Thetis Island Getaway

Nestled off the West Coast of British Columbia, Thetis Island is home to approximately 400 residents and zero predatory animals.  Peace and tranquillity, picturesque rural landscapes, stunning shorelines, and crystal-clear waters await visitors.  

Residents enjoy convenient amenities, including two marinas and a variety of cottage industry businesses. There are no large grocery stores on the island, so bring what you need for an epic vacay. The marinas do offer general provisions like fresh fruit and local veggies, fresh and frozen meats, a variety of cheeses, freezer sections, and a curated selection of alcohol. 

Pawsitively pet-friendly! 

Bring your furry friends along for the adventure—Dogs are more than welcome to join you on the boats. Just don’t forget their life jacket. Whether they’re lounging on the deck or cruising the waters, your dogs will have a blast (and so will you)!

Charge Up: EV-Friendly Property

We're proud to support sustainable travel! Our property features an EV charger, so you can keep your electric vehicle powered up and ready for all your island adventures.

We had a lovely time and the cabin was great. Super easy to check in and out. The kayaks and paddleboards were a hit and enjoyed exploring. Water was calm and warm and we will be back for sure next summer.

Absolutely beautiful place, plenty of amenities at the cottage, and great host. You can kayak to a nearby island and see a bunch of seals sunbathing. Just a fantastic place to relax by the water, read a book, play cards, and drink a beer.

Excellent property! Only thing to be aware of is that you need to bring all of your garbage off the island with you so just be aware of that before arrival.

We had a lovely two night stay at TIGA with our young adult kids and dog. Really enjoyed the covered deck, view, dock and access to kayaks for exploring out on the water. The cabin is clean, nicely decorated and set up well for a relaxing stay. Kitchenette had everything we needed for preparing easy summer meals including a good sized toaster oven and hot plate. Appreciated filtered water tap as found water on island had a mild sulfur smell. Thanks for the warm welcome Elly - we would love to come back to TIGA for a future stay!

Best private ocean stay ever!

This was such a lovely place to stay. A private ocean getaway. We swam, went kayaking, and rested on a private dock. The house was fully stocked with all we needed, the bedrooms were lovely, the outdoor shower was a plus, and the covered deck was perfect for our evenings. The host Elly was amazing, she even connected us to a local fellow that delivered us fresh crab for an incredible price! There were such little extras, like her homemade jam which was delicious. Telegraph cafe nearby was also a delight for a serene cup of coffee and homemade goodies. Thanks Elly, we will definitely come again!!

A Breathtaking Escape to Thetis Island GetawayOur stay at Thetis Island Getaway was nothing short of magical, a perfect blend of luxury, serenity, and thoughtful hospitality that left us longing to return before we even packed our bags. From the moment we arrived, the pristine condition of the house set the tone for an unforgettable retreat. The home was immaculate, sparkling clean, and exuded a warmth that made it feel like a true home away from home. Every detail, from the plush linens to the carefully curated decor, showcased the owners’ meticulous care and thoughtful design, creating an atmosphere of effortless comfort and charm.The house was a haven of convenience, with every amenity fully stocked and ready for our use. From the well-equipped kitchen to the cozy living spaces, everything was thoughtfully provided to ensure a seamless stay. For those traveling with electric vehicles, the on-site Tesla charging station was a game-changer, adding a layer of modern convenience that made exploring the island stress-free.But the real star of Thetis Island Getaway is the view. Oh, the view! Perched above the water, the house offers a breathtaking panorama that captures the soul. Sitting on the front patio, coffee in hand, watching the sunlight dance across the waves below was a daily ritual that felt like a gift. The serene beauty of the ocean stretched out before us, framed by lush greenery, creating a postcard-perfect scene that was impossible to tire of.The private ocean
