Fogo Island Inn named to the Travel + Leisure It List 2014

The annual editor’s choice awards for the best new hotels

Fogo Island Inn in Newfoundland, Canada, has been named to the Travel + Leisure It List 2014 of best new hotels around the globe. The “It List” will be featured in the March issue of Travel + Leisure (T+L) and is also available on www.TravelandLeisure.com.

Fogo Island Inn was selected by Travel + Leisure editors and contributors for its impact on the global landscape of hotels. Its placement on this highly selective annual list comes after only 10 months of operation and at the mid point of their first winter season.

 “I am thrilled that our Inn, located on one of the four corners of the Earth, has been selected as one of the world’s best new hotels of 2014,” says David Curell, General Manager of Fogo Island Inn. “We are honoured to be included in this stellar group of newly introduced hotels.”

During this past year, Travel + Leisure editors travelled across the globe to test locations, looking for the 70 best new hotels, resorts and renovations.

To produce the 2014 It List each property was personally visited by either a Travel + Leisure editor or contributor. “Travel + Leisure's It List 2014 marks our ninth annual quest across the globe in search of new and innovative hotels. This impressive roster of recently opened properties spans from Maui to Zambia, with stops in Costa Rica, Rome, and Siem Reap along the way,” said Nancy Novogrod, Editor-in-Chief of Travel + Leisure.

ABOUT THE FOGO ISLAND INN
Fogo Island Inn sits on an Island, off an Island, off one of the four corners of the Earth. Every one of the Inn’s 29 one-of-a-kind guest suites has dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that open onto the wildest and most powerful ocean on the planet, located less than 100 feet from an organic natural-fibre dream bed. Most suites have a wood-burning fireplace stove; all are furnished with quiet luxuries and handmade furniture and quilts - a stimulating relief from the numbing uniformity of modern times. Built on the principles of sustainability and respect for nature and culture, the award-winning Inn was designed by architect Todd Saunders. The Inn is a community asset and all surpluses from the operation are reinvested in the community to help secure a long-lasting resilience for Fogo Island, Newfoundland.
