About Chims Cabins
Located on the west side of Port Alberni, an easy 5–10 minute drive to the city centre, events, and work sites, Chims Cabins offers a peaceful alternative to traditional Port Alberni hotels and motels.
The property first opened in 2018 as Chims Guest House, beginning with a single guest accommodation. As the property expanded to six self-contained units, the name Chims Cabins was adopted to better reflect the property. Each cabin features a full-size kitchen, private deck, dedicated guest laundry, and dedicated parking.
As a family-owned and operated, award-winning business, we focus on providing clean, comfortable accommodations with thoughtful details that make guests feel welcome. Whether you're visiting for work, outdoor adventure, or relaxation, Chims Cabins offers a quiet and convenient place to stay.
Our commitment to quality and guest experience has earned recognition through traveller review awards and local tourism recognition, reflecting the consistent feedback we receive for cleanliness, comfort, and customer service.
If cleanliness, privacy, and friendly service matter to you, Chims Cabins is a great choice for your stay in Port Alberni.
You can book directly through www.chims.ca for the best rates. While we are also listed on Airbnb and Booking.com, direct bookings are typically less expensive. Guests can easily reach us by text, phone, WhatsApp, email, or Facebook.
The name Chims comes from the Nuu-chah-nulth Barkley dialect word čims, meaning bear. An “h” was added to help with pronunciation and spelling.
