The property has charm! The bed was super comfortable and the breakfast was delicious! The owners went out of their way to make breakfast early for us so we could eat before we headed out on our kayak trip and we were so grateful for their willingness to accommodate us. We highly recommend staying here and hope to stay again in the future.

6/10 Good

Property was described as an inn with breakfast when it was actually a B&B. The room was very small for 3 people. Nice location and host.
William, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We enjoyed our stay at Candlebay Inn. It was a very pleasant room and the breakfast was excellent.
Richard, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Only traveling through for one night so the location just off the highway and yet in quiet, lovely setting was perfect. We enjoyed being able to take lovely walks in the evening and the next morning and even got in a bit of shopping. Dinner options were plentiful and close. My one suggestion, for those traveling, is to start breakfast service a bit earlier than 8:00 AM.
Constance, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Host was very kind and welcoming! Historic building was beautiful and quaint. Room had everything you could need and the cutest lobster made of towels. The handmade breakfast was nice! Check in and checkout were easy and smooth also. So close to the downtown area, we were able to walk to see everything! Great stay.
