"Set on the ocean’s edge, in a spectacular natural setting on a 
beautiful island, the Galiano Oceanfront 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
 
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.
