Fodor's Expert Review Delta Victoria Ocean Pointe Resort and Spa

Across the Johnson Street Bridge from Downtown Victoria, this waterfront resort has all sorts of amenities, from tennis and squash courts to an indoor pool, popular spa, around-the-clock gym, and a waterfront walking path. Rooms, many with views across the water to the Parliament buildings, are spacious and airy. Gadget geeks, take note: you can plug all your electronics into the sleek integrated "smart desks." Conferences play a big role here, though kids are made welcome with check-in treats, discounted meals, and evening story time. The hotel's restaurant and bar, LURE, offers creative share plates, a fun vibe, and expansive harbor views.
