Guest Reviews
- Kathryn (10/5): Perfect for one or two people. - Efficient with well thought out design
- Linda (8/5): Enjoyed the deck and views of harbour activity - Our communication with the hostess was excellent, she is lovely. The suite was very clean and had everything we needed including access to laundry . Had it been a bit larger it would’ve been perfect. We walked to dinner and some of the attractions. Hide-a-bed was not very comfortable. No room for luggage once hide-a-bed was opened, had to leave suitcase in the car . Traffic noise during the night and early morning.
- wirZWEI (6/5): - Die Begrüßung und auch die Lage/Ruhe sind sehr gut. Das Bett steht direkt neben der Wand, sodass die zweite Person schwer aufs bzw vom Bett kommt. Der Wasserdruck war so schlecht, dass an Haare waschen nicht zu denken war. Die Couch ist auf einer Seite komplett verformt.
Insgesamt passt daher das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis nicht.
- John (9/5): Great place to stay - Wonderful hosts. Great having access to laundry facilities. Great location.
- Margot (4/5): Expensive for the discomfort - Sofa bed was awful
- Lillian (8/5): Clean, comfortable, friendly, good location. - Location, it was an easy walk to pubs and restaurants. View, there was a small deck that looked out over the bay which was nice. Communication was wonderful. We had a small problem that was dealt with immediately. Very friendly. The bed and linens were very comfortable. This was our final stay after a two week vacation travelling across Newfoundland. Of the other 3 places that we stayed, (which were all comparable in terms of price), this was quite a bit “cozier” than we had previously encountered. We knew in the beginning that it was an efficiency/housekeeping unit so no fault there. It just didn’t provide us with enough space for staying 3 nights. Luggage was on the floor, on the bed, off the bed, clothes in and out. There really weren’t a lot of places to put anything, which again is not a big deal. It just seemed that it was hard to get comfortable and relax. We noticed that the unit beside us had 3 different vehicles for each of the 3 nights we were there so perhaps it is better for a one or two night stop. It was clean, comfortable and the people were very friendly which is what is most important.
- Barry (10/5): Very relaxing and enjoyable. - The view of the sea. The host. The location. Can’t think of anything.
- Kaitlyn (10/5): - Laundry machines lovely host! :)
- Sandra (8/5): - Not applicable The couch i
- Reynaldo (10/5): Completely satisfied - Easy to find the place. Accessible to everything around the area. Beautiful backyard view. Room is perfect for 3 guest, big washroom, clean with very nice smell. Laundry room is available also beside the room, and most of all parking is in-front of the room, it easy to access your car if u forgot something in the car. kitchen stuff to cook with plates ,cutleries,pans and etc. coffee is so good, and with complimentary ready mix oatmeal for breakfast ,chocolate chip bar and gummy. Nice to meet the care taker (Paulette) to check on us on our check in day. I highly recommend the place if visiting bonavista.
- Carsten (8/5): Günstige, aber einfache Übernachtung - Gute Lage, einfacher Check In Sehr hellhörig zur Straße
- Cynthia and Paul (10/5): Really nice little cottage - The location was excellent.
Outside the front door, access to everything in town is within walking distance.
Out the back door a patio and BBQ right on the waterfront. Gorgeous sunsets.
Paullete was a sweetheart to grab us some propane.
Comfortable room with a little kitchen provided everything we needed to feed ourselves
The bathroom was roomy with fluffy towels and toiletries.
We did not use the laundry facilities.
I would say that it was accessible. The shower needs a little love.

- Gabrielle (9/5): Cozy Bonavista stay - Robbins by the sea was in an excellent location and we had a view of an iceberg from our window! The service was very friendly and easy to follow instructions. Room was clean and cozy. Sofa bed wasn't the comfiest
Toilet paper was very cheap

