Oceanstone Resort & Nordic Spa with Fitness Centre

This is a wonderful place to come and unwind and be at peace with yourself and nature. Great opportunity to get grounded. It is a small, intimate setting with everyone on the same journey. A great place to come by yourself or reflect and share the experience with others. Staff are very friendly and helpful and the venue is very clean. Relax by the fire, enjoy cucumber or lemon water, and don't forget the chamomile tea (it is very calming). See you again soon.

First stay at resort. Beautiful location, staff are very friendly and accommodating. Room - we had Rhubarb room #2 which is over the kitchen end of the restaurant so we knew when booking that it would be noisier so just be aware that it is - the hours of operation are 11:30 to 8 however they need to prep in the morning so they are there early at 6:30-7 am so no sleeping in unless you have ear plugs this is not a criticism just an awareness. We were good with it as we got up early to get about our day. The view from the deck on our room was spectacular and a great place to sit as long as the weather is good. Bed was comfortable, room is small but again that is ok. The room does not have a chair to sit in which I did make the suggestion to add even a couple of good folding chairs in the closet that could be used. The shower was heavily impacted by the kitchen as well which I also let the resort know about. Overall the room was fine it could just be better with a couple of little tweaks. The common areas are lovely and allow you to enjoy different areas of the resort. The breakfast is bar none the best included breakfast we have had. It is a buffet style, but they take the extra step to make your eggs and bagels fresh to order. The breakfast staff were very welcoming. We would recommend a stay at this resort and we will return.

We recently stayed here in Room #1, and while we appreciated the friendly staff and the wonderful complimentary breakfast, we did encounter a number of issues that made our experience less comfortable than we had hoped. To start, the room itself was quite small—particularly for two guests—and we were surprised to be placed between larger groups. This contributed to a lack of privacy, especially because of the shared balcony design. We were disappointed to find that guests from adjacent rooms frequently walked across our balcony to visit one another. This made us feel like we had no private space to relax or enjoy the view, and it’s something we would not expect from a hotel that advertises a peaceful getaway. The air conditioning unit was another issue—it was a window unit installed in the only operable window, and unfortunately, it was extremely loud. It made sleeping difficult and blocked any chance of enjoying natural ventilation. Additionally, there was no in-room refrigerator or access to ice. While there is a shared fridge in a common area, it felt uncomfortable sharing a refrigerator with guests from six other rooms—especially when storing personal food or medication. Safety was also a concern. The room’s small size made the footboard particularly hazardous. Both my husband and I ended up bumping into it multiple times, and we strongly suggest adding some kind of padding or redesign to prevent future guests from injury. One final note: it felt confusing and a bit off-putting that the restaurant directly below the rooms seemed adamant that they were unaffiliated with the hotel. We chose this place because of its charm and the promise of a relaxing, boutique experience. While we truly appreciated the hospitality of the staff and the quality of the breakfast, the issues above had a significant impact on our overall stay.

My Wife and I came for the 3 hour Hydro thermo experience, I think that’s what it’s called. We also when for a couples Sea-weed wrap. Its not a wrap, but a Sea-weed scrub. It was Awesome!! The whole experience was so relaxing and mind clearing. I couldn’t ask for a better way to relax. As a guy, I don’t really care about how soft my skin is, but holy smokes, I was like silk. Lol. The amazing people that work there are so fantastic, waiting on us like we were royalty!!!

The spa is beautiful, clean and staff was nice. Some drawbacks, in my opinion, the hot tubs are not hot. And despite us being asked not to leave belongings on the seats, many guests did this, and there were no places in the shade for us to relax. Staff did walk around to ask folks to stop talking, but didn't address this issue.

As a gift from our kids, we booked for a weekend in March. We were very pleased with the staff who checked us in and explained where everything was. When we got to our room a very nice welcome card and chocolates were awaiting us. The whole weekend was very relaxing, the room was really clean and warm...and the area was really beautiful!!! We will definitely be returning and highly recommend Oceanstone....

Our experience at Oceanstone couldn’t have been better. Everyone treated us so kindly. We felt welcome and cared for. The body treatments and hydrothermal experience reminded me of spas in Europe. |Forever a special place for us. We will return each year. Make reservations at Rhubarb for dinner, it’s delicious!

We travelled around NS and stayed at the resort one afternoon and night. We had a lovely couples massage that was followed up with the out door saunas and pools. Our only regret is not allowing ourselves time for a second night. We would recommend this resort to everyone.
