Tucked within the secluded inlets of Clayoquot Sound near the city of Tofino, the all-inclusive Clayoquot Wilderness Resorts treat guests to luxurious accommodations amid snowcapped mountains, lush forests, and pristine waters. Clayoquot Wilderness Resorts operates two properties: Floating Resort at Quait Bay and Wilderness Outpost at Bedwell River. The Floating Resort at Quait Bay pampers guests with three gourmet meals per day, afternoon hors d'oeuvres, access to the Healing Grounds Spa, an on-deck hot tub, and a First Nations Salmon Feast celebrating the native culture of Clayoquot Sound. The Wilderness Outpost at Bedwell River appeals to more outdoorsy types, with accommodations consisting of ten canvas guest tents inspired by the Adirondack Great Camps built during the Gilded Age. The canvas exterior belies a plush interior, tastefully appointed with antique furnishings, modern washrooms, and propane-powered woodstoves that are operated using a remote control. Guests at either of the two properties can indulge in a wide range of activities and day trips. Hike through centuries-old stands of cedars and moss-carpeted thickets. Kayak alongside miles of rugged coastline. Soak in the seven geo-thermal pools of Hot Springs Cove. Go on a wildlife tour, observing whales, black bears, eagles, and otters. Hop on a mountain bike or an endurance horse and travel on trails through old-growth forests. Or simply relax in a hammock and enjoy the serenity of Vancouver Island's majestic west coast.
