Named The Beach Motel, it’s no surprise that Ontario’s chicest lakeside property blooms come warmer temps. After a blockbuster first summer, The Beach Motel has announced a new food partnership, a yoga retreat and a flurry of charming packages to celebrate its second splendid year.
Located on the sandy shores of Lake Huron, in Southampton, Ontario, The Beach Motel feels worlds away from Toronto’s raucous streets. A passion project for owners Samantha and Dane Buttenaar, the motel comprises 17 thoughtfully fashioned suites, along with a lounge, spa and year-round rooftop patio, dubbed SandBar.
New this season, the team has partnered with Sauble Beach’s The Wellness Refinery to offer guests a menu of healthy and sustainable meals and snacks in the lounge and on the rooftop. A business built on crafting delicious bites that nourish as they delight, The Wellness Refinery has created a menu for The Beach Motel with a number of gluten-free and plant-based options. “The Beach Motel is very much aligned with the values of The Wellness Refinery,” said Dane Buttenaar, in a press release. “We can’t wait to provide an assortment of fresh and delicious superfoods to help our guests replenish their mind and body while enjoying a relaxing stay in Southampton.”
For breakfast, all-natural options include collagen-spiked fruit shakes, smoothies and cold-pressed juices, along with yogurt parfaits. Later in the day, grab-and-go items, wraps, bowls and sweets fuel active exploration or leisurely evenings.
Be among the first to sample the collaboration between June 13th and 15th, when the motel hosts a second iteration of its popular Yoga On The Beach retreat. The event includes four yoga classes — led by Eric Cunliffe, of Shakti Rhythm Yoga — a welcome drink, custom dinner at Elk & Finch, two breakfast jars and a to-go brunch from The Wellness Refinery.
The fun continues all summer, with four new packages designed to help guests lean heavily into relaxation and discover everything Southampton has to offer. Leave planning to the experts with the Explore the Southampton Shores package — a spree that promises to let visitors in on the “secrets of Hamptons North” with detailed instructions, discounts and delight at every turn. Less active, yet no less appealing, is the Dine & Dream with Elk & Finch package. Enhance your stay with this option, and indulge in a custom, three-course dinner in addition to your accommodations. Sip and S’mores elevates the evening with boozy coffees or teas, and a delicious s’mores platter, served by the side of the motel’s fire bowls or wood-burning fireplace. Finally, add the Wellness Refinery Picnic Basket to your reservation and the team will put together a picnic lunch you can graze on as you relish every moment of beachside relaxation.
Whether you're keen on self-care, gleeful escape, or ultimate leisure, The Beach Motel has everything you need for a memorable summer getaway. To reserve your room, visit Thebeachmotel.ca.
