With its harbor-view picture windows and big stone fireplace, this modern seaside hostel looks more like an upscale lodge than a backpackers' haven. It also has pretty much everything a budget traveler could want: a game room and TV lounge, a shared kitchen and living room, even surfboard storage. Accommodation is available in private rooms with shared bathrooms, family rooms (for four) with private bathrooms, and four- and six-bed dorm rooms with shared bathrooms. Advance reservations are highly recommended. Pros: Unbeatable location in Tofino; ideal for youthful, budget-minded travelers. Cons: No restaurant.
