Spirit Ridge at Nk’Mip Resort

Although just 10 years old, Spirit Ridge sits on land that has been the home of the Osoyoos Indian Band for thousands of years. Rich in culture and historical relevance, the iconic resort"s design embraces the Okanagan First Nations people and celebrates their deep spiritual connection to natural surroundings; all of which deliver on the brand"s promise of creating story-worthy and shareable experiences for the modern traveler. Nestled on the slopes of the South Okanagan Valley, the adobe style resort features all-suites and villas accommodations ranging in size from one to three bedrooms. All suites and villas feature fully equipped kitchens, outdoor private terraces and sweeping vistas of the surrounding vineyards, desert mountains and Osoyoos Lake.

The resort provides a full range of services and amenities including a 7,000-square-foot conference center, 226 suites and villas, private beach access to the nearby Lake Osoyoos, three food and beverage offerings, several pools, hot tubs and private cabanas. Additionally, guests have on-property access to the award-winning NK"MIP Cellars Vineyard, the nine-hole Sonora Dunes Golf Course and NK"IP Desert Cultural Center. The region impressively boasts 300 days of annual sunshine, which makes it an ideal destination to enjoy outdoor activities.

This winter, Spirit Ridge will undergo an extensive $5.2 million renovation to enhance the guest experience, and will remain open while upgrades are taking place. Guest suites, public areas, swimming pools, meeting rooms, restaurants and fitness centers will be refreshed, and the first phase of renovations is anticipated to be completed by spring 2018. All renovations will be an authentic representation of the South Okanagan Valley and the sacred land on which it sits.
