Where coastal surroundings, meaningful connections, and inspirational experiences make meetings feel different.
What makes a great meeting destination? Beyond the conference facilities and accommodations, it’s the opportunity to bring people together on the Infinite Coast, inspire new ideas, and create experiences that extend beyond the agenda.
Located on Vancouver Island in Parksville, British Columbia, Tigh-Na-Mara Seaside Spa Resort & Conference Centre offers a refreshing alternative to traditional city conference hotels. Set on 22 acres of forested, oceanfront property, this independent resort combines professional meeting facilities with the relaxed atmosphere of a West Coast retreat.
Meetings With Room to Connect
With over 10,000 square feet of flexible conference space, Tigh-Na-Mara is an ideal destination for corporate retreats, association conferences, leadership gatherings, and incentive programs of up to 200 attendees.
Natural light, multiple breakout rooms, and experienced event professionals support productive meetings, while the surrounding property offers opportunities to connect outside the boardroom.
Imagine an evening gathering around a beachside fire, team barbecue among the trees, or private reception in one of the resort’s rustic cottage cul-de-sacs. These shared experiences help turn a conference into a memorable retreat.
A Complete Resort Experience
With 192 log-crafted accommodations, including modern ocean-view suites, rustic cottages, and spa bungalows, Tigh-Na-Mara enables attendees to enjoy the comforts of a coastal getaway. The resort’s dining experiences, recreation amenities, and outdoor gathering spaces provide everything needed for a multiday event in one convenient location.
For an added wellness component, the award-winning Grotto Spa offers group experiences, exclusive buyouts, a mineral pool, cedar barrel saunas, and a coastal cold rinse. Delegates even can enjoy the distinctive experience of dining in their spa robes at Treetop with a nine-course chef-curated dinner.
More Than a Conference
Beyond the resort, the Parksville Qualicum Beach region offers opportunities for golf, kayaking, hiking, and authentic Vancouver Island adventures.
Accessible via Nanaimo and Comox Valley airports, car/foot ferries, seaplanes, or helicopter, Tigh-Na-Mara welcomes groups from across the Pacific Northwest. As a Biosphere Certified resort, sustainability and community connections are also part of the experience.
At Tigh-Na-Mara, a meeting is an opportunity to reconnect with colleagues, experience Vancouver Island, and return home relaxed with plenty of stories to tell.
