Calming sea views from our balcony, very clean, has keurig, microwave, fridge. Outdoor seating on chairs at water. Great food at Cafe L’Acadie just within walking distance. Highly recommend booking the Cozy Cliff Motel and enjoying the local dishes at Cafe L’Acadia.

A fine family hotel very near the Peggy's Cove site. That allowed us to visit the site very early in the day, and go again later, when the cruise tourism is over.

The closest motel to Peggy’s Cove. It is located on the water with a patio area near the water. The rooms overlook the water. Some have outside decks directly off the room. No restaurants nearby or not in early September. Reduced hours due to off season. We ordered pizza from a flyer that was in the room. Great pizza!!!

Checking in was both smooth & pleasant. Room was clean & comfortable. Room & washroom amenities were more than adequate. Location is fantastic. Just minutes away from Peggy's Cove Lighthouse. A few good restaurants within 10 minutes drive away. Highly recommended!
