Four Seasons Costa Rica

Costa Ricans have a wonderful saying, pura vida, meaning “pure life”. The spectacular Four Seasons Resort in Costa Rica has embraced this idealistic adage.

Fair Victoria

With its spectacular setting, great shopping, and wonderful food and drinks, Victoria is made for the weekend. By seaplane, from harbour to harbour, the historic city is less than 30 minutes away from Vancouver.

Sonora Resort

A picture perfect setting for a photographic journey.

Spot Prawn Season

For the next six weeks, B.C. spot prawns take centre stage on the menus of many of the city’s top restaurants. The first fresh prawns arrived at False Creek Fishermen’s Wharf this past Saturday with much fanfare.

Notch8 at the Hotel Vancouver

Notch8, Fairmont Hotel Vancouver’s refurbished restaurant and bar, is a stately nod to the property’s past.

Palm Springs Art Museum

With Palm Springs being lauded as having the world’s greatest concentration per capita of mid-century modern architecture, it was only fitting the museum increased its commitment to design with its Architecture and Design Centre, opened last fall.

Whale Watching Season

A recent visit to Tofino was capped off with whale watching, a quintessential B.C. experience.

Wolf in the Fog

Don’t let the surfboard sunburst, mismatched plates, or plaid-shirted servers fool you. Tofino’s newest eatery Wolf in the Fog is anything but casual.

Railtown Cafe

It’s hard not to want to try everything.

Pacific Sands Beach Resort

Vacationers seeking surf, sand, and solitude on Vancouver Island’s west coast need look no further than Pacific Sands Beach Resort, located just under seven kilometres from the village of Tofino.
