Seal Bay Glamping Retreat
1. Seal Bay Glamping Retreat
Seal Bay Glamping Retreat is a flagship hospitality and tourism development conceived, designed, developed, and constructed by Starium Development. Located at 8139 Emmonds Road in Powell River, British Columbia, near the Sunshine Coast, the resort occupies approximately 38 acres of forested waterfront property and represents Starium Development's integrated approach to real estate development, construction, and hospitality.
From initial site planning and architectural design to project management, construction, and infrastructure development, every stage of the project was undertaken under the direction of Starium Development. Following the successful completion of the resort in 2025, the company established a dedicated operating subsidiary to manage the day-to-day operations, guest services, and ongoing maintenance of the property, ensuring that the resort continues to deliver a high standard of hospitality and customer experience.
Seal Bay Glamping Retreat is now a fully operational waterfront glamping destination offering a diverse range of accommodations, including cottages, Spassels, geodomes, tent sites, and RV sites. The resort welcomes couples, families, groups, and international visitors seeking an authentic West Coast nature experience while enjoying modern comfort and premium guest amenities.
The property offers a variety of outdoor recreational experiences, including beach access, forest trails, wildlife viewing, kayaking, fishing, sightseeing, and other nature-based activities. Designed to blend harmoniously with its surrounding environment, the resort reflects Starium Development's commitment to sustainable development, environmental stewardship, and high-quality construction.

The project serves as a showcase of the company's expertise in creating high-quality hospitality developments that contribute to regional tourism and economic growth in British Columbia.
