In 2023, Canadians sought relaxation, fresh air, and hydrotherapy in their spa experiences, with Grotto Spa at Tigh-Na-Mara Seaside Spa Resort on Vancouver Island claiming the No. 1 spot, according to Craig Oliver, president of Spas of America.

The Top 50 Canada Spas awards showcased spa and wellness offerings from nine provinces, with Ontario leading with 19 and British Columbia and Quebec with nine each. Alberta had seven, Nova Scotia two, and Manitoba, Newfoundland, Prince Edward Island, and Saskatchewan each had one.

The Grotto Spa’s recognition coincides with the unveiling of its $2.5 million renovation, introducing an elevated experience with four cedar barrel saunas in an outdoor garden patio. Launching in mid-February, “The Grotto” aims to enhance the guest journey within the spa, offering a multifaceted experience surrounded by picturesque landscapes. The outdoor patio, beside the mineral pool, creates a serene oasis with cedar barrel saunas, outdoor showers, and scenic surroundings, fostering a tranquil sauna garden. Encouraging a two-hour communal journey, The Grotto promotes connections in a social environment while allowing for a personalized wellness experience amidst nature’s healing elements. Inspired by a global quest for optimal spa experiences, it provides a technology-free space for guests to be present and disconnect from digital distractions, as highlighted by Brian Cocks, managing director of Tigh-Na-Mara Seaside Spa Resort.
