Unwind in pure comfort
The Hope Villa
At Hope Villa, we want you to experience a new form of living, where river and forest unite to allow you to slow down, practice gratitude, and relax. Escape to breathtaking forest views from the comfort of our meticulously designed private villa, complete with its own personal cedar sauna and beautiful, spacious bathrooms designed for complete comfort.
The design embraces the Japandi style, blending key elements of Japanese simplicity and harmony with Scandinavian minimalism and warmth. This approach highlights the seamless integration with nature. Large sliding glass windows and extended 10-foot ceilings offer unparalleled views of the beautiful Canadian wilderness, allowing you to fully immerse in the surrounding nature in a truly unparalleled way.
Step onto the covered riverfront veranda or unwind inside our custom-made cedar sauna, where the peaceful atmosphere embraces you. It's a perfect moment of quiet tranquility, with the roaring Coquihalla River and wild mountain forest as your breathtaking backdrop.
This was my second visit, and I fell in love even more this trip. The natural beauty is just incredible. Sitting on the covered deck listening to and watching the roaring river is soul soothing.

Sauna glow, intimate moments
Relax, Unwind Yourself
The entire villa was purposefully designed to make your group's experience unique, independently of the season and weather. Oversized windows open to a large covered deck with stunning views of the endless river, the rugged mountain valley, and the deep green forest.
Watch the stunning sunset and its many colors and forms, spot different wildlife on their migratory routes, watch bald eagles soar above, marvel at the force of the mountain storm, or simply breathe in the natural scents of forest and river and slow down at the rhythm of the changing environment. To elevate your experience, the villa features multiple beautiful, spacious bathrooms and a custom-made cedar sauna designed with direct forest views.

Forest meets rushing river
Hope Villa was created as a haven to allow a new form of living, a slow and silent living, where time stands still, and nature speaks to your senses in all its forms. Unwind, slow down breath deeply and relax.
