Three nights at the Fogo Island Inn
Fogo Island, Newfoundland and Labrador
Donated by Fogo Island Inn
Fogo Island Inn, Newfoundland, sits on an island, off an island, at one of the four corners of the Earth. Commissioned by the Shorefast Foundation and designed by Newfoundland-born-and-raised architect Todd Saunders, the Inn has quickly garnered an international reputation for exceptional, embodied, place-specific hospitality and bold, thoughtful humanistic and contemporary design. Situated along Iceberg Alley, all 29 guest suites feature floor-to-ceiling windows that offer uninterrupted views of the wildest and most powerful ocean on the planet. The island’s still-wild world has caribou to track, hills of berries to forage, nature trails to explore, and countless birds and sea life to behold. This award- winning Inn is operated as a social business, is a community asset and 100% of the operating surpluses are reinvested into the community.
During your stay, you’ll enjoy a half-a-day island orientation with a community host and Fogo Island Inn’s Architecture at the Edge Itinerary. Be prepared for fresh perspectives and insights; stories and laughter and allow yourself to be oriented to this “Salty Narnia” by the people of the place. It’s exactly what you’d expect to find at one of the four corners of the Earth.
The stay is inclusive of transfers from Gander, Newfoundland airport, use of all facilities (contemporary art gallery, heritage library, digital cinema, rooftop saunas & hot tubs) and all meals (excluding alcohol) enjoyed in the Inn’s dining room, named among the top three “Best New Restaurants of Canada” by enRoute magazine in 2013.
