We had a good one night stay. The beach and ocean being so close was the best part. We were disappointed that the restaurant on site was closed. The condo was clean and comfortable but I would suggest a new mattress in the John Cabot number 22. You kind of roll into the centre. Beautiful location!

The waterfront views and location are the best things about this property. However, the unit is very dated and doesn’t match the price. The furnishings need updating, the A/C only worked by plugging it in or unplugging it, the Wi-Fi stopped working after the first day, and we had no hot water until maintenance reset the system. With some renovations and better maintenance, this could be a great place to stay.

This place was PERFECT for us. Lots of room. The rooms were well appointed - lots of small amenties that make life easier. Full kitchen. A separate room away from the bedroom. TVs were nice. Kitchen was well appointed. I'm struggling to find a negative. The only thing I can find is that the mattresses need a bit of an upgrade. They aren't great. And, yet, it's still a 5-star for us based on how well the place was appointed, the location and the comfort.

It is a beautiful property, but there were issues. No hot water , no telephone and the tv didn’t work. Hot water and tv problems were fixed with a phone call, but shouldn’t have been an issue.

This is NOT a Resort, but simply cottages, the one we stayed in had “Mountain Views” and while you could see the mountains in the distance the main view was of the neighboring cottages who also had a great view of us directly into our windows. There is no restaurant, food service nor any amenities or activities and the new management or owner has little to no knowledge and experience in the hospitality industry. This place is completely overpriced. When we asked what makes this a resort? He was defensive and said no one has asked that question. They are selling off the restaurant part of the property and keeping the cottages and raising the prices probably.

Unfortunately this stay fell short. The room felt rundown, old TV in bedroom, and had a persistent musty smell throughout our visit that we couldn't shake, even with the window open and AC blasted. It was disappointing given the price paid. There are better options nearby for a cheaper price.

Be aware- our room had a rodent issue during our stay There were mice in our room. I was very dissatisfied to see whwn we called to advise of the issue your staff had no remorse. We paid close to $500 for a one night stay I expected more for that price. It is apparent you knew of the mice issue as we found a mouse trap behind the sofa I sent a message directly to the property with no response. Thank you

Beds are squeaky upon moving and very uncomfortable. Staff unfriendly. Cable limited to 3 channels. Food in the area remote. Choices for food traveling back to Chéticamp about 12 miles away. Pricey to stay. No air conditioning in bedroom only. The living room area with one air conditioner for the entire space. So if you close the door to the bedroom your bedroom area becomes stuffy and hot. Checking out no friendly staff to thank you for your stay. Absent staff.

The staff was very helpful, the property is dated but clean and everything is present. We had to leave early because of power outage in NS. We got a refund for that night. Hint: a little bit of TLC would make it more enjoyable, The views are spectacular!

View was outstanding. Room was spacious and in good shape. The hot water was poor. No TV. Grass uncut. Coffee weak. One guy running the desk, probably overworked. It seems they're minimizing expenses on above.
