About Ancient Cedars Spa at the Wickaninnish Inn
Located on Vancouver Island's rugged west coast, the Wickaninnish Inn is surrounded by the ocean on three sides and an old growth forest on the fourth. Minutes from the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve and Clayoquot Sound, the Inn takes advantage of the stunning local environment with floor-to-ceiling windows in every guest room. The spa also has spectacular views, and the couples' treatment room is located on a deck directly over the water.

Like the rest of the Inn, the Ancient Cedars Spa blends rustic charm with luxurious amenities. Thalassotherapy, reflexology, hot stone massage, and facials are offered, and the facility contains a steam room, a patio, and an oceanfront treatment room where couples can receive massages.
Sacred Sea, one of the spa's signature services, begins with a full-body exfoliation followed by a session in the Bouvier Hydrotherapy Tub. Its 144 jets massage the bather, who soaks in a combination of marine elements and essential oils. A full-body massage and wrap in warm cotton blankets follows. Finally, a foot massage and stress-relieving scalp treatment end the treatment.

Rooms & Dining
Each of the 75 spacious guest rooms and suites has a fireplace, a private balcony, and floor-to-ceiling picture windows, which offer sweeping ocean views. In keeping with the Inn's commitment to sustaining the environment, the furniture has been fashioned from recycled old-growth fir, western red cedar, and driftwood. The décor incorporates textures found in nature, with a wool sisal carpet, natural stone tile, and rough-hewn cedar mantelpieces. As a final touch, in each room there is a handmade, individually numbered driftwood chair, by the artist Maxwell Newhouse. There are also 30 guest rooms in a separate building named Wickaninnish On the Beach.
The Pointe Restaurant sits on a rocky promontory and provides 240-degree views of the Pacific Ocean. It has 20-foot-ceilings, a circular wood burning fireplace, and hand-cut and -shaped cedar posts and beams. Fresh coastal seafood, locally grown produce, and an extensive selection of Pacific Northwest wines are on the menu. After dinner, guests often relax at the On-the-Rocks Bar and Lounge.

Activities
The Wickaninnish Inn is a paradise for nature lovers, and the concierge can arrange tours with local naturalists. The Inn is on the edge of The Pacific Rim National Park Reserve, the largest remaining temperate rainforest. While hiking, biking, or kayaking through the park, guests can enjoy the distinctive local flora and fauna. Five-hundred-year-old Sitka Spruce, some of which are ten feet in diameter and 300 feet tall, are a common sight. Between March and May, 21,000 Pacific Gray whales migrate from Mexico to Alaska and often make a pit stop in the food-rich waters surrounding the Wickaninnish Inn. The resort is located directly on Chesterman Beach, a resting place for bald eagles and ospreys during their long migrations.
