“Nestled on Vancouver Island, the resort stands out as a place designed for both family fun and tranquil escapes; I think its extensive grounds invite exploration and relaxation. Its Grotto Spa, though I have read mixed opinions, remains a focal point, promising unique treatments, while dining options aim to capture the essence of West Coast flavors. With private beach access, I believe the resort leverages its location for memorable oceanfront experiences.”
