The Water’s Edge Shoreside Suites in Ucluelet offer dog-friendly accommodations in a beautiful location. Not all of the suits are dog-friendly so be sure to contact the hotel directly to ensure that you book into a dog-friendly suite. The suites offer views of the ocean or marina (both are beautiful) and comfortable stays with a full kitchen, living room, bedroom (or two) and a balcony for you to enjoy.
The hotel property is quite large so there is plenty of room to take your dog for a bathroom break (please pick up after your dog!)
There is a spa located on site, perfect for relaxing after a busy day of exploring.
Water’s Edge Dog Policy:
Dogs are welcome at the Water’s Edge but please make note of their doggo rules: do not allow dogs on the furniture (if you do you may be subject to extra fee’s), wipe your dog (and their feet) before entering your suite – dog towels are available on check-in to make this an easy task! and pick up after your dog. They also have a poop bag station across from the spa if you forgot to bring your own bags!
There is a limit of 2 dogs per room and a pet fee of $50 per night (to a maximum of $250 per stay). Dogs may not be left alone in the suite or a car on the property at any time.

Our Stay at the Water’s Edge Shoreside Suites:
Avy and stayed at the Water’s Edge in 2020 while on a family trip to Ucluelet. We were travelling with my parents, 2 sisters, their spouses and teenage/adult children. We booked 3 suites – 2 without dogs and one dog-friendly suite that Avy and I shared with my parents. Our site was lovely with a separate bedroom and living room with pull out couch (where I slept) and kitchen. I brought along Avy’s bed so she had a comfy place to sleep as well! Note that you will need to bring bedding and dog bowls as they are not provided.
The only downside to the room that it was on the second floor – which meant going up a set of stairs to access it – and then when you opened the suite door there was another set of stairs to get up to the suite itself. not a HUGE deal but a bit of a hike when hauling in bags, etc. It would definitely be challenging for anyone (or any dog) with mobility issues.
My favourite thing about the suite was the balcony where the 4 of us (my parents, me and Avy) enjoyed coffee each morning, overlooking the marina. It was lovely watching the boats head out for the day as we got our day started.
The hotel grounds are quite large and my 2 sisters had suites about a 5 minute walk away. There was a small beach outside their suites so we took our chairs over in the evening and enjoyed a glass of wine while enjoying the view. We even saw a dog heading out on a paddle board (definitely not something Avy would be up for!)
The hotel was in a great location with restaurants, hikes and beaches nearby. We enjoyed walking the Wild Pacific Trail (Avy especially loved this part) and visited Halfmoon Bay – a favourite beach. We also booked appointments in the hotel spa and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Overall a fun and relaxing experience, and I loved having Avy there for all of it
