We had such a relaxing stay. The layout was perfect for our family - two adults and two 11-year-olds - and had everything we needed from linens and towels to kitchenware (hello lobster and oysters!). Short drive to nearby beaches and yummy restaurants. The hosts were wonderful to deal with - quick and clear communication. We would stay here again.

Sunset Cove was the perfect home away from home for our week on Prince Edward Island. The house is beautiful, tastefully decorated, and so warm and inviting. It's clear the family who owns it has put a great deal of love and thought into every detail, and we felt lucky to enjoy it for the week.The house was spotless, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. Little touches like cozy blankets throughout and the fireplace made it especially inviting. And the setting! We loved waking up to the water each morning, and Sunset Cove certainly lives up to its name. The sunsets were spectacular.We also loved the location. It was a great home base for exploring the central part of the island, from Anne of Green Gables and nearby beaches like Thunder Cove to Kensington, Summerside, Charlottetown, and Victoria-by-the-Sea. Even visiting in the off-season, we found plenty to see and do.We couldn't have asked for a more comfortable place to call home during our visit. What a lovely property!

Ŵe really enjoyed our stay in this awesome home with amazing views in a peaceful and quiet area near great beaches. The home was perfectly set up for us and we wish we could have stayed longer. Morning coffees with the views from the living room are top notch! And the sunsets were epic too over the basin!

Beautiful cottage

This cottage was beautiful and made for a relaxing stay in PEI. The cottage is modern with hot water and air conditioning, and was very clean when we arrived. Nearly everything we needed was provided by the host, we only had to purchase our groceries. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

This little cottage by the water was everything we imagined and more. From the moment we arrived, we felt so welcomed — there was a thoughtful note waiting for us, raspberry cordial, a beautiful little PEI canvas bag, and even a fishing pole for us to enjoy during our stay.The cottage itself was spotless and had absolutely everything we needed for a perfect vacation week. Our hosts were incredibly responsive and helpful whenever we had questions, which made our stay feel easy and relaxing.This place made us fall in love with PEI even more, and we will absolutely stay here again when we visit in the future. My boys have not stopped talking about how much they loved the view and all the outdoor space around the cottage. We even got to watch an adorable little fox wander by, which became one of those unexpected memories we’ll always remember.It truly has been such a memorable week, and we’re so grateful for such a wonderful place to stay.

What a beautiful cottage. Perfectly situated by the water, next to a campground so easy access to ice cream shop, cafe, restaurant, general store and laundromat (for large loads). Walking distance to spectacular beach and sandstone formations. Cozy and well appointed with everything you need to feel at home. Easy to check in and out. Highly recommend this property. Photos are from the nearby fields and beach.

Our stay in Darnley was quintessential PEI living. This cottage is just as pictured, lovely! We loved the “ocean-to-table” shop, Basin View Seafood, located a short drive from the cottage, where we purchased fresh seafood for dinners. The only thing worth mentioning on the negative side is, don’t plan on doing laundry as the washer/dryer is less than efficient. Otherwise, wonderful cottage for East Coast living!

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your stay in Darnley and experienced that quintessential PEI charm. We're glad the cottage met your expectations and that you had a chance to enjoy fresh local seafood from Basin View — it's one of our favourites too! We also appreciate your feedback about the washer/dryer. We are currently looking to buy a new one this year, so we can offer large washing and drying loads. Thanks again for staying with us — we’d love to welcome you back for more East Coast living anytime! Warm regards, Jillian & Menno

Great location, modern comfort, cute and cozy!

Beautiful and cozy cottage with amazing water views of the Darnley Basin. The location is great with gorgeous beaches nearby at Twin Shores and Thundercove (no life guards) and an easy drive to Cavendish and Green Gables shore attractions. The cottage is part of a small sub division and there are a few other cottages behind this one, however the water view is unobstructed, with a large yard in front and cottage windows facing the water.We appreciated the modern decor and updated interior of the cottage, with new furnishings, which made our stay very comfortable and relaxing. All the amenities you need, including laundry and a fully equipped kitchen, barbecue and fire pit, and lots of room to spread out, for family vacation stay. Also, the hosts were very responsive and helpful, and quick to answer any questions we had!

5 out of 5! No notes!The views were magic. The cottage was perfect. I can’t say enough. If you are planning a trip to PEI the Darnley area was surprisingly close to Cavendish, Green Gables, amazing food, and wonderful trails… not to mention Thundercove Beach. But also WAY more quiet and peaceful than being right in the Cavendish hubbub. We visited in early August and were met with the most amazing weather too.Menno and Jillian were the perfect hosts. Very considerate, and thoughtful, and prompt to respond to any questions we had. The cottage was clean, the kitchen had everything you’d need. You won’t regret booking here.
