ROCKWATER SECRET COVE RESORT INTRODUCES ELEGANT TENTHOUSE SUITES
HALFMOON BAY, BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA: If the thought of drifting off to sleep in a treetop tent excites your inner child but surfaces fears of ‘roughing it’, look no further than the Rockwater Tenthouse Suites. Inspired by nature, this luxurious new development at Rockwater Secret Cove Resort on BC's Sunshine Coast offers guests the pristine views and natural surroundings that only tent camping can offer, without the need to sacrifice comfort or luxury.
The second phase of six units has now been constructed, with a total of 13 tents operational as of April 2007.
Accessed from a 1500’ treetop boardwalk, the 13 private Tenthouse Suites bring a new meaning to the term ‘high class’. Nestled among the Arbutus trees with a clear view of the Pacific Ocean, these penthouse-style tents are built with luxury and comfort in mind. Owners Kevin Toth and Peter Ruben conceived the vision for the Tenthouse Suites, then hired world-renowned interior designer Lucille Fares to use her flair to turn that vision into a reality. Each suite features heated slate floors, hydrotherapy tubs, private fireplaces, Japanese-inspired shoji screens, and king-size beds. A private balcony completes the Tenthouses, each furnished with quality loungers from which to soak in the pristine sunsets or starry nights.
For guests who want to keep their feet closer to the ground, additional accommodations are available in one, two and three bedroom oceanside cabins, along with rooms in the main lodge.
While guests may be happy to laze away their holidays inside their treetop sanctuaries, a resort full of activities and amenities awaits on the ground. From beachcombing the shoreline to strolling through old growth cedar forests, choices for places to explore are abundant. More active pursuits available onsite (or nearby) include kayaking, mountain biking, horseback riding, and golfing. Rockwater’s guest amenities include a spa, swimming pool, meeting facilities, outdoor sun decks, library, and lounge. A restaurant featuring West Coast dishes caters to guests’ culinary desires, with dinners highlighted by sunsets over Malaspina Strait.
Rockwater is open year round, and can be accessed via floatplane directly to the dock or by BC Ferry service to Langdale followed by a 60-minute scenic drive along the coastal highway. Guests arriving by yacht are welcome to moor at Secret Cove Marina, a full service deep-water marina with 150 berths, located a short drive from the Resort. Reservations for moorage are required, and the Resort offers a shuttle service.
Room rates for the Tenthouse Suites begin at $210CDN per night including breakfast, while rates in the oceanview rooms start at $125CDN per night including breakfast. A variety of special packages are is offered, including a Princess Louisa Inlet Tour Package, which features a six-hour marine tour to the renowned inlet and a gourmet picnic shore lunch.
