WELCOME

On behalf of the McDiarmid family and our entire team, welcome to the Wickaninnish Inn. We invite you to explore Tofino and our amazing Clayoquot Sound setting while at the same time enjoying our Relais & Chateaux service, accommodation, cuisine, and spa services.

The Inn is a place completely given to unwinding and getting back to nature. Take a leisurely stroll down Chesterman Beach, breathe in the fresh salt air, and enjoy the natural rhythm of Mother Nature as it unfolds around you. Whether you spend your time walking the variety of trails within Pacific Rim National Park, kayaking the quiet nooks and crannies of Clayoquot Sound, viewing the magnificent Humpback and Grey whales that visit us every year or just watching it all happen outside your window, there are many ways to make the most of your time with us.

We also look forward to welcoming you to The Pointe Restaurant and On the Rocks Bar to savour spectacular ocean vistas, the warm and inviting ambiance, and our refined west coast cuisine.  Executive Chef Carmen Ingham offers an experience straight from the hearts and minds of our talented culinary brigade; serving breakfast, lunch and dinner with menus showcasing fresh coastal seafood, Vancouver Island farm fresh ingredients accompanied by a selection of Pacific Northwest wines and an excellent cocktail list.  The Driftwood Café located on the beach level of the Beach Building also offers a cozy setting for a morning coffee and house made croissant by the windows looking down Chesterman Beach, on the patio or by the fireplace. Offering a daily selection of house made breads, pastries and sandwiches the Driftwood Café is also open for breakfast, lunch or even a light snack and a glass of wine in the afternoon.

To thoroughly relax and enjoy the best of what the earth and ocean have to offer from a whole new perspective, I highly recommend a visit to our Ancient Cedars Spa.  Combining tranquility with the finest in Spa therapies the Ancient Cedars Spa will surely bring balance and harmony to your body, mind, and soul.

As a proud member of the Relais & Chateaux family, since 1997, we are committed to providing you with a most relaxing and magical experience.  If we can enhance your visit in any way, please feel free to speak with any member of our team.

Kind Regards,
