Indigenous-owned B.C. resort named to list of top 15 resorts in the world
You don’t have to leave B.C. in order to visit one of the top 15 resorts in the world.
Klahoose Wilderness Resort, an Indigenous-owned property set in Desolation Sound, has been named among the top 15 destinations on AFAR’s annual Stay List.
The travel list, which started in 2019, judges properties on elements such as design, comfort and sustainability. Klahoose Wilderness Resort is joined on the list by Wildflower Farms, Auberge Resorts Collection, a farm retreat in Upstate New York, Villa Passalacqua, a hotel in Lake Como, Italy and other noteworthy international holiday hot spots.
“In it, we showcase properties that strive to tread lightly on the land by reducing energy use, waste, and water consumption. Others on the list foster cultural exchange between visitors and residents. And still others use biophilic design to connect us more deeply with nature,” Jennifer Flowers, senior deputy editor, said in a news release.
