WICKANINNISH INN RATES AMONG WORLD'S BEST
November 6, 2001
Conde Nast readers give West Coast resort top marks
The verdict is in and, once again, the Wickaninnish Inn has been rated among the best in the world by discerning travelers. In November's Conde Nast Reader's Survey, the Wickaninnish was rated 6th among the 30 top North American resorts, the highest rating given to any Canadian property and the top Relais & Chateaux property in all of North America. The Inn adds this to a long list of kudos, including being named the top resort in Canada and among the top 50 resorts worldwide in the 2001 ZagatSurvey.
Built from the ground up for storm watching where the rainforest meets the ocean, the Wickaninnish Inn has capitalized on the rich surrounding land and seascape, offering storm watch and whale watching tours, as well as facilitating a variety of other outdoor activities. Its Pointe Restaurant serves award winning coastal cuisine overlooking a 240-degree panoramic view of ocean and beaches. The Ancient Cedars Spa offers an oasis of restorative effects with such signature treatments as the Sacred Sea Thalassotherapy and Hot Stone Massage.
Every room is unusually large (min. 420 sq. ft.), features an ocean view, soaker bathtub and fireplace for optimum viewing, comfort and ambience. When added to the potent mix of attention to detail and caring service, the unbeatable combination brings people back time after time and garners numerous awards for this luxurious wilderness retreat.
