Swept Away Inn - A unique tugboat hotel with French Moroccan dining and ocean views
A restored 1944 tugboat at Harbour Quay, Swept Away Inn provides a distinctive overnight experience with mountain and ocean views. The simply furnished guest rooms include wooden furnishings, bunk beds, and ample storage, with some offering private terraces and sea views. Guests can dine at the onboard French Moroccan restaurant, where Chef Bouchra prepares dishes using local and organic ingredients, including omelettes and crepes for breakfast. Activities like windsurfing, fishing, and kayaking are available nearby, along with access to trails and attractions such as Hole In The Wall and MacMillan Provincial Park. The property features free Wi-Fi, a shared lounge, and a 83.6 m² deck. Groups of 10 or more can book the entire tugboat for private dining. The inn is 50 km from Qualicum Beach and a 1-hour drive from Tofino.

Proximity to outdoor activities like windsurfing, hiking, and scenic flights enhances the experience.
