While Tofino’s setting may
be the prescription in itself, a new spa offers Ayurvedic therapies to enhance
the West Coast experience. Cable Cove Inn, perched above its private beach, looks
out to the open Pacific and owners Ram and Sonya Tumuluri have transformed their
once quaint bed and breakfast into an inn with healing properties. Get cozy in
one of the seven rooms—some with carved cedar beds—kitted out in Asian
silks and featuring fireplaces, deck-side hot tubs and the Cove’s all-natural
skin care line, Sattva. The newly opened Ashram spa combines massage techniques
with Ayurvedic treatments and yoga, for one-hour, half-day or weekend detoxification
therapies. For food therapy, book the lone table in the special dining cabin,
set above the tide line. Ram, also a trained chef, prepares three- to-five-course
dinners utilizing the area’s seasonal bounty. —Shelora
