An icon of refined coastal elegance, the Oak Bay Beach Hotel stands proudly on the shores of South Oak Bay, a neighborhood rich in British charm and stunning views of the Salish Sea. As you step into the Grand Lobby, the ocean sprawls before you; sunlight dances on the waters, complemented by the inviting warmth of the expansive fireplace. This entrance doesn't merely welcome guests - it invites them into a world of opulence and artistry, accentuated by a curated selection of contemporary works from the Madrona Gallery adorning the walls. With décor that artfully marries modern sensibilities and historical elements, this hotel sets the bar for where luxury meets locality. A rooftop deck offers a dizzying panorama of Mount Baker and the Olympic Mountains, while the artful spaces beckon with promise of indulgence and serenity. Each experience here feels crafted and thoughtful, from the sumptuous dining at the Boathouse Kitchen & Bar to the invigoration found at the award-winning Boathouse Spa, replete with its eucalyptus-infused sauna and rejuvenating treatments. Every detail conspires to offer a gentle embrace for both the senses and soul.
