What guests think

Digby Pines Golf Resort and Spa blends historic charm, scenic bay views, and friendly, accommodating staff with an iconic outdoor pool, creating a relaxing setting that many guests enjoy for its atmosphere, grounds, and classic character.

Rooms and bathrooms are often small and dated, with thin walls, aging fixtures, and occasional plumbing or noise issues. A persistent pain point is the main elevator frequently being out of service, leaving lots of stairs and limited accessibility for those with mobility needs. Food receives strong praise overall—particularly the buffet breakfast and on-site restaurant—though some note slow service, cold items, or higher prices. Expect a charming heritage stay with standout staff and views, but older infrastructure.

The staff were excellent however, the elevators were out of order and has been so for 2 months, this is unacceptable. Entry into the hotel has several steps which makes it practically un acess able for anyone with mobility issues. Staffing appeared sparse at best & staff should not have to leave the desk to take luggage up to the third floor, had we had known the elevators were not working we would not have booked. The price was definitely too high for a place without an elevator and we would have had to go down more stairs had we decided to stay for breakfast

It is an exceptional place. Lovely area, nice rooms, interesting and good meals. EXCEPT The one and only elevator has been broken for over a month. Third floor? 60 steep stairs with your heavy suitcase. 60 stairs for the 70 plus year olds in the bus emptying off in front of you. With canes and hateful stuff to say to you when they leave you. Missing the right parts? Call the biggest supplier area on this company in North America and have them flown in!! Why? Because every week you are asking old people to crawl up to the third floor.

We recently stayed at The Pine Golf Course Resort in Nova Scotia, and unfortunately, our experience was quite disappointing given the price. The hotel is extremely run-down, with several issues during our stay. Our bathroom had mold and residue, and there was no soap provided. The room was quite small, and the elevators were not functioning. Additionally, the gym was broken. Overall, the resort did not offer the quality we expected for the cost, and we hope they can address these concerns for future guests.

No elevator service was a huge problem especially on the 3rd floor. Tablecloths were crumpled - not ironed. The window in our room was sealed shut, so no fresh air. Pool was excellent. Food was very good. Rooms were as quiet as could be in an OLD hotel where activities in adjacent rooms can be heard!

The breakfast buffet was awesome! The elevator was not working so the stair climbing was a bit challenging however the staff were very willing to carry our luggage up to our room at check in and at check out. It would be very helpful if there was a ramp /walkway for bringing in luggage from our car into the hotel and wheelchair accessability)!! Loved staying here!! A beautiful view of the bay and lots of charm!!

I found the room a bit in the old side. Single paned window that sweated bad, running down to the window ledge. Thankfully the curtains are heavy which kept the chill from the window at bay. This hotel does not have designated parking for people staying there. The parking in the evening is taken up by vehicles utilizing the bar. The handicap parking is only 2 spots, makes it difficult when the driver is disabled. The rims are quiet and comfortable.

Room was old and not well maintained. There was no fan in the bathroom and both the tub grout/caulking and sink tap surround had seen better days. (Not well cleaned) The windows were mildewed. The toilet flush broke when flushing so I had to take the top of the tank and pull the flap. Glad we only stayed one night.

The hotel is on beautiful grounds overlooking the bay and city of Digby. We stayed in the main hotel which is in need of a lot of upkeep. While not dirty, the room was very musty and the bathroom had mildew on the tiles and was generally not in great shape for what we paid to stay there. Please note, the pool is really nice but there is absolutely NO hot tub as stated on Expedia. The location is Ok, but walking in to Digby is not a good choice as the road is busy and no shoulder to walk on. The staff were not friendly or rude. They answered our requests but not with any suggestion they enjoyed doing it. All said I would not stay here again. Based on the price we paid I would expect much more all around.

This resort was built in the early 1900’s & the renovations have not kept up with the times. The common areas are lovely & spacious & the gardens are nicely maintained. The room we had was close to 300CAD with taxes so I was expecting a bit of luxury. The bathroom was straight out of a 60’s motel, including threadbare towels. The bed & bedding were fine. We could hear noises from the hall, the room beside us & the room above us. It was like the walls were cardboard. There were some decaf (!) Nespresso pods but no machine (?). No fridge. Plastic & paper cups. Disappointing. The buffet breakfast was quite nice.

Noelle at front desk was excellent. We staying in main building. Bed was VERY comfortable. Although it is an older building, it was still pleasant. Walls NOT soundproof. We could easily hear the people next door talking even though they were not talking loud, and could even hear their phone notifications. Hauling luggage up the stairs at front entrance and to room floor was a bit inconvenient. Food in restaurant was good and appreciated the complimentary breakfast. Overall I was happy with the accomodations.

It's a lovely resort; although older, it is well-maintained. We had an interesting room with 2 full bathrooms. The staff is very friendly, and an excellent free buffet breakfast is included. One downside is that the controls for the heat pumps in the room are locked, so there is no way to override the temperature, which is bad, especially when it gets warmer. The air was not set to come on until 26 °C, which is too warm, especially when trying to sleep. We could not stay there in the summer for that reason.

The evening manager and front desk clerk on Nov 5 were also very helpful with tips and suggestions of where to go in the area and provided us with some brochures as well. The server Nov 5 for dinner at the restaurant ( think it was Aurora) was very sweet and attentive. We also had a a great complimentary hot breakfast that was served by a fun person ( believe They were named Adam?) Our room was clean and had a great view of the water. Can’t wait to return!

A beautiful property and old resort. While the room was nice and staff friendly, the elevator was out-of-order (and apparently had been for weeks). This made staying in the third floor less than ideal. Supper at the on-site restaurant was good, but most food tried on the complementary breakfast buffet was cold (e.g. sausages cold on the inside). Overall, a nice place, but would check for a working elevator.

My critism was the dining room. We waited close to an hour and half for our order. Apparently the kitchen was understaffed. Our waitress could not have been nicer. Our dish of fresh haddoch was overcooked. Such a shame. The chocolate mousse was deadly delicious.
