin was so cozy, it was exactly what we were looking for. The bed and linens were very comfortable and the cabin was well stocked. We loved how private the cabin was. We’re already planning next year’s trip.

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!

Everything was exactly as described. A perfect spot for relaxation and access to all that Ucluelet and Tofino have to offer. Loved the little touches such as Rhino coffee and Saltspring Soapworks products.

Cozy Cottage in the Forrest

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Halfmoon Cottage. It was so peaceful there and the surrounding forrest was so tranquil. The hot tub was splendid as well. We enjoyed walking the Willowbrae trail down to the beach in the mornings. We also went to the Shelter in Tofino for dinner on one of the nights we were here (as recommended in the house guidebook). The food was absolutely amazing! We will definitely be coming back soon.

Beautiful log cabin in a private and quiet location. Well-equipped kitchen and barbeque to be able to cook and bake "at home". Roomy yet cozy. Large TV with multiple streaming services. Huge bathtub indoors and jetted hot tub outdoors!

In love with Ucluelet

We’re sold. We’re sold on the peace and quiet that Ucluelet and the surrounding forests and beaches offer. We’re also sold on this cabin…views of nothing but forest, sounds that were all nature. We don’t have one complaint about our stay and will absolutely be back again. The cabin as it is is wonderful and then you add the little details: Salt spring soap products, a beer waiting for us. And, communication with the property management was seamless from start to finish. Wow, just wow.

Perfect hideaway

Was perfect for what I wanted out of the vacay- a quiet place to contemplate, relax, enjoy nature and have a hot tub. It’s only 5min away from Ucluelet and about 30 to Tofino and both drives are easy and scenic. The cabin itself is exactly like it’s pictured. Only issue was that it had tons of spider webs when I got there and some dust, so looked like parts of the cabin hadn’t been touched/cleaned in awhile. It’s around the corner from a couple really nice trails to beaches/coves that were good for the dog and I to walk to (however, if you have an old dog like mine who can’t do stairs, be prepared, you’ll need to carry them then!). Overall would 100% stay again and hope to be back in the future with my partner. This time it was the dog and I and it was the perfect spot to sit, unwind, unplug and enjoy all that the area and nature has to offer.

Cant wait to come back!

We’ve been to Tofino/ucluelet many many times but haven’t enjoyed our stay as much as we did staying at the halfmoon cottage! It’s secluded enough but still close to everything! The cabin itself was beautiful and full of everything you need to enjoy your stay, not to mention the claw foot tub or hot tub in the trees. And also pet friendly which is a huge win for us. We walked down to florencia bay and halfmoon bay one afternoon which was stunning and we had the beach to ourselves. We can’t say enough good things and are already counting down the days until our next trip here :)
