Perched on a promontory beneath sounds of crashing waves, The Wickaninnish Inn, a member of the exclusive Relais & Chateaux portfolio of properties, is located on the rugged west coast of picturesque Vancouver Island. With just 75 rooms and a wonderfully remote location, the inn truly allows its guests to temporarily retreat, leaving stress and obligation far behind. Remarkable guest rooms feature gas fireplaces and balconies overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Sequester yourself behind closed doors and enjoy comforts and conveniences - from the private bar and beverage station to the library of tomes and selected music.

Just spent my birthday long weekend at the Wickaninnish Inn - and I absolutely loved it. The level of attentive care and hospitality is unlike anything I have experienced before. Warm and genuine - my partner and I were made to feel welcomed immediately. The service never felt performative or false - but mindful and genuine. The staff were always engaged, friendly, and knowledgeable. You could feel that the spirit of hospitality informed every aspect of how they worked, The room we got was beyond gorgeous - double height with unending views of Chesterman Beach. The access to tidal pools and sandy beaches was unparalleled. The food at the Pointe was a real highlight - and morning coffee and pastries at the Driftwood Cafe was the perfect start to exploring the beach. The Inn really seems to attract a certain kind of guest - everyone was friendly and just so happy to be at Wickaninnish, and appreciative of how special it is. People who understand that real luxury is not the showy bits - but in the attention to all the right little details that add up to a magical whole. I hope to come back soon!

Our stay at the Wickaninnish Inn was an absolutely wonderful experience from beginning to end\. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel like special guests\. Being greeted by name by the valet, who immediately took care of our car and luggage, was a lovely first impression\. By the time we reached our room, our luggage had been delivered and even our jackets were hanging in the closet\. Throughout our stay, our room was kept immaculate and thoughtfully stocked with every amenity\. The food was exceptional, particularly our memorable gourmet dinner in the dining room\. Our server was knowledgeable, gracious and attentive, providing outstanding service without ever being intrusive\. What impressed us most was the genuine warmth and professionalism of every staff member\. Everyone seemed happy, welcoming and eager to help\. Nothing was ever too much trouble\. The Wickaninnish has created something truly special\. Thank you to the entire team for making our holiday such a memorable and exceptional experience\.

What an amazing hotel. Not only gorgeous on the outside but when you go in the staff is so welcoming. Darcy at the Front desk gave us one amazing recommendation after another. Also The Point restaurant is definitely amazing especially for breakfast. This place is so good that it deserves to have the word amazing used three times in the post.

We had a fabulous stay here. The location on Chesterman Beach is stunning. Sea views, beautiful sandy beach for long beach walks and crashing waves. The sunset from our room was spectacular. The hotel is relaxed, warm and friendly and nothing was too much trouble and the service was excellent. Our room was tastefully decorated in warm tones with lots of wood and spotlessly clean. We had everything in it we could possibly need - and even down to wellies, raincoats, beach towels and blankets and much more .. The food was very good and we had breakfast each day, ate on the bar a couple of times and had dinner once. The restaurant is expensive but I guess you are paying for the stunning views too. We would stay here again in a trice and wish we lived nearer!

The Wickaninnish Inn had been on my bucket list for awhile, and we finally got around to heading to Tofino. The hotel did not disappoint! The setting is beautiful, the rooms (albeit a tiiiiiny bit dated) are extremely well equipped and the beds are very comfortable. We had great experiences with the housekeeping staff, the staff in the Pointe and Driftwood, and the spa! It was quite peaceful and the setting is beautiful on Chesterman beach. It is a bit remote, but that's exactly why we went there. We enjoyed hiking, beaches, biking, spa and some really wonderful meals. I would go back in a heartbeat!
