The remarkable Brentwood Bay Resort features an outdoor heated pool and whirlpool.
Brentwood Bay Resort – Extraordinary adults-only hotel nestled on the shores of Brentwood Bay with a west-coast style featuring expansive windows, casually elegant decor, and an exposed Cedar beam design. The hotel’s lush grounds are gorgeous and well-maintained. Amenities include a heated outdoor pool and hot tub open year-round (fully licensed), a full-service spa, yoga classes, and kayak/paddle boards for rent at the hotel’s marina. All guest rooms have ocean views, a gas fireplace, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a private balcony or patio overlooking Brentwood Bay. The Ocean Villas have two bedrooms, a massive bathroom, and a full kitchen. There are two excellent eateries: the Arbutus Room Restaurant and The Pub with sushi menus at both. Pets are allowed in select rooms. The hotel is in a rural area, dotted with farms and wineries, and is very close to Butchart Gardens and a short drive from downtown.
