Experience forest cocooning for the ultimate romantic getaway at Olympic National Park, WA.

Story

Could you and your honey (but mostly you) use an urban detox?

Experience Menizei, the first luxury basecamp for couples for the ultimate romantic getaway. Located 15 minutes north of Olympic National Park in Washington State, escape the grind of city living.
 

Reconnect, rejuvenate, and relish each other in the seclusion of nature.
 

Can’t be bothered with packing in and out?

Enjoy the great outdoors. We already pitched your tent. 

Your tent is sumptuously appointed with a king bed and luxury linens. You’ve the option to close the mesh doors and windows to enjoy the ocean breeze or you can secure your canvas doors and windows for total privacy.
 

Suffer from restless nights?

Savor your best night’s sleep. Ever.  Experience our proprietary, black-out tents, which you’ll appreciate when the sun rises just after 5:00AM, and the ultimate noise machine – waves of the Salish Sea crashing against your slice of our private bluff.  
 

Sore after a day of hiking?

Your private bathhouse, designed by the award-winning architectural firm GO’C, is fully-plumbed and boasts your personal spa complete with bidet, sink and shower.
 

After a day of exploring Olympic National Park, indulge in your private sauna with an ocean view for a complete sensory experience.
 

If you don’t have Olympic National Park on your radar, fix your radar. 

Not only does Olympic National Park feature 73 miles of wilderness coastline, the longest undeveloped coast in the contiguous United States, it also has the only protected temperate rainforest in the United States. And the legendary Hoh Rainforest is considered one of the quietest places on planet earth!
 

Only have one weekend to explore Olympic National Park and the Peninsula?
 

Menizei is centrally located on the north coast of the Olympic Peninsula, serving as the perfect basecamp to explore the nation’s Emerald Crown Jewel.
 


Each basecamp features our proprietary black-out tent with private viewing deck and private bathhouse.
 

Each fully-plumbed bathhouse features a sink, shower and bidet. 
 

Located on 10-acres of forested land, Menizei offers only three basecamps, providing you and your partner complete solitude and privacy. Each basecamp offers ocean views, overlooking the Strait of Juan de Fuca. 
 

Based in Port Angeles, WA, we’re a 2-hour ferry ride from Victoria, BC. You can arrive by car or plane. Seattle is a 2.5 hour roadtrip, while Portland is four hours away by car. San Francisco is a two-hour flight and a flight from Houston is five hours. 

Have an electric vehicle you need to charge for the drive home? We’ve one EV charger reserved for each basecamp. 
 


Having graduated from Columbia University School of Law, Janice brings her checkered history of law, technology and real estate development to the Menizei table. Combining her love of the outdoors with her passion for thoughtful hospitality is Janice’s holy grail. 
 

Mark, a forestry graduate from the University of Montana, is well-versed in campground maintenance and safety. Having spent his formative years working hospitality and trail crew at Yellowstone National Park, he’s thrilled to return to his roots.
