What guests liked
The hot tub was super clean and a great addition to the stay, with many guests enjoying its views and ambiance. (7 reviews)
Over two nights I had two different rooms at Whale House. One was roomier with a really nice hot tub in a private deck. The Orca room was a completely adequate efficiency. The properly is surrounded by a garden which must be nice in season. Also has gas grill and sauna for guests. Good location along the east coast

Relaxing stay at the Whale house. The room is amazing!
Only thing is the trees need to be trimmed to have a better view of the water.

Place was very clean, very easy to find. Beautiful when you could see around the trees. Only complaint was the noise (footsteps) coming from upstairs every morning. If you wanted to sleep in this was not happening. Hot tub in the humpback room was very noisy when jets are on, also the view was blocked by trees. Overall we enjoyed our stay, cute property, and great attention to detail.

The hosts were great, the place was clean, everything we needed for a short stay was there. Everything was marked well, easy to find, and clear instructions were set out for the use of amenities in/around the property. Bonus points for the cruelty free products that were supplied.
There were a couple of small things that would have really gave it that extra something though. It would have been nice to have a little space to sit outside on such nice days, even just enough room for a patio chair or two. The hot tub was nice but didn’t feel as private as we would have liked due to the patio above, and the large windows from one of the other suites just off to the side. The curtains do provide some privacy but we were still very aware of the people/things around us. Speaking of privacy all of the google assistants seamed to be linked to the same account so at one point we were listening to music that was being controlled from somewhere else in the house. It took a minute to figure out what was happening. Considering the capabilities for drop ins, and the built in cameras, having all of those linked felt a little concerning.

I stayed at Orca Room - A lovely room with a small kitchenette and a bathroom. There was nicely scented shower gel and shampoo. The location is very quiet, right on the water. If you're a light sleeper, you might want to bring earplugs, as the rooms are a bit noisy. I was prepared, so everything was fine. Thank you.

We stayed for 2 nights at the Orca room. It is a smaller room and does not have an AC. Overall this was reasonable value for the price. It was perfect for the 2 of us.

Lovely location, right on the East Coast Trail. Easy to find. Sauna was wonderful. Room was great - cooking facilities were nice to reduce eating out costs.
Could hear people in adjacent rooms (just everyday noises, they were not being particularly noisy/partying).

Beautiful spot and we enjoyed ourselves but the heat was off when we arrived and it took quite a while it to come on. In December to arrive and it be freezing was disappointing.

Hot tub was good. Not powerful enough for me tho lol didnt seem like the jets were strong. Next time we'll do the bigger suit for the bigger hot tub. Personally i likes to have a tv in the room cuz the little google screens are so tiny. Its just how i like to relax is all. The hostess was AMAZING!!! She chatted with us like shes known us for yrs!! Very sweet friendly lady. Id recommend the whale house guest house to allmy friend's and family. We're looking forward to returning there another yr.

We did not appreciate all the rules and the pictures are completely misleading. I would definitely not recommend this property overly priced for the amenities you get.

Humpback whale room is super small and not comfortable. A bed. Two hard chairs. Small high windows. Fine for a night. There are hiking trails near by. There is a hot tub for those who like, outside of the room.
