Clayoquot Wilderness Retreat

In a remote spot off Vancouver Island in British Columbia, surrounded by rain forest, mountains, and beaches, the Clayoquot Wilderness Retreat first opened in 1998 as an overnight floating lodge experience; since then, it has grown into a luxury tent retreat. While the camp has a rugged outpost atmosphere, with huge stone fireplaces and a long wooden cookhouse, it’s an outpost with every possible luxury: from white linen tablecloths and polished silverware to soft comforters and high-thread-count bedding. There are two different kinds of luxury tent experience on offer. The original deluxe tents are built on raised platforms a little way from the main camp, and these enjoy comforts such as cozy Adirondack-style beds, wood-burning stoves, and antique furniture. The prospector-style luxury tents take it up another level, with in-floor heating and en suite bathrooms that have an indoor/outdoor shower. Guests book in for all-inclusive adventures that last three, five, or seven nights and include options for activities ranging from whale-watching to clay pigeon shooting.
