Upper Island Cove Vacation Packages

The room was nice and within walking distance of downtown (you need to be able to do hills). Our only serious complaint is the parking. The inn has none, and street parking is complicated. Although the parking rules may be clear to locals, travellers will not know where to find critical information. In our case, we incurred $100 in parking fines in one overnight due to confusing signage and an unmarked street cleaning operation. The property owners posted a small paper notice on the front door, but honestly when you struggling to get your bags in off the street and up the stairs, these things get missed. A better warning system would be useful.

Parking is included. Hotel was clean. Only complaint was gym and pool were closed for renos. Otherwise no complaints.

Clean good food close to downtown

Beautiful hotel, beautiful room, very good breakfasts. Staff were very professional and friendly. Location excellent- close to downtown. Lovely Victorian-style home.

We spent 3 nights in an ocean view suite with a hot tub. The view was amazing! The room was fully equipped with a kitchen and utensils. Entrance was by key pad so we didn’t need to check in at the front desk. The room, view and hot tub were absolutely beautiful and we very much enjoyed our stay there. However, as another reviewer had pointed out, it seemed like we were in a VRBO property as no staff member stopped by to see if we needed anything, like more coffee, tea or towels, and there was no housekeeping. For a $400 per night room, we shouldn’t even have to ask for this! Even a quick text to welcome us would have been appreciated. However, we were shocked that instead of a welcoming text, the first text we received was to tell us there was a strict quiet time at 10:30 pm and that if we did not adhere to this there would be levies. In all our years of travel, we’d never received such a terse text at check in! Also, there were strict reminders to shower before hot tub usage and that fines would also apply if this was not done. Regardless of the beauty of the property, we did find these reminders a bit unwelcoming and unnecessary. In addition, there was no information on who to call for supplies, menus for the restaurants on site, firewood for our fire pit, things to do while there or anything else. This would have been very useful.
