Top Western Shore Hotel Reviews

The Homeport Motel

8/10 Good

"I thought the location was great, my husband would have preferred somewhere on Lunenburg’s Main Street. Didn’t need to use the laundry, but it was great to know it was available. We had a lovely time and certainly consider staying at Homeport again!"

The Tuna Blue Inn and Restaurant

10/10 Excellent

"The Tuna Blue is charming, well maintained, quiet, and comfortable. We loved the location right on Hubbards Cove and the beautiful view from our room - the terraces are a fantastic amenity. The building is very cool and it feels like you’re staying in someone’s big old house. We had a delicious dinner at the restaurant and waitstaff were friendly and efficient. We never actually met a staff member from the Inn, which wasn’t a problem (nice that they trusted us to check ourselves in and out!). They don’t offer breakfast but the in-room coffee was excellent - though we would have liked the opportunity to get a second cup! In fact we think one improvement they could make would be to use a downstairs common room for a guest coffee station (and a few muffins in the morning wouldn’t hurt!). Our bathroom was fine though a bit dated and the shower light didn’t work, and our room could’ve used a rug. But overall we loved the place and would stay there again!"

Surfside Inn

8/10 Good

"We stayed in the honeymoon suite and the king bed was amazingly comfortable. The staff were great and helped me with heavy bags up the steep stairs (be ready for that if you’re old or weak). The adjacent beach across the road was quite with hardly anyone on it (romantic). The down side of the room was 3 things: 1) there were only sheers on the windows so privacy at night was a little off and the room was too bright in the morning. 2) the shower stall was ridiculously small - about 24” x 30” so the curtain stuck to my side and the shower head was an old ‘water saver’ head and hardly sprayed much water. 3) the bathroom fan was noisy and requires replacing. The chandelier above the jacuzzi tub made us laugh as we banged our heads on it standing up. Oh and #4 if the owners are reading… replace the window screens! The ocean view is no good blurred by ancient window screens. A nice stay but not worth the money -especially for newlyweds and because I need a nice shower!!"

Floating Cottage on The LaHave River close to beaches, golf, on Lighthouse Route

10/10 Excellent

"The reviews didn't lie. The cottage is exactly as described. Beautiful peaceful location. Great communication with the host. Everything was neat and clean. I would not hesitate to book again. It was a perfect place for our anniversary trip."

Luxury Oceanfront Retreat in Chester close to Mahone Bay, Lunenburg,

8/10 Good

"The host was terrific at communication with us. The location was beautiful and very quiet & peaceful. Views were amazing! There were a couple of candy wrappers on the living room floor and the dining room table was very dusty. The patio could have used a sweep as well. Nothing too major, but should be noted, especially at this price point. My biggest complaint was the bed. The bedroom is beautifully decorated and the bed looked amazing. However, Im 5' tall and the bed is extremely high! I was unable to get into it, and spent the night sleeping on the couch. If I was younger and without mobility issues, it mightve been manageable. This is the first time in my 60+ years that I couldn't get into a bed ..... and I've traveled a lot. Very disappointed."
