Alderbrook Resort & Spa

B Corp
Contact us

Benefiting from an impressive waterside vantage point, Alderbrook Resort & Spa is a contemporary resort built in a traditional wooden chalet-style and sits against a backdrop of the thriving forest.

Its simple rooms and cottages are thoughtfully decorated in neutral shades of sage green and chocolate brown with premium linens, soaking bathtubs and comfortable duvets. There is also a waterfront pool and spa, and the resort is close to a PGA-class golf course.

Why we like Alderbrook Resort & Spa

On Saturdays, guests are encouraged to forage for edible plants, mushrooms and berries on one of the property’s nature trails before joining a cooking demonstration with the Chef, who will use these findings to create a delicious dish sourced directly from the landscape.

Activities

When not strolling down the beach, kayaking, swimming, golfing or paddle-boarding, guests can partake in a game of badminton at sunset, cruise along Hood Canal or taste the authentic flavours of Union at one of the resort’s pop-up beach-side feasts at the marina. It is also possible to explore the historic community of Union by utilising the complimentary shopping shuttle service that drives to the Union City Market and nearby antique shops and art galleries.

Location

Conveniently situated two hours away from Seattle Washington, the Alderbrook Resort & Spa feels like a world away from the metropolis of the city. Enclosed by the impressive Olympic Mountains of the Pacific Northwest, the property is situated on the shores of the Hood Canal, a glacier-carved fjord that provides habitats for eagles, seals and an array of other wildlife.
