Wilderness close enough to reach, far enough to truly rest & reset.
A private oceanfront retreat on the Sunshine Coast with four residential-style suites ranging from 600–900 sq ft, 425 feet of shoreline, old-growth forest, cedar sauna, hot tub, ocean plunge, and space to fully exhale
Not a hotel. Not a spa.
Something closer to home.
Villa Sol is where people come not to go somewhere — but to recover. To sleep deeply, breathe ocean air, and remember what it feels like to have nowhere to be. Ninety minutes from Vancouver. A world away from everything else.

Some mornings, you don't need to go anywhere but here.
At Villa Sol, the ocean isn’t just a view — it’s alive.
Our shoreline regularly welcomes humpback whales, Bigg’s killer whales, seals, sea lions, otters, and soaring eagles. Many guests have experienced unforgettable encounters right from the decks, the hot tub, and even the living room windows.
Just offshore, the Sunshine Coast Underwater Listening Station captures the living soundscape of the Malaspina Strait — from whale calls to the quiet hum of passing boats. This project, recently featured on CBC, has made Villa Sol one of the rare places in British Columbia where nature reveals itself both above and below the surface.
Here, you don’t have to chase wildlife. Nature comes to you.

What Guests Are Saying
“During our stay, we experienced unforgettable activities, including a sunset yoga and meditation session overlooking the water. As if that wasn't magical enough, a pod of orcas passed by right in front of us. It was such an extraordinary moment that we're still amazed it really happened. We wholeheartedly recommend this stay to absolutely anyone — it's so close to Vancouver, yet wonderfully private and fully immersed in nature. An experience we'll never forget.”
Brent, Vancouver
“Every detail was filled with warmth and care. From the cozy glow of the fireplace to the outdoor hot tub where the ocean stretched out before us — everything felt magical, almost unreal. Their kind gesture of sharing fresh salmon they had caught themselves was just the sweetest touch. This place touched our hearts, and we already know — we'll be back again for sure.”
Vaspar, Vancouver
“We were even able to catch some humpback whales during one of our hot tub sessions! This location really connected us with the wildlife and gave us a huge break from city life. By far one of the most relaxing vacations we have ever taken — from the breathtaking views and amazing hospitality we were left speechless.”
Priya, Abbotsford
Sound has a way of bringing us back to ourselves.
Private and small-group crystal alchemy sound journeys in our oceanfront experience room. Each session is intuitive and responsive—shaped by the space, the people in it, and what is present in the moment.
Some guests come to deeply rest. Others come to reconnect with themselves after periods of stress, transition, burnout, or emotional overwhelm. The experience is gentle, immersive, and designed to support nervous system regulation, reflection, and stillness through sound, vibration, and intentional pause.
Sessions are available for Villa Sol guests, private groups, retreats, and special gatherings.
