Description
Own a Piece of the Waterfront: The Swept Away Inn
Here’s something you don’t come across every day: a floating inn with serious charm and endless potential, moored in one of Port Alberni’s most dynamic waterfront locations.
Welcome to the Swept Away Inn - a fully licensed, seaworthy vessel transformed into a hospitality experience like no other. From the moment you step aboard, it’s clear this isn’t just accommodation - it’s an opportunity.
The main level offers timeless nautical character, from the rich wood detailing to the classic portholes framing inlet views. A generous lounge sets the tone for relaxed gatherings, while the commercial-grade kitchen and bar area are ready for anything from private dinners to culinary ventures. There’s booth seating in the dining room, ideal for guests or group events.
Below deck, you’ll find practical features like a mechanical room, laundry, ample storage, another full bath, and even space for additional accommodations.
The main floor houses five guest rooms (each with two single bunks, sinks, and built-ins), plus shared 2-piece and 3-piece bathrooms. Upstairs, a second lounge opens to the upper deck - the perfect spot for morning coffee or an evening wind-down. Three more rooms (two with double bunks, one with single and double bunks), three 3-piece bathrooms, and the original wheelhouse round out the upper level.
And the location? Right at Harbour Quay. That means steps to local restaurants, artisan shops, the Quay-to-Quay path, and the energy of Uptown Port Alberni.
This floating property is fully connected to city utilities and includes backup generators, water storage, and a seaworthy design built for both comfort and reliability.
Whether you see it as a business venture, a creative space, or your next adventure - the Swept Away Inn is ready when you are.
