A delightful place to relax and rejuvenate...Phil & Jane were fabulous hosts! Located minutes from the Confederation Bridge it is centrally located to all amenities on PEI. There is access to the beach and be sure to book the master suite to enjoy the adult waterpark (you will never want to leave the tub or shower). The food was delicious... More

My wife and I love seclusion and we found it here at Blue Heron Retreat. Although Wharf Rd was not on our GPS forCape Traverse, we easily found the Rd and followed it to the beach and the eroded estuary, finding the perfect picturesque setting to coddle our wearied souls. We were warmly greeted by the neighbour's labrador and also... More

When trying to describe our stay at The Blue Heron Retreat, clichés cannot help themselves but overpower our vocabulary: highlight of our trip; delightful; the best B&B on the Island; the epitome of PEI hospitality. Although they all accurately describe our experience, they do not do it justice by the mere fact that Phil and Jane’s B&B is far from... More

The P.E.I. Blue Heron Retreat B & B is one of the best; plain and simple. Over the last five years I’ve travelled around the world lodging mostly in B and B`s, and Jane and Phil`s Blue Heron Retreat is in the top 5% worldwide of the 150+ places where I`ve stayed. Beginning with the hosts’ hospitality (friendly and warm... More

Great location on the shore of Northumberland Strait with a Beautiful view of the strait and Confederation Bridge. Without the aid of the printed directions they had emailed to us we did have some difficulty in finding the place and stopped twice to ask for directions. There was not so much as a single sign offering either directions to the... More

We recently visited Prince Edward Island and our first night became the criterion for every B & B of our traveling future. The Blue Heron at Cape Traverse turned out to be the kind of Inn that every traveler dreams of. There were four things that really made it stand out. The hospitality of the innkeepers, the food, the atmosphere... More

Last month we had a chance to stay at the Blue Heron Bed and Breakfast. It turned out to be one of the best guest house that I ever stayed. Both Phil and Jane are extremely friendly and helpful. I really loved their hospitality. During my stay at the guest house, I never felt that I am away from home.... More

We loved the Blue Heron Retreat. The house is gorgeous and so very relaxing. Lovely views from every window and the view from the back deck could take your breath away. The view of the Confederation Bridge was spectacular. We enjoyed a swim in the ocean which is only a very short walk from the house and very private. Had... More

We just spent a couple of days in the Blue Heron Retreat B&B, which is located on the south shore of PEI. And what a stay!!! The Blue Heron Retreat only opened its doors in July this year, so when we booked it in June, we were, of course, a little nervous. But their website sounded so interesting (even though... More

A well balanced critique promotes growth and "bettinaNguy" were correct in their comment that our location required a drive for evening dining. In fact, we were not aware that we are only minutes away from an excellent gourmet but casual dining room located in Victoria by the Sea. The Landmark Cafe has a long history of dining excellence and is... More
