Clayoquot Wilderness Lodge

You arrive by seaplane or not at all, which sets the tone immediately. Clayoquot is a canvas-tent wilderness resort on Vancouver Island's Pacific coast, where 25 furnished tents on cedar walkways split the difference between a British expedition and a genuinely comfortable bed. The Cookhouse serves open-fire meals built around coastal ingredients, a snooker table waits in its own tent after dinner, and spa tents handle the rest. It holds a Michelin 3 Keys distinction.
