Every room has a private ocean-view patio or balcony at this boutique resort in a tiny seaside village. Hand-made furniture, fireplaces, king beds topped with crisp Italian linens and sensuous black bedspreads, and original local art decorate each of the clean-lined, earth-toned rooms. Slate-lined bathrooms have jetted tubs and multihead showers, and shuttered windows bring ocean views to the tub. Handy to Butchart Gardens (a five-minute hop on the resort's water taxi) and to local wineries, Brentwood Bay is known for the wine-based treatments at its lavish spa. The ocean-view restaurant and casual marine pub serve locally raised fare. Marine ecocruises, kayak tours, and a dive center are among the many distractions.
