Fogo Island Inn

Fogo Island Inn

Stay in an exceptional place, in every way

Presentation Practical information
An exceptional place in extreme nature

Located northeast of the coast of Newfoundland, Fogo Island is said by the Flat Earth Society to be one of the four corners of the world.
With nearly 3,000 inhabitants, who for generations have lived off cod fishing, this small rocky island is a destination not chosen by chance. Only the Farewell ferry will bring you back to your daily life.

At 16, Zita Cobb, the only daughter in a family of seven children, accustomed to working alongside her father, a fisherman on the island, received a scholarship to study at the University of Ottawa and left this piece of land.
After making a fortune in the fiber optics industry and traveling, she returned to her native island, full of philanthropic projects shared with two of her brothers: creating a foundation, the Shorefast Foundation, to promote local traditions and knowledge, revitalize this rural area by developing jobs through tourism and the arts.
The challenge was successfully met with the collaboration of architect Todd Saunders and Chef Murray Mac Donald, both Newfoundlanders, who personally contributed to the success of this project.
"Fogo Island Arts," the artist residency program, has captured the attention of top artists worldwide. The first four stunning art studios perched on the rocky landscape and the restoration of traditional houses are sure to leave no one indifferent.

The opening in June 2013 of the Fogo Island Inn, a luxury hotel with contemporary, luminous, and 100% ecological architecture, capped off the project supported by the entire Island community.
Carpenters, cabinetmakers, and island artisans renovated houses and crafted furniture using shipbuilding techniques. Women finally had their talents recognized as experts in crocheted rugs, knitting, and quilts—those quilted and padded bedspreads—and nearly 68 islanders were employed at the hotel.

Anchored in untamed nature, like an ocean liner facing the sea, the 29 suites and art gallery open onto the Atlantic.
The view from your room? The ocean's whims, icebergs, and whales. Breathtaking!
Unless you prefer the 360° panorama offered from the rooftop hot tubs.

In Fogo, they like to say there are seven seasons, our four seasons plus the berry, iceberg, and pack ice seasons. We are at the end of the world.
