Mill Bay Magic!
Really enjoyed our stay here! Fiona is “on it,” very detailed in how she manages her place. She checks in guests, also checks regularly to make sure your stay is enjoyable. The bed is VERY comfortable, not too hard or soft and great linens. The area is quiet, and sleep will come east I’m sure. The front foyer area is where breakfast can be made, and while there is no stove or oven they have done what they can to provide breakfast appliances. Now for the view! Sigh, it was amazing. Had our coffee here everyday, and just soaked it all in. We would return for sure!

A Little Piece of Heaven
A clock. A TV. A radio. You will not find these here! The most enjoyable host you could have will greet you and can provide you with a wealth of information from dining experiences to knowledge of the area. We loved sitting on the lawn every morning with our breakfast and coffee overlooking the bay. It was so spacious and peaceful with such beauty it made it difficult to go out every day. You will not be disappointed!

The ocean view from the wall of windows in this suite is spectacular. Or you can step outside, sit in the lawn chairs provided and enjoy the same view, listen to the ocean sounds and feel the ocean breezes. There is also a short path down to the waters' edge. The suite itself was impeccably clean and offered everything we needed, including a very comfortable bed. The hosts were great. They were available to answer any questions we had while being totally respectful of our privacy.
