Inn by the Bay was recently renovated by owner Elizabeth Dillon. We were very fortunate to meet Elizabeth, have some great chats and learn about the area. Our room was lovely, bright, clean and comfortable. Tammy and Colette looked after us exceptionally well and made sure we had everything we needed. Continental breakfasts, including delicious homemade muffins, pastries and cookies, were located in the sunroom, overlooking Dildo Cove and Dildo Arm. In the same room was a sitting area for guests to relax and enjoy the view. Dildo was the perfect place to make a base for exploring part of the Avalon Peninsula and we're so glad we chose Inn by the Bay as our home away from home. Thank you Elizabeth, Tammy and Colette for making it so special!
We arrived a little later than expected and Tammy met us (and a few other couples checking in at the same time) to check us in. She showed us into the dining room where we'd have breakfast the next day which was huge, beautifully decorated and set and had gorgeous views!! Tammy made sure we had everything we needed and was really friendly. Breakfast in the morning was continental which can sometimes mean not much but there was plenty of food and variety!
Loved our stay. Clean and cozy with an amazing view and a warm welcome from staff. Continental breakfast with loads of choices and conveniently located within walking distance of the Dildo Brewing Co where we enjoyed several meals, great beer and wonderful staff. You won’t be disappointed.
We had a last minute cancellation in Dildo and we booked this place on very short notice. The Inn is just fantastic- oceanfront views, cozy rooms, comfortable bed, great breakfast. This place has everything you need for a comfortable stay, and then some. Elizabeth, we are so grateful for your hospitality and kindness, especially on such short notice. We had such a lovely stay in the Warren Room. Thank you so much!! Will definitely return, and would 100% recommend this spot! Stay here - you'll be glad you did. - N and J.
Lovely B&B, nice towels and bedding, funny notice on the toilet. Unfortunately contrary to the pictures on the site, breakfast was very disappointing with prepackaged wrapped muffins, containers of cereal, big container of margerine, packaged jams. No home made bread, preserves, and NO staff to direct you. No binder/book to give you the lay of the land, what's to do in Dildo and surrounding areas. A hand written note on the hall table, "if you need something phone ....."
The B& B is a gem by the ocean side. The rooms are so clean & well appointed, free parking, wifi & breakfast included. The host (Tammy) is so friendly & accommodating, such a pleasure to meet. We were in walking distance of the Brewery & the now famous sign, so once you park your car, you can walk the village. Sadly Breakfast is now continental, not a full breakfast as noted in previous TA reviews, so if you like protein with your breakfast, pack some nuts or a protein bar! Otherwise the choice of breads, cereals, fruits & yogurt, beverages are plentiful.
We just spent one night at the Inn by the Bay but it was one of the nicest places we stayed during our two weeks on the Rock. Colleen the owner and Tammy, who helps her, were just delightful. Our room had a lovely comfortable bed which smelled so clean. Even the pillows smelled new, which is a big deal for me. The Inn faces the bay and is situated across the street from the Dildo Brewery which is a blast. And the Jimmy Kimmel craze happened to coincide with our visit which was so fun. What lovely people in Dildo.
This B & B is in a fantastic location right beside the Bay in Dildo. The rooms are very well appointed. All with nice views of the bay or the hills behind. Very quiet, peaceful. Wonderful staff and amazing hot breakfast. Kept us going till dinner. Beautiful spot. Highly recommend it.
Great location and accommodations, beautiful views - wonderful host. This was one of the nicest B&Bs that I've ever been in. Beautiful room - great amenities and very helpful host. I was the only one staying there at the time, so it was extremely quiet. Breakfast was lovely - the host made me whatever I wanted. Close to a few good restaurants and a new brewery.
My husband and I stayed for two nights at the Inn by the Bay on our two week holiday in Newfoundland. We were warmly welcomed by our host, Colleen, and shown to a spacious, beautifully decorated room with ensuite bathroom. There is parking on site and the wifi is free. We spent the evening walking along the waterfront and visiting the busy Dildo Brewing Company. The next day we drove around the peninsula to Grates Cove and back which was a very scenic drive. Colleen and her staff fed us the most delicious and beautifully served breakfasts that we had in the whole month we spent in the Maritimes. Breakfast was a work of art ... and tasted just as fabulous as it looked! We found everyone to be very friendly and hospitable, the bed was comfortable and the entire experience was perfect!…
