Actually, you know, Tofino would be a great idea; here's the webpage for the Wickaninnish Inn:
http://www.wickinn.com/

Can't get much closer to the ocean than that! And the food is supposed to be spectacular (I have a cookbook with some recipes from there, and the ones I've tried are really wonderful).

Edited to add: no dolphin swimming, but lots of whale-watching...and there are dozens of resorts in Tofino, if the Wick looks too pricey...
