We had a great stay, Blue Whale Cottage was spotlessly clean and well equipped - everything we needed for our break. Great communication, with plenty of information given before we arrived. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend if you want to spend some time in the Bay of Fundy/St Martins area.

This property surpassed our expectations! Loved all the extras like puzzles, games, robes, plenty of towels. Cozy coastal decor. Hosts were friendly and accessible during our stay. The view of the caves is amazing! And having the hot tub to soak in after day of beach combing was just lovely! Will stay again.

Perfect Ocean Getaway

The Blue Whale was the perfect backdrop for our gals trip long weekend! This home has everything you need, spectacular views, and excellent proximity to shops and restaurants, as well as the Fundy Trail Provincial Park. Love the covered hot tub for rainy days!

Beautiful place and excellent location

We just loved the Blue Whale! The location was amazing, seeing the Sea Caves and watching the tide from the rental was just fantastic. The hot tub was a favorite too and the robes were a great extra touch. Everything was perfect. We grilled and cooked meals in the unit and having the Caves restaurant so close was wonderful. We bought scallops at Spinneys seafood market - they were delicious! We also had Lobster Rolls for takeout. Very yummy! Huttges was a great place for groceries and meat. Beds were super comfy and the host let us use a cot which was also comfy.

Great place in the perfect location

We loved it from the moment we pulled in the driveway right till the last minute. Its location, the views, cleanliness, attention to detail. I mean theres a private hot tub! Everything we needed to feel perfectly at home was there and Becky was always just minutes away if we needed anything.(Thanks for the extra box of Kleenex) This is not just a place to stay. It's a destination

Amazing house view...everything

We stayed 7 days. There were 3 of us. 1 bedroom each(1 king, 1queen and a twin size with memory foam mattresses), and two full bathrooms. The hot tub was inspected daily to make sure it was just right. Plenty of room. Becky, the host, seemed to think of everything. Including nightlights, robes to wear to the hot tub and even laundry soap! The house was beautiful and the view of the bay and the sea cave great?

The Blue Whale is amazing

the cottage was perfect, the owner was excellent and gave extra attention to our special requests, the location and view were great. The hot tub was the icing on the cake. Highly recommend this property. If I had to find a negative, the beds were soft, but that is purely personal preference not a reflection of the cottage.

Great location

Location can’t be beat. You can walk to the caves from here. There are a couple nice restaurants across the road. Close to the Provincial Park. Close to the local store. The VRBO has everything you could need and more. Communication with the host was easy and responses were within minutes. Quiet and relaxing. The photos on the website don’t really do it justice. One of the nicest VRBO’s for the price.

Lovely Whale-Themed cottage

Although we had a very busy agenda and did not get a chance to fully enjoy the cottage, we found it to be a wonderful property with all the amenities/well-stocked kitchen and laundry facility, and a hot tub to boot! The view of the Caves from the front windows NEVER got boring and the location was ideal--it allowed us to get to our other New Brunswick spots easily. We did not discover the Fundy Trail Parkway till the evening before, on our way back from Fundy National Park but it was absolutely beautiful and scenic and turned out to be so close to the cottage. Our hosts Becky and Shawn were very responsive to our questions and concerns, and it was so nice they provided some fresh ground local coffee which was very enjoyable. Little added things like this are always appreciated. Would highly recommend and if we are back in the area, would definitely stay there again!

We were in the Saint John area to tidy up some estate business and wanted a quiet place to relax and unwind. Needless to say, we found it. The unit was tidy and well equipped, never mind the bonus feature of the hot tub.
