HOTEL OVERVIEW

Nestled along the picturesque coastline of Vancouver Island’s western shore, the 4-star Waters Edge Shoreside Suites offers an exceptional retreat in the charming coastal community of Ucluelet, British Columbia. Located at 1971 Harbour Crescent, this premium accommodation boasts an impressive 8.8 rating from satisfied guests, reflecting its outstanding service, stunning location, and superior amenities. The hotel’s name perfectly captures its prime positioning—literally at the water’s edge—providing guests with breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean and the rugged beauty of Canada’s western coastline. Ucluelet, a gem in Canada’s natural landscape, sits near the world-renowned Pacific Rim National Park Reserve, offering visitors access to some of the most spectacular wilderness experiences in North America.

Waters Edge Shoreside Suites combines luxurious comfort with authentic West Coast ambiance, creating an ideal base for exploring the natural wonders of Vancouver Island. The property’s location in Ucluelet places guests just minutes from Wild Pacific Trail, known for its dramatic ocean vistas and ancient rainforest paths. The area is also celebrated for storm watching during winter months, whale watching in spring and fall, and access to the legendary Long Beach—a surfer’s paradise and beachcomber’s dream stretching between Ucluelet and nearby Tofino. The hotel’s harbor-side position means guests can observe fishing boats and pleasure craft navigating the protected waters, while also being just a short drive from Ucluelet’s quaint downtown area with its local galleries, craft shops, and seafood restaurants serving the freshest Pacific catches.

The exceptional 8.8 rating awarded to Waters Edge Shoreside Suites speaks volumes about the guest experience, placing it among the top-rated accommodations in the region. This distinguished score reflects the hotel’s commitment to providing spacious, well-appointed suites with modern amenities while maintaining the authentic charm of coastal living. Each suite likely offers a private balcony or patio where guests can savor morning coffee while watching eagles soar or enjoy evening cocktails as the sun sets over the Pacific. The Shoreside Suites concept suggests generously sized accommodations ideal for couples seeking romance, families requiring space, or adventure enthusiasts needing comfortable recovery after days spent exploring the wilderness. While maintaining the expected refinement of a 4-star establishment, Waters Edge embraces the relaxed, nature-connected atmosphere that defines Canada’s western shores.

The calm and privacy, the views from the balcony over the sea.

What could be improved: It’s quite a walk into the town but wasn’t a problem for us we had a car. The quietness made this up.

Beautiful setting. Wonderful staff. Lovely suite. Great place for a getaway and great home base for our west coast adventure

What could be improved: We had a mixup with our reservation and someone else was given our suite. The staff handled it well but we had to take a downgrade and didn’t end up staying in the suite we reserved.
The only other problem we had was not being able to see the suite numbers in the dark. They were painted dark on dark and are nearly invisible at night.

Our suite/studio was much bigger than expected! Very comfortable for a group of 3 adults + 1 kid. The location is ideal and we saw a lot of wildlife from our living room window! We saw bald eagles flying around, seal right under our window, and with our binoculars, we even saw black bears on the opposite shore looking for crabs at low tide. If your rental unit is facing Port Albion, keep your eyes open at low tide for black bears. It is far and barely noticeable with the naked eye, but if you have good binoculars you will be able to watch them. It was quite a treat!

Laura from Canada (10 October 2024)

2 bathrooms with 4 people is great, and we had a great view.

What could be improved: The boardwalk was unusable

The hotel is set well back from the main road but still within walking distance if you are so inclined. Setting was beautiful and restful. The unit was essentially a one bedroom apartment.

The hotel is set well back from the main road but still within walking distance if you are so inclined. Setting was beautiful and restful. The unit was essentially a one bedroom apartment. Mine faced the marine and Ucluelet. Lots of natural light. The kitchen was well equipped. Large dining table next to the window. Comfortable leather sofa and chair. Deep tub in the bathroom plus shower. I would definitely return on another trip. There is a great day spa on site that is worth a visit too!

What could be improved: Not a big deal. They had recently painted the exterior with oil-based paint. With the sliding door to the balcony and soaker tub, you could smell the paint initially but decreased as time went on.