- Claire (7/5): Comfortable stay with kitchen + laundry. - Clean, good location. Hosts were very welcoming and check-in was straightforward. Well equipped kitchen and nice to have a BBQ. Really nice to have a place to do laundry. We didn't realize that the accomodation is split into two units and that we would have a neighbor. Not a big deal. The fire alarm is very very sensitive, going off even when we made toast. We felt bad for our neighbor because it probably went off 5-6 times during our stay.
- Dale (7/5): Good - Nice location within walking distance to a few places. Beautiful view. Good use a new sofa bed.
- Diane (9/5): Perfect. - Location was excellent: on the water, could smell the ocean.
Good amenities incl washer/dryer
Back deck Some traffic noise, but not a deal breaker
- Mark (10/5): Lovely site, friendly host, perfect stay. -
- Suki (8/5): Very good - Cute and location
- Yu (8/5): I like the vacation home. - I like the view of the sea for the vacation home the room is small for tow adults and a kid.
- Michele (9/5): Our stay was absolutely lovely. - The location was superb with a beautiful view of the Harbour! Everything was super clean. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to cook AND there were nummy treats waiting for us. The manager was so welcoming. She made us feel right at home. We had access to laundry, and any supplies we might need which was so appreciated. Everything was fantastic! A few items that would have been great in the suite would be a broom/dustpan, saran wrap, and salt & pepper.
- Crjford (10/5): Exceptional -
- Willem (8/5): Very good -
- Isabel (10/5): Gorgeous place, totally recommend - Beautiful little place, clean and comfortable, well equipped with everything you need. Has a nice view, and the location is awesome, walking distance to restaurants and the water. The lady who received us was very nice and helpful, making sure everything was perfect. Totally recommend this place! ❤️
- Wei (10/5): Exceptional -
- Karen (10/5): Relaxing @ the sea - The host was awesome. The view spectacular, so relaxing! The wall between the 2 units wasn't very sound proof.
- Stephens (9/5): Superb -
- Joy (8/5): We stayed 2 nights. Bonavista is a beautiful little place. - There was no breakfast. We were not told where to find the key, but everything got figured out. Place was older but clean. Hosts were very friendly. They had little snacks for us. Kitchen well stocked. Place was a little to small for us. We felt a little on the pricer side . High traffic noise
- Beth (7/5): Good -
- Russell (10/5): The room was a good size, location was great and overall it was a good stay for myself and my wife. - loved the proximity to the water, small quaint deck out back. would have preferred a king bed as both myself and wife are big people. I tried sleeping on the pullout couch bed and would not advise it to anyone. It’s in need of replacement as the mattress pad and mattress were well used and a little musty smelling.
- Winnie (10/5): Wonderful! - Wonderful view and we liked looking for sea glass on the pebble beach!
- Deborah (9/5): Superb -
- Agnieszka (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sherrie (9/5): I had a great time, I slept well and had a great stay. - The keys were in the mailbox when we arrived but Paulette was there the assist us. Paulette was awesome and extremely helpful. The location was great as it was close to everything. The view of the dock and ocean from the balcony was great. The kitchen had everything that we needed to prepare meals. Bathroom was clean. There was a sewing kit and flashlight for us to use if needed. On-site laundry was a bonus. Cute little room with parking in the front.
The bowl of treats on the table was a fabulous touch. There were packets of oatmeal, Welch’s and cookies. The pullout bed is alittle old and the room decor is getting alittle dated but overall a fabulous stay.
- Dennis (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent location for sightseeing
Excellent food
The owners were awesome, helpful and live right across the street.
They treat you like family ❣
- Anonymous (9/5): Superb -
- Lindsay (10/5): Exceptional - Great location, ocean view! The gentleman who met us to give us the keys is lovely and came right over when we got there.
- Joe (7/5): Good - Great to have host living nearby and very helpful with information as well as helping us use the laundry. Couch is very low and difficult for older visitors to navigate. Had to put pillows on it and it was still difficult to use
Toilet is an older one and is very low and , again, difficult for older folks. Suggest you replace it with a modern version (higher and with stronger flush action).
- John (10/5): Great amenities in an ideal scenic location - Superb location. Thanks for the laundry! Kitchen had all amenities. Owners have thought of everything. Couldn’t stay long enough 😥
- Alexandra (10/5): We were happy there - The room and the location. It was the best hotel we stayed during our 7 days trip over Newfoundland Maybe it would be more convenient if there are more shelves in the room.

Deck was a great place to see the harbour have a drink and BBq dinner. Also a lovely touch of oatmeal and snacks on the table, tea and coffee was also provided. You can hear some noise from the neighbours from the other unit. And the doors slaming otherwise no problems or concerns.

- Donald (8/5): Enjoyed the facilities and location here during our 2-week, vacation across Newfoundland. - The host owner lives accross the street so he is available to answer any questions or address any issues. Well equiped studio apartment. Good location to see sights on the Bonavista penninsula including Elliston where the Puffins come during the summer. No concerns about the facilities provided. Some people might find the space just adequate if there are three of them.
- Barb (10/5): Exceptional -
- Hasnat (10/5): Book it! - Beautiful small property overlooking the sea! If you are bit of hesitant seeing the number of reviews on this property, I can assure you, no worries. 🙂 Book it. You won't regret. Perfect for a three members family/group size. Nothing!
- Jennifer (8/5): Very good -
- Jean (9/5): Superb -
- Sharon (10/5): Clean, comfortable, convenient place for a visit to Bonavista! - It was so easy getting keys. We just let them know estimated arrival time snd Mr. Robbin Sr lives across the road and he came right over when we arrived.
The rooms were really clean! Had everything we needed. Comfortable bed, couch, table and chairs, kitchenette, clean bathroom, TV, great little deck with a table and chairs, facing the ocean!
Appreciated the little dish of snacks on the table! Nice touch! There was nothing we didn’t like. One suggestion would be to put a mirror on the wall in living/bedroom area, so one guest can do hair/makeup while other guest is using washroom!
- Janet (10/5): Exceptional - It was a beautiful view of the ocean
- Justin (10/5): Amazing! - Incredible hosts. Place was perfect, great view of the ocean, we can't wait to return! Nothing. Everything was perfect!
- Suzanne (10/5): Bonavista by the sea with a great view - We were met in person upon arrival with the keys and a tour of the place. Everything we needed was provided and it was easy to find the location. The view is incredible, and it’s right next to the water! This unit is perfect for a couple or a family with young children, but it might be too tight for 4 adults. We were 3 adults and it was ok.
