Blue Crest Cottages

Stuck in the 1980s. Housekeeping cottage and you clean before you leave which is normal but I wonder if the cottage is ever professionally deep cleaned? Needs serious updating- caulk in bathroom is gross. Needs basic linens- like a bath mat. Hair dryer did not work and obviously dirty. Mattresses are extremely old , so are the linens which leaves me suspicious. No instructions to tv. I’ve stayed in better at the same price point so that’s sad. Kitchen has everything you need. It’s a great location with a grocery store a mile away. Excellent location and the cottages sit in a huge piece of land that is pretty. Family friendly for sure! Very friendly staff but a bit of a language barrier.

We stayed for four nights on our first time in PEI. Blue Crest wasn't a "destination" in itself, but it was a great base for our travels. We had a 2 bedroom cottage. Some thoughts: - The owners are great hosts: very kind, friendly and passionate. Our door lock broke and was quickly repaired by the owner. -The location is perfect, close (but not too close) to Cavendish and all parts of PEI national park, and in the center of the island if you want to explore either the eastern or western shores. -Don't believe other reviews that state you need to clean the cottage prior to check out. This is NOT the case. There is a sign on the inside of the cottage that indicates this, but this is from the prior owners and NO LONGER APPLIES. (Note to owners: remove the sign.) -Cottages are comfortable; they could definitely use a renovation but I'm sure the owners are working on it. Lousy towels, and some smelled like they were sitting around too long without being freshened. Shower water temperature was hard to modulate; I hereby decree that all hotels need to eliminate the separate hot and cold water faucets for a single lever. Only one A/C unit, in the living room; it might be hard to cool off both bedrooms on a hot day. -Great pool, and especially, great hot tub; this is an amenity not found in many PEI properties.
