Fodor's Expert Review The Westin Bear Mountain Golf Resort & Spa, Victoria

Two Nicklaus Design golf courses are the draw at this resort about 30 minutes northwest of the city center—two hotel buildings, several restaurants, a spa, and an extensive health club (with tennis, bikes, yoga, a pool, hot tub, and infrared sauna) form the core of the resort village. Rooms and suites in the Clubhouse and Fairway buildings are large, with slate bathroom floors, soft green and gray earth tones, and large shared balconies; suites have full kitchens and electric fireplaces. The on-site Callisto Restaurant, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the fairway, serves west coast fare, much locally sourced.
