“Not a good stay”

The hotel was very beautiful but the service sucked. When we arrived they were having a problem with the water. We were not able to drink the water. I was not about to shower with this cantaminated water. We were very upset because we drove from st.catharines Ontario and it took us 18 hours and all I wanted was a shower. They were not very sympathetic and we left the hotel the next morning we were suppose to stay for the week. They offered us no discount for the room with no water. I will not go back.

My husband and I spent our honeymoon in the ocean-front cottages at the Oak Island Inn. Everything was perfect from the private decks with the second to none water view to the lovely bedroom with a pine wood queen sized bed. The jacuzzi tub was a welcome touch and the entire cottage was decorated with taste and style. The well-appointed kitchen left nothing to desire and allowed us to cook meals to our own liking. A propane fireplace created ambience and romance, and the satelitte television provided a variety of choices of programs giving us options for entertainment. We were on our honeymoon remember! These chalets give you the feeling that your in your own cottage far from home, secluded and private, even though your in a hotel resort setting. Highly reccomended as a vacation destination!

“Very Enjoyable Location”

Oak Island Resort & Spa

Aug 7, 2004
7/7 found this review helpful

The hotel is located in the countryside between Mahone Bay and Chester. It's a good vacation hub to do day trips up to Peggy's Cove and well past Lunenberg to the south.
The staff, rooms, restaurant, scenic views were very good. As a family of four, this hotel worked wonderful for us. We would definitely recommend this to friends/family!

“Great views”

Oak Island Resort & Spa

May 18, 2004
3/3 found this review helpful

My wife and I spent two fantastic nights at the Oak Island resort. We found it to be a very good hotel, that was both comfortable and convenient to many of the local attractions in that part of Nova Scotia. The hotel staff was very kind and courtious [as are most people in Nova Scotia] and helpful in any of our needs. Though the view of the bay and the ocean beyond is what we enjoyed. Request an ocean view room and you will not be dissapointed. We spent one sunset, enjoying it from the hot tub in the glassed in pool area, fantastic.

“Murder Mystery Weekend is a BLAST!”

Oak Island Resort & Spa

Apr 18, 2004
6/7 found this review helpful

My husband and I just got back from a very fun weekend at Oak Island.
We went for our 5th anniversary. We didn't quite know what to expect from the Murder Mystery weekend. We arrived at 3pm, got our room right away. It was your basic average hotel room. Everything worked, it was clean, that's all we cared.

We went for supper in the hotel's restaurant. Beautiful atmosphere, but not much selection on the menu and a bit pricey. The wait staff was superb. Food was really tasty. After that we wandered the hotel lobby and lounge, which are homey and attractive. At 9pm, we went to the wine & cheese reception. We each got a free glass of house wine, which tasted a little like rotten vinegar. :) That's okay, it was FREE. After that we got into our groups and everyone introduced themselves. A little into the evening, we got to meet the cast of actors who would be entertaining us. They were excellent. Things started happening right away, clues being dropped every few minutes or so. Each group got a booklet of clues to start with. We had to mingle in the crowd, asking questions. One of the actors tried to pick me up, which I found amusing. He had given me a clue when he did this. Later in the night someone was murdered and it was all nuts from there.

"Duck Soup" was a blast. It consisted of relays and songs and a dress-up thing. The winning team got a big clue.

At each meal the cast of characters gathered and basically fought and accused each other. We got to talk to them and ask questions. It was highly entertaining. Another person wound up dead, and then we went on a scavenger hunt around the premisis for clues.

The buffets were really good. Not many choices but the food was delicious. Wait staff was prompt and friendly. The kareoke dance on Saturday night was kind of tame until a murder happened right in the middle of it. On Sunday we had to prepare a theory and present it. If you win you get T-shirts and certificates.

What a memorable weekend. We met lots of interesting people and had tons of fun. This is a MUST for fun-loving people who like to make new friends and enjoy a little intrigue. We want to go again next year! Oh and sorry for thinking it was you, Angelo, you Italian Stallion. :)
