My boyfriend and I couldn’t have asked for a better spot to stay for our last night in PEI. While you do feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere that’s half the charm. The property was beautiful the breakfast they served was delicious and we couldn’t have asked for more out of our stay. We will certainly to try stay here again the next time we’re on the east coast!

The inn has magnificent views of the ocean, is centrally located, and serves delicious breakfasts. Hosts are friendly and very accommodating. One area of improvement would be in providing better lighting upon entering unit....both outside and inside. Overall, a lovely place to stay.

Cliffside Inn is in a beautiful area just 10 minutes from the Wood Islands Ferry Terminal and on the water. Somewhat of an eccentric layout but full of character and good vibes. Hosts Amber and Jay were very helpful and prepared a nice dinner for us on our last evening. Conveniently located for all eastern island day trips in PEI

Quaint little seaside Inn near the ferry

The Inn has the right idea. It's set beautifully on a cliff side overlooking the water. The decor is done well and the atmosphere is very cozy. The bed and pillows are rock hard and made for a challenging night's sleep, and the host could have been a tad more responsive. But overall, it's cute little in and a perfect place to spend the night if you're catching the Wood Islands ferry in the morning

This couple does not know how to run an Inn. Disorganized. Poor communication. The husband was friendly (Amber seemed pained to even say hello and was ungracious ). Jay did very kindly make us a nice meal. Other than that, they seem unfit for their chosen profession.

Best host on the island!

When we got there, they had no record of our reservations. Immediately, Amber said they had one room vacant and was so accommodating!!! She immediately freshened up our room, gave us a bottle of wine, and assured us everything was fine!

A little gem on the south coast of PEI

While only an overnight stay this little inn tucked in on the south coast of PEI offered a magnificent view of the St Lawrence, comfy king sized beds and a home cooked breakfast. The owners were welcoming and friendly and made sure we had everything we needed.

If you want a cozy little getaway from the hustle and bustle this is your sign. It was an overnight in the Spring - cool & rainy so unable to enjoy the grounds. But drivable to local eats in the area. Amy, our host, was super friendly. Enjoyed her company at breakfast.
