What guests think

At Atlantic View Motel and Cottages, travellers consistently praise very clean, updated rooms and the quiet, scenic setting with water views, while noting compact bathrooms, occasional Wi‑Fi issues, and mixed experiences with the owner’s friendliness and check‑in tone.

Many rooms are small but bright, with large front-and-back windows and views; some units include kitchenettes, porches, or full fridges, though microwaves or full cooking setups are not universal. Beach access across the road, BBQs and a communal fire pit are mentioned, and parking is easy; beds are usually comfortable but a few guests found mattresses very firm or pillows thin. Expect a peaceful, simple stay a short drive from Lunenburg rather than a full‑service hotel.

Wonderful off-the-beaten-path setting only a few miles from Lunenburg. A combo of motel rooms and brightly colored cottages. The room and grounds were spotless and appears to be recently updated. A comfortable bed and nice bedding and water views from both sides of the room. The big fire pit was a nice place to gather for the guests. Would come back!

My 4 nite stay was in a single queen cottage. It had full ammenties, kitchenette with small appliances/kitchen wear, sink etc. There’s a cute little porch with adirondack style bench seat, as well a BBQ with shared picnic table area. Although not used during my stay, there was a communal firepit surrounded by adirondack seating. The shower was quite small, but adequate. I would definitely recommend and would stay again👍

It is not walkable but Lunenburg is a short drive away. Coffee in the morning on the cabin deck and a beverage on the beach at night was relaxing. Our cabin was small but had everything we needed. Very clean and staff was welcoming and accessible.

Excellent location, across street from a beach and a pretty Lily pond behind. Stayed in one of the motel rooms. Nice decor, looks newly done. Very comfortable space. Fresh ground coffee provided for a 4 cup coffee maker versus the horrid pods, a really nice appreciated touch. Picnic tables and benches outside for sitting. Great proximity to Lunenburg Old Town and coming and going to visit the area.

We had a wonderful stay! Our motel room was clean, quiet, and bright with two large windows offering stunning views of the pond and ocean. We even spotted the Bluenose sailing by! This place has earned its spot as our go-to destination when visiting Lunenburg, Mahone Bay, Chester, and Oak Island. We highly recommend booking the Bluenose Sailing 2 1/2 hour tour and Oak Island Tour ahead of time, as they're extremely popular and sell out fast!

This little hotel is an absolute gem! We were pleasantly surprised to find a great Scandinavian decor room with an unbelievable waterfront view out a large back picture window. The new air conditioning unit was whisper quite and comfortable during a blazing heat wave. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable. The hotel is situated an an area of fabulous natural beauty with trails, which was wonderfully quite and peaceful yet convenient to Lunenburg. The drive or walk into Lunenburg along the bay affords a spectacular view of the harbour.

A full size fridge is excellent when you're travelling and preparing your own meals. Marcus the owner is very kind and helpful. Located just 2 minutes outside of 'downtown' Lunenberg where you can visit the Bluenose II and the quaint town and just 10 minutes to Mahone Bay.

When we artived at 8:00 pm, there was a note on the office door, with my name on it, saying we were in room 6 and it was unlocked. Got in the room and saw that he had used my credit card to pay for the room. Even though i was supposed to pay at check in. When i went to the office the next morning, there was nobody there. As i was about to leave, i saw a man who turned out to be the owner or manager. Dismissed my concern about leaving my paid room unlocked. Paid no attention to my suggestion that a buzzer should be provided for after hour check in. Very rude. Bathroom ridiculously small. No overhead light. Only plug in i found was behind the night table.

This motel was lovely. These units were delightful and were wonderfully decorated simply but tastefully. The kitchen was well stocked with full sized a fridge freezer which fit an entire bag of ice. The stove was a glass top and we were able to reheat a frozen pizza in the oven. You can walk to the Atlantic Ocean from the hotel though it is a shingle beach but there were lots of collectible shells and stones. We used the motel as a base. It is walking distance to Lunenburg 1.9 km

We stayed in Room 7 (cottages are also available). Appeared to be recently renovated. Small rooms and bathroom, but the full windows in both the front and the back, really opens the room up and does not feel small. TV was relatively small, to what one would expect. No onsite restaurant, but lots of options close by. Only real marginal complaint was that the fridge was not very cold.
