Fogo Island Inn is a favorite of intrepid travelers (and a regular entry in Elite Traveler’s Top Hotels). As the name suggests, it is located on Fogo Island, the largest of the offshore islands of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.

The modern structure has 29 guestrooms with dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that bring in […]
