Welcome to Shantz Haus Hostel

The Comox Valley is an outdoor lover’s paradise, where mountains, rainforest and sea converge.  After a day of adventure you need a place where you can relax and feel at home.   Shantz Haus, a boutique hostel centrally located in downtown Courtenay, is just the place.

Shantz Haus will change the way you think about hostels.  We offer you a comfortable home away from home, a cozy space with all the warmth and hospitality of a B&B combined with the friendly camaraderie and affordability of a hostel.

With a wide array of accommodations and conveniences, Shantz Haus Hostel is ideally suited for solo travellers, families or groups of any size.  Our central location and homey ambiance also makes us a perfect fit for larger groups looking for a comfortable vacation rental in Courtenay or the Comox Valley.

Shantz Haus Hostel is just a short stroll away from the Comox Valley’s best specialty shops and restaurants, a museum and a modern art gallery.  We’re also on the doorstep of Mount Washington, Vancouver Island’s premiere alpine resort.  Whether you’re in search of Vancouver Island’s legendary wilderness or the cultural hotspots of the city of Courtenay, our gregarious staff is always eager to help you plan your Vancouver Island experience!

Join us at Shantz Haus, where adventure meets relaxation in the heart of the Comox Valley
