We had the Starlight room and it was beautiful, overlooking the water. There is no patio or personal balcony for this room but it was still perfect. We stayed for 3 nights, and there was plenty to do all around. Starlight room has utensils, cups, plates, a fridge and microwave. "

"This is a very old property that's been nicely updated. It's a great location walkable to all of downtown Guernville. The rooms are large and beds are comfy. On the downside, you definitely hear your neighbors walking around, talking, toilets flushing and showers running. It wasn't bad enough for me not to stay there again. It's just an old building. It's also VERY pricey for what you get! "

"1st stay at Fisherman's Cottage and we were thrilled with the cottage. Close walking distance to beach. Cottage clean, comfortable, had all the essentials we needed. Had a couple of issues, called for assistance and received prompt service, including serviceman coming to cottage to check heater. Excellent. Only other issue were ants in the kitchen each morning. Let management know at our departure. We will be booking again!!!"

Seamist Beach Cottage
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (204)
"This is a split review because the view of this property makes everything worth it. But, there were some downsides to the experience as well. The reason I am still happy I booked this location was the experience of sitting in the hot tub or sitting for hours on the deck looking at the staggering view. That’s what makes everything worth it. I’ve traveled all around the world and it’s easily one of the best views I’ve ever seen. Downsides: Poor communication: There was literally NO...

Quaint Ocean Getaway, Walk to Beach, Dogs Invited

5/5 Excellent
Cozy little cliff house
"We had a great time. It was very relaxing. Small place which worked out perfect for us. Easy walk to the beaches, which the dogs enjoyed as well. One beach has a pretty steep stair access so be careful. We really enjoyed our time. Thank you so much for allowing us to enjoy your home."
