Once you arrive on Galiano Island, you may never want to leave. The same goes for Bodega. The resort has two breathtaking properties just minutes away from each other. There’s Bodega Ridge, nestled on a sprawling 22-acres and there’s Bodega Cove, which is closer to the water. Both are charming in their own distinctive ways.

Bodega is definitely the place to go if you’re looking to be present and for time to seemingly stand still.
