Celebrate in Nature this Holiday Season at Naturally Pacific Resort
Vancouver Island’s newest destination resort offers the perfect festive retreat
Full of holiday cheer, beautifully designed twinkling light displays welcome guests at Naturally Pacific Resort in Campbell River. Located on Vancouver Island’s sheltered east coast, the resort’s team is excited to ring in the property’s very first festive season, with seasonal decorations that mirror the natural beauty of the resort’s surroundings.
“The holidays are my favourite time of year and I’m thrilled to share our magical winter wonderland with both the Campbell River community and guests to the region,” says resort owner and managing director Amanda Mailman. “Our team has worked hard to bring so much warmth and festivity to different areas of the resort, full of wonder and seasonal cheer.”
Naturally Pacific Resort’s festive displays include decorated trees, natural wreaths and over-sized star structures in the lobby, Carve Kitchen & Meatery and Velocity Lounge & Driving Range, with shimmering gold lights and decorations in champagne, juniper and moss tones. Outside on the central pathway, a canopy of warm LED lights illuminate the exterior of the hotel, guiding guests towards eight cozy outdoor fire pits, the perfect spot for a festive cocktail.
Make the holidays extra special with an overnight stay and the resort team will be happy to take care of every meal. From an a-la-carte Christmas Day Brunch with Stuffed French Toast ($19) or Croque Madame ($25) to a set three course Christmas Dinner feast ($59) featuring Turkey Roulade, Seared Halibut or Maple Brined Beef Brisket.
