RESORT BUZZ Shoppers!

It all came to a wave-like crescendo with an auction at the Tofino Boardwalk Gala, and we were there with bells on, winning 3 surfboards. Check out what we did with them...

RESORT TEAM SPOTLIGHT Bryce Is In The House Recent recruit, Bryce Mclean, has only been a Houseman in our Housekeeping Department for a few months, but he's already making his mark with guest accolades and votes for Five Star Employee of the Month. Originally from North Vancouver, BC,  it was a love for surfing and camping that lured him here.
