We ended up choosing this place to be married! We wanted a cozy, intimate wedding, and this was the perfect location. We had stayed once before in one of the garden suites, and have eaten there many times. It has the perfect combination of being able to stay there, eat there, and have a wedding on the beach! The rooms were very comfortable, clean, and have beautiful views. The garden suites allow pets, which was a bonus! The restaurant and gardens are gorgeous, and the grassy lawn beside the beach belongs to them too, for outdoor ceremonies. We had ours outside, and if you have a summer wedding you could also eat outside(although the restaurant is beautiful). All staff there have always been super attentive, friendly, and accommodating. We had a few different dietary requirements such as Vegan and Gluten-Free, and they were very happy to work it all out. They helped arrange everything and made sure it was easy! Five stars all the way, definitely recommend!!

Our room was beautiful and we had a great view of the ocean. You can hear the sound of running water coming from the brook that flows by the lodge. We had a King bed which was super comfy and big. We couldn't try the restaurant as it was closed, other than that, I would highly recommend this place.

Stayed in the Penthouse East room. View was great loved that it was super quiet in the room and everything was in great shape, neat and tidy. 6 min drive I to town was convenient as well. Would stay again.

Very nice place, clean and cozy. Nice view if you book the penthouse, but you could easily hear your neighbours if they are loud. We had to go to work the day after, and our neighbor was partying in a lodge!! Until 3 am... no afterhour to call to... We left the island sleep deprived and tired... not the best start to a week... they honoured one night of our stay, but money can’t compensate sometimes... ****Food from their restaurant was beyond delicious! And at a very reasonable price * trying their restaurant is a must!****

Beautiful rooms. Spacious and wonderful decor. Great seaside view and you can't beat a jacuzzi tub. Chasters restaurant is excellent. Haven't had this fine quality food in a long time. It was very special to be able to walk down inside stairs to the restaurant right beside our room door.

Can’t say enough good things about our stay here. Stayed in the garden suite that felt like our own house. Staff were super nice, especially Lee that served us for dinner and went above and beyond to help us with drinks for our room. Look forward to staying here again.

My husband and I recently got married at Bonniebrook Lodge this past summer and it was the BEST decision! It truly exceeded our expectations, from the unique location by the ocean, the very comfortable accommodations, the attentive staff, and the food!! The food was incredible! All of our guests raved about having such a great time at Bonniebrook Lodge! We can't wait to stay here again

Spent two months so far staying here during the week for work. The location provides a stunning ocean view either from the rooms (depending on which room you have) or otherwise they have a small private oceanfront garden. The rooms are comfortable and well maintained and the service has been great.
