- The Fogo Island Inn is a hotel located on the northern shore of Fogo Island in Newfoundland, Canada. The inn consists of an outbuilding and main building that totals 4500m2 in area. The main building includes 29 guest rooms, a restaurant, Finnish-styled roof-top saunas designed by Rintala Eggertsson Architects, a cinema run in partnership with the National Film Board of Canada, a library featuring books selected by Dr. Leslie Harris, and an art gallery curated by Fogo Island Arts. The main building has four floors, where the first and second floors house most of the public amenities, and 21 guest rooms are located on the third and fourth floors. The outbuilding includes the inn’s storage, laundry, and mechanical facilities. The Fogo Island Inn completed construction in June 2013. The Fogo Island Inn was designed by Todd Saunders for his client Zita Cobb. Cobb is the former CFO of a fibre-optics company and founder of Shorefast, a non-profit foundation that helps to build economic and cultural resilience on Fogo Island. Saunders was born in Gander, Newfoundland while Cobb was born on Fogo Island. The vision of the inn was to create a space to showcase and preserve the traditional hospitality, art and culture of Fogo Island. With the project being funded by Shorefast, the profits made from the inn are reinvested into the local community, helping to strengthen the once-struggling economy. Before the construction of the inn, four artist studios were constructed as a part of Shorefast’s mission to develop the island as an ecotourism destination to diversify the local economy, which is heavily dependent on cod fishing.
