 From Spa to Ahhhhh!

This spa sampler itinerary offers a variety of unique West Coast treatments using local ingredients and techniques. The three day itinerary explores both day and resort property spas and is designed to be flexible to fit in any incentive program.

Day 1:

Rise and shine with Yoga stretches on the lawn of your hotel overlooking Victoria’s beautiful Inner or Outer Harbour. Then fuel up with a healthy kick-start breakfast as you discuss your spa menu itinerary, which is sure to leave you feeling relaxed, rejuvenated and refreshed.

Your first order of business for the day is to become one with the nature of Vancouver Island. You will do this by experiencing the three elements of the local environment; ocean, coastline and rainforest. Your treatment will begin with a sea-salt scrub, followed by a fragrant pine hydrotherapy bath and detoxifying mud wrap and mask. The grand finale is a massage using locally harvested lavender.

After some free time, the afternoon brings a customized humorous, healthy and happy walking tour. Explore Victoria’s Old Town and Chinatown to learn about years gone by and the city’s former residents, some of whom are still with us in spirit. Of course no tour would be complete without time to delve into Victoria’s unique shops and boutiques along the way. 

Follow the spiritual journey through the First Peoples Gallery during the evening’s reception at the Royal British Columbia Museum. You will experience the First Nations people's heritage and legacies as they live on in Victoria and on Vancouver Island. Enjoy a First Nations Feast Night seated amongst the totems and masks while listening to legends and witnessing samples of ceremonies. Your First Nations experience will add a special cultural flavour to your island visit.

Day 2:

A surprise spa adventure awaits you this morning as you are swept away by limousine to one of Victoria’s many incredible day spas. An organic breakfast followed by a spa experience of your choice will be the morning’s only order of business.

Regroup together for a scenic journey up Vancouver Island to your next spa destination. Along the way you will hike through a West Coast rainforest at Goldstream Provincial Park. This will be followed by a stop at a world famous Resort for a locally grown gourmet lunch paired with Vancouver Island wines.

Spend the afternoon at one of the most luxurious and unique European-style spas in Western Canada. Featuring rock waterfalls, mineral pools, treatment rooms, an esthetic studio, relaxation areas and private lounges, it will exceed the needs of even the most avid spa enthusiast!

Watch the sunset and let the night while away at a Bonfire Beach BBQ. Afterwards, take a late night soak in a hot tub before falling asleep in your luxurious suite listening to the sound of the waves.
