Property Details

"Set on the ocean’s edge", in a spectacular natural setting on a beautiful island, the Galiano Inn and Spa is British Columbia’s best kept secret. Close to Vancouver, Victoria and the U.S. border, the Inn and Spa is conveniently located 15 minutes by float plane or 1 hour by ferry from the mainland, yet is a world away from city life. Truly unique, the Inn is a small intimate retreat with a personal touch, yet has all the services of a large 5* resort.

At Galiano Island’s only oceanfront inn, you will enjoy beautiful ocean views from every room. The rooms are peaceful and serene, with ocean views, open beam ceilings, private terraces or balconies, and floor-to-ceiling ledgerock, wood-burning fireplaces. The rooms have a “spa” atmosphere: soft, inviting colours, king and queen beds, silk or down filled duvets; and all have luxurious ensuites all with spa or soaker tubs, separate glass-enclosed showers, European tile baths, and 24kt gold fixtures. The rooms feature many extras to make your room so comfortable you will not want to leave: luxurious robes, flat-screen cable TV and DVD players (hidden discretely in the fireplace), wireless internet, CD players with a selection of local music, mini-bars, in-room coffee and tea service, refrigerators. To complete the spa experience, there is our own “Madrona spa table”, again discretely hidden in the wall, it appears at the touch of a button, for you to have a massage by one of our qualified spa technicians or perhaps you want to use the instructional dvd to learn massage and get in touch with the special person in your life…a unique, one-of-a-kind experience.

The romantic setting is best enjoyed from a window-side table in Atrevida Restaurant. Atrevida, which means “bold and daring” in Spanish, focuses on fresh, local ingredients, combined with local award-winning wines, all in a fabulous, eclectic style. You will enjoy this modern approach to cuisine, while relaxing by the stone fireplace, in a room that is redolent with old world touches: expansive polished wood floors, wrought iron features, lots of stone and glass, and of course, the view, yet captures all of the beauty of West Coast architecture designed by the owner.

Madrona del Mar Spa: immerse yourself in the spa experience. A fabulously luxurious spa and wellness retreat situated on the ocean’s edge….you will choose from a full menu of spa treatments that you can enjoy in our luxury steam rooms: body treatments, sea algae and Moor mud wraps, Vichy showers. Find the ultimate in relaxation in our special Mediterranean Sea mineral flotation bath. Bodywork, facials, manicures and pedicures, massage treatments, and of course our oceanside jacuzzi.

Or just relax by the fireplace and listen to the quiet. The Galiano Inn and Spa has everything to make your stay luxurious, while you enjoy the abundance of nature that makes Galiano Island such a special destination.
