Whale House Guest House

Excellent location to explore the area and hike part of the East Coast Trail right out the door. Very handy to have a fridge and cooking facilities. Host very attentive. Really liked their values in terms of conservation. Perfect set up for hikers needs.

We booked the Humpback Room because of the hot tub and ocean view. There was not much of a view. The trees and vegetation does not allow for any view of the Ocean. The room is very small and nowhere to sit except for two wooden chairs. No place to put any of your clothes away. It may not be so bad but there is no other place on the property to sit outside. The weather was great but beside the bench outside our door there was not place to sit not even on the deck with the hot tub. They should also let you know before you arrive about some of their rules. There is a slgn above the toilet that only pee and poop goes into the toilet. Anything you use to wipe is to go into the garbage can beside the toilet. All in all it was not what we expected.

This was a beautiful location to stay. Only steps away from the trailhead of the Tinker Trail part of the East Coast Trail, and close to the Mobile Trail (to Witless Bay) where we saw whales, seal, and sea birds. The location was quaint, we pulled up to ducks and blue jays, and the garden in the back is beautiful. The room was clean (had to put toilet paper in a garbage and not flush and there are ducks around if that’s a no for you), but we loved every part of our stay.

Had the Beach House suite with hot tub. Gorgeous view with large picture windows on two sides. Lovely big room, king bed -mattress was amazing. Shower and hot tub amenities were all good. Lots of games and books available. Hot tub was perfect and Amanda lowered the temperature for us before arriving. Furniture and artwork was lovely. My comments below are minor but might be thoughts for future improvement for others. We plan to go back next summer as we enjoyed the experience so much. My reason for not giving 5 star was there was no coffee creamers/whitener in the room which we only realized early morning. Also would be nicer to have drinking water kept in fridge rather than on the counter. I was a bit concerned how long it might have been there. We used tap instead but the only sink was about half the size of bar sink. TV did not work and kept getting stuck spinning.

The blue whale suite was very nice and the views were excellent. We loved the hot tub and the peacefulness of the stay. The suite is simple but elegant. The bed was so comfortable and the sheets were very soft. Saw some puffins and one minke whale on the nearby boats tour. Amanda was great and offered lots of information prior to the stay. Hope to stay again someday.

Very spacious and quiet area with a beautiful view. Owner was very professional and answered any questions very promptly. The location is walking distance to a restaurant called the Fork which I highly recommend and a couple east coast hiking trails .

We spent one night here as it was close to a wedding we were attending. The space was great for what we needed and the bed was SOO comfy!! Everything was up to date and modern! Would definitely recommend this as a perfect little getaway spot! We loved it!

The space was exactly as advertised. Very comfy bed and everything I needed for a pleasant stay. Sweet garden to relax in with two East Coast Trail directions to head to just steps from the front door. Great time! Highly recommend the Fork Restauant which is a 2-minute walk from the suite.

Quiet peaceful place off the beaten path. We stayed in the humpback room which has a hot tub and small deck. The room is below the blue whale which also has a hot tub. Our room was rectangular-longer than wide. The room is great for staying several days because it has a hot plate, microwave, and toaster oven. The grocery store is nearby. However, be sure to get some food from the Happy Afghan food truck. We had a delicious dish of chicken biryani, nan, and pop. They will make a different dish each day, but you can call ahead and they will make what you want. In close proximity/walking distance you will find Fork Restaurant, 2 East Coast trails, and the Molly Bawn puffin/whale tour. We especially liked the whale house for privacy and a relaxed ambiance. Thanks, Amanda, our host of the Whale House
