The Oceanfront Hotel
The Oceanfront Hotel is the only hotel on Malcolm Island, located seconds from the Sointula ferry terminal and family-owned since 1978. The colorful, sprawling waterfront building offers 15 rooms—most with ocean-view decks, full kitchens or kitchenettes, and gas fireplaces—plus a newly renovated beachfront suite. The island is renowned for orca watching, hiking, and a free community bike-lending program, making it a distinctive base for cyclists exploring BC's remote north island.
