BC Travel Tuesday: Week 3 Tigh-Na-Mara Seaside Spa Resort
byWe are now onto the third installment of the 10-week BC Travel Tuesday contest I am running with backyardbc.com where we’re celebrating the best in local travel while offering up weekly giveaways for BC residents.
backyardbc is a new travel website designed specifically for residents of British Columbia. Essentially a “be a tourist in your own backyard” program, participating hotels & resorts offer residents of BC exclusive rates and specials, designed to motivate BCers to travel more within the Province. Each offer has its own unique reservation code, and all bookings are done directly with our hotel and resort partners. Visit backyardbc online, on Twitter, or Facebook and see more of BC!
The winner of “Week 2: Howe Sound Inn & Brewing” is Cliff (and he has been contacted by email). This week’s featured property is tucked away on 22 acres of seaside property among arbutus trees and sandy beaches on the Eastern side of Vancouver Island. I had the opportunity to visit Tigh-Na-Mara while on a girls getaway to the Island in 2009. The spa, the bistro, and the sunsets are pretty tough to beat.

Would love a chance to get away for my 10th wedding anniversary!!!! Tigh-na-Mara is a little piece of paradise that I’d like to make mine for 2 nights!!!!
After losing my Mom last year to cancer, my husband and I have been through a lot of pain, along with my 2 boys. This would be a wonderful way to reconnect with my hubbie of almost 22 years and do some healing at the same time! Thanks so much!!
Oh, I love it at Tigh-Na-Mara. Seriously people – this spa is the best on the island, not just because of the friendly service, and great skills, but that pool – ahhh… that pool. I have only been once, on a girlfriend get-away and it still rates as one of my best weekends. We loved the unlimited tapas while in our robes. I would love to head off here with the hubby.
Wow what a great get away!! Tigh Na Mara is beautiful
I love tigh na mara! Best spa ever!!!
I am a very busy mom of 3!

What an amazing looking place, would love to stay!
What a great way to promote Beautiful BC! I love the serenity and natural beautiful that the parksville/qualicum area offers its guests. It is right up near the top of my list of the most beautiful places I’ve ever visited, and would love an opportunity to spend a couple of days enjoying the amenities and surroundings at Tigh-Na-Mara. Please pick me!
Would love to win this weekend getaway for some sister time! Tigh-Na-Mara is amazing for a little rest & relaxation! ;D
My husband very thoughtfully surprised me with a night at the Tigh-Na-Mara for our 1st wedding anniversary. I was SO excited as I had never been before and was even more excited as he’d booked us for the mineral pool and full body mud treatments! My excitement quickly turned to disappointment when we checked in for our spa treatments and discovered that he hadn’t mentioned to them that I was 6 mths pregnant :(…
No mineral pool and no full body treatment for me. I did get a nice facial but still…I had to sit with my toes on the edge of the pool and then hear about how AMAZING his mud wrap was. How could something so wonderful turn into near torture!! Please give me the opportunity to have my turn :)))
The resort is an amazing place to stay. Great relaxation, great spa, ambience, etc. I have a wedding anniversary and birthday coming up – would be awesome to win this free trip.
I would LOVE to be the winner of a visit to Tigh-Na-Mara resort. To have a sleep over in a big bed, wake up refreshed and be able to look out at the ocean. Go for an enjoyable walk on the beach with my honey and then be pampered at the SPA, what more could a girl ask for? oh maybe some wine and chocolate dipped strawberries too. Thanks 🙂
Would love to be a tourist on my own Island.
ooooohh
It looks so peaceful there, would love to check it out!
This property looks so beautiful. Somewhere I have always wanted to go. Thank you.

Would LOVE to win this for me and my boyfriend, we went for his 25th birthday in July and really enjoyed ourselves.

He’s a hard worker and deserves a relaxing getaway, but not sure we can afford it again this year.
Awesome prize.
After a stressful year of university, I’d love to have the chance to sit back and relax!

Sounds lovely!
I love Tigh-na-Mara! I went there for an anniversary once and I took my daughter there with a good friend and her daughter once for the spa experience. I loved the Treetop tapas!
Vancouver Island has so much to offer BC residents. We live on the mainland but try to get over to the Island about once a year. Even with the Ferry prices climbing we have always found the trip worth the extra cost. As much as we would love to experience such a beautiful resort our budget tends to run in the camping price zone. Fortunately, there are a number of incredible parks that we have had the pleasure of visiting while over there. I recommend booking your site early as they fill up fast. One of my families favourite outing was the Horn Lake Caves
http://www.env.gov.bc.ca/bcparks/explore/parkpgs/horne_lk/
We spent a day scrambling, squeezing and splashing around the dark, spooky and very exciting tunnels with our guide. My kids still talk about it today and have all grown to young adults. All of whom still love traveling and camping with us all around the Province.
I love this place, it’s so lovely. Would love to visit again 🙂
I went here on a family trip when I was just 5 years old–I would love to go again!
It’s a beautiful resort!! I’d love to go again. 🙂
I’ve been driving past it for years, but have never been in. Yes please!
Would be so fun to back there. As a kid I remember camping there and then going to Rathtrevor Beach to go searching for Sand dollars. Would be nice to take my husband there for a weekend.
I would so love a couple of days spent by the ocean!
Pick me, Pick me! I’m irish!
the resort looks so beautiful 🙂 hope i can get a chance to visit!
firstly…*fingers crossed for the Canucks!* We could use a couple of days here after the stress of these last couple games!
So gorgeous!
I love Tigh-Na-Mara. We’ve had many staff parties, grad reunions, girls spa days, mineral pool days, walks through the property, restaurant, tapas, brunch….But I have never stayed at the resort.
My husband & I could really use a romantic get away as we have had a really rough time lately with work issues and both our parents sick and hospitalized (both on the road to recovery).
Would love a holiday close to home to go and recharge and rejuvenate – and maybe fit in a couples massage. Tigh Na Mara’s Grotto spa has the BEST massage and body wraps ever. Pedicures are awesome too!
This would be the perfect place for a long overdue Honeymoon that we never had!
gorgeous place… hope I win!
This looks exotic.
We got married here six years ago. It would make a wonderful trip for us too!!
Such a beautiful place – would love this getaway!
Looks like a great place!! Its amazing, the great places that BC has to offer!
Would love to win. Looks like an amazing place to stay!!
Work at BC Childrens Hospital and am so utterly in need of a getaway!
this place looks so fantastic. i could really use a vacay
I’ve given gifts to go here, but have never been lucky enough to stay here myself. Maybe now’s my time! 😉
Oh my goodness, I would LOVE to win this! Then again, who wouldn’t?
mmmmh this would make a wonderful 2nd honeymoon 🙂
What an incredible stay-cation this would be! I would bring my well deserving mother for sure! What a tigh-na-mara treat!

This looks amazing!
This would make the perfect mother’s day gift for my wife! We haven’t been on an overnight trip alone together since the kids were born (going on 10 years!)
Thanks!
