Fogo Island Inn was designed by Newfoundland-born, Norway-based architect Todd Saunders. The 43,000 square-foot Inn is perched on stilts and hugs the North Atlantic coastline, affording all 29 suites with floor-to-ceiling views of the sea and sky. All of the guest suites feature floor-to-ceiling windows that offer uninterrupted views of the North Atlantic. Guest room sizes vary from 350 to 1 100 square feet, with suites on the third and fourth floors all including wood-burning stoves. The ceilings of the rooms on the fourth floor follow the dramatic slope of the roof, resulting in the three most easterly rooms enjoying double volume spaces with the sleeping area located on the mezzanine. Great care was taken to provide exceptional sound-proofing in order to ensure that guests hear only the sounds of nearby ocean waves. All of the Inn’s rooms were created using only natural materials such as wood, wool, cotton, and linen. The only plastic in the guest rooms is the telephone.

It’s hard to explain the way in which the Fogo Island Inn and its warm staff make an impression on your soul. The hotel is much more than the bricks and mortar from which it is built. I felt welcomed by the kindness of strangers and left a little bit of my heart there. I travelled with my autistic son who was met with kindness and who states it’s one of the best places he’s stayed, All of the staff went above and beyond. The rooms, whilst not the biggest or swankiest, make you feel instantly at home and it’s hard to draw yourself away from the window, especially when you are greeted with an ever-evolving iceberg just off the rocks. I did manage to do a boat trip to the Little Fogo Islands and to see a giant berg which was incredible, When the captain sang a sea-shanty on the way home I momentarily believed I was from Newfoundland. You get assigned a community host who drives you round the island and shares stories of their life. This experience is far more than a stay in a hotel. It’s a brief immersion in the life of the Island. I always thought it would be a once-only trip. Now I am imagining what it would be like to visit in other seasons. I’ll have to start saving. For now I have my lovely quilt to remind me of the place.

Happiest place we have ever stayed in and I have told everyone they need to get there for sure. Congratulations on providing a truly outstanding place to visit and enjoy in our beautiful country.

We are fortunate that we are able to travel the world and stay, when available, at top rated properties. Fogo Island Inn rates as one of the best we have stayed. From a spectacular view, amazing service and outstanding food, it is a place one does not want to leave. The island offers very well mark trails yet, what makes the place special, are its people: beyond friendly.

The perfect balance of professional and personal service made our stay exceptional. The staff remembered our preferences from day one, and the little surprises (like complimentary afternoon tea) added such charm. The beds were cloud-like, and the bathroom amenities were top-notch. The lobby's ambient music and scent cre

There's something special about a place that makes you feel both energized and relaxed. The staff struck that perfect balance between being attentive and giving space when needed. The rooms were thoughtfully designed with both aesthetics and functionality in mind. The breakfast options were diverse and fresh, and the evening ambiance was simply magical.
