“Terrible service has a new name. WYA Point.”
+We booked our stay on June 20th, 2018 for our stay in August. When we arrived, with our confirmation number from Hotels.com, WYA Point had no record of our reservation. After searching, the receptionist found our reservation, now through Expedia, but they were full. The receptionist sent a message to Jonathon to rectify the situation. We waited for 2 hours for a resolution before we realized WYA Point was not helping. We were given the option to set up our tent in their dog park... Staying in our yurt was going to be the highlight of our vacation, brutal. WYA Point ended up doing nothing, no calls for other reservations, nothing. We had to retreat to Port Alberni for the night. The following day, no resolution, back to Port Alberni. Finally I followed up today with WYA Point to see if they had determined how to compensate us, and they went as far as to tell me they did an internal investigation and determined that is was not their responsibility. Pardon me? You found the reservation, printed out, while we were standing at your front desk, 1000 miles from home. The most disgusting service I have ever received at a hotel. Shame on you WYA Point. Shame on you.
+The poor location of the checkin relative to the resort was frustrating. The possibility of contaminated drinking water made it tough as every cup of it had to be boiled. No one wanted to use the water to bath even. Great location otherwise as the view could not be beaten.

“Magnificent place”
+Cabins are amazing, overall experience is wonderful. The only downfall is that hotel staff didn’t provide proper payment info in advance and they misguided us about that and charged extra $100 upon check-in even though they sent us receipt with fewer amount beforehand.
“LOCATION, LOCATION”
+Location, location, right on the ocean, waves crashing all day and night, wildlife, we saw a seal, a bear and a wolf, immaculate, high end bedding and towels, friendly staff, large view windows, deck, very poor Internet/WiFi was the only negative and an upgrade would be a benefit in all ways. There doesn't seem to be any availability on Hotels web site, impossible to rebook!
+The only fixing needed is a few good seats and a table on the deck.

+fantastic!! the view breathtaking...the Pacific is on your doorstep, so is a little mink, and the sound is a continuous wave pounding symphony! no wonder they film movies and tv at wya point!
“Comfort right in nature”
+The draw of the yurts are to have the pleasure of waking up right next to the ocean with a little more comfort and warmth. The yurts are ideal for mid-season stays in Pacific Rim when it’s just too cold to camp, as they have a propane stove. They also have a BBQ, plates and warm, comfortable bedding. If you’re expecting luxury, you may be a little disappointed, but if you actually take the time to read the Wya Point website or the yurt descriptions, you will know exactly what to expect. Waking up right next to the ocean in a warm, comfortable bed it unbeatable. The private beach is very special and the rocks are a great place to watch the sunset. This was our second time here and we’d love to make it a yearly tradition. The lodges are also really beautiful, but there is something magical with the yurt, feeling so close to a nature.
+We absolutely loved our stay at Wya Point Resort. It was truly magical. The only thing that was a bit frustrating was that the kitchen was extremely basic and made it a bit hard to cook. There were also many things broken in the kitchen. If you plan on cooking, I would bring some of your own wares. Other than that, it was beautiful! We will definitely be back :)
“Cozy, plush yurt right on the water.”
+My girlfriend and I had a fantastic experience staying in the yurts at Wya point. It was back to nature at its finest. There was everything there for a winter retreat. We could walk the shoreline or just bundle up and hang out in our cozy propane heated tent. Can’t wait to return, hopefully in the summer, for another adventure.
“Beautiful location and comfortable”
+We stayed in the small yurt for 2 nights, and absolutely loved staying here. After a day out hiking, visiting beaches and getting exhausted in the February rain, we were so pleased to come back to a cozy yurt with a warm fire and comfortable futon bed. We brought some homemade soup from and were able to easily cook this inside on a pot on the fireplace. I would definitely stay here again. It was wonderful to disconnect and be by the waves. The yurt comes with blankets and pillows, but we brought some from home. The drive down the windy path was totally safe, even in pitch black with the rain pouring. I loved every minute being here. Bathroom facilities are a short walk across the way. They were clean and no problem to access in the dark with a flashlight.
