Everything was just as described at ArtBonavista Oceanfront. The view of the ocean was spectacular. Ruth was amazing to deal with. We would highly recommend this place and would stay here again.

Peaceful and modern

We had a great stay at this home. It was a comfortable home base for our trip to see the puffins. Only a 15 min drive to Elliston Puffin Viewing Site and close to many beautiful hikes and restaurants. The home was clean, pretty and had great views of the sea.

Spectacular

Shy to tell all cause then we’ll never get to go back! Location, cleanliness, amenities. Go for the views. Go for being in Bonavista and near other towns like Port Rexton and Trinity. Owner Ruth and the house will leave you wanting for nothin.

Absolutely stunning views — especially the sunset — in a newly constructed and very nicely decorated space. Overall rating held back by a couple of things: lack of window coverings and an eye level street light made it tough to sleep in the loft that has 2 of the 3 beds, owner did not provide check-in information in advance and then there was confusion over the check-out time (11:00 in my confirmation vs 10:00 elsewhere in the description). It was close to lots of great activities in Bonavista but was not good value for money once you include the various fees.

Incredible home with a beautiful view.

We had a very lovely stay at Ruth's home in mid-August. Her home is beautifully designed with incredible attention to detail. Lots of space, and the windows from the kitchen, living room, and loft bedroom offer stunning views of the ocean and coastline. Ruth was a terrific host, and her studio/gallery below the house is the perfect place to pick-up local artwork and gifts. We are already looking forward to our next visit. Can't say enough about this spot!

Simply Perfect

Ultra modern (recently built) property with all the latest appliances and conveniences. The owner (Ruth) is an artist and it shows in the layout, design and decor. If you are spending time in Bonavista you won’t be disappointed. The nightly sunsets from the large windows are unreal, and puffins, lighthouses, and world class hiking are close by. Don’t miss a day in historic Trinity, and the Two Whales Vegan/Vegetarian cafe comes highly recommended in Port Rexton (convenient on your way to or from the Skerwink trail).
