WICKANINNISH INN - Tofino, British Columbia

Located on Vancouver Island’s magnificently rugged west coast, the Wickaninnish Inn is minutes from the picturesque township of Tofino. Tofino is a relaxed, casual place completely given to unwinding and getting back to nature. It is an intriguing mix of wide sandy beaches and old growth forests, fishing boats and whale-watching zodiacs, loggers and surfers, casual eateries and eclectic fine dining. The region is a year-round destination where you can witness the drama of a winter storm, bask in the warmth of a summer day, or explore nature’s magic in a tidal pool. The Inn is situated on a rocky promontory at the westernmost point of Chesterman Beach, at the gateway to Pacific Rim National Park Reserve and the renowned beauty of Clayoquot Sound. Surrounded by the ocean on three sides with an old growth forest as a backdrop, the Wickaninnish Inn offers panoramic views of the open Pacific, nearby islands and the natural sweep of spectacular Chesterman Beach. The artistic elements contributed by a variety of artists, artisans and master carver, Henry Nolla, combine art, culture and nature together throughout the Inn. Each one of the 75 spacious guest rooms and suites provides ocean- and beach views, fireplaces, deep soaker bathtubs, duvet comforters and private balconies. The hotel’s attentive, anticipatory service is sure to exceed every expectation. The addition of Ancient Cedars Spa has elevated the stay at the Wickaninnish Inn to new heights of relaxation.
