Spectacular!

This property is not your ‘typical’ PEI cottage. I would more accurately describe it as a waterfront vacation home! It is spacious, beautifully decorated and spotless!! The kitchen is well equipped and all the extras left us wanting for nothing. Location was fantastic, was peaceful in a tiny waterfront community. Sheila was very responsive if we needed anything at all. Highly recommend this home with stunning views and a perfect host! Thanks Sheila for everything. If able to I would have rated 8/5!

Awesome Property

The property is located within the perfect location of PEI. All the amenities you can think of for your stay was well provided. All necessary beach supplies were made available. The hot tub was great. If you're a cyclist like some of us, Brackley Beach is the perfect spot to cycle and explore. The host was great and quick to respond when needed. I highly recommend this location for your stay in PEI.

Absolutely Perfect

The Dunes Drift was a total gem. The location was central, in a very nice little neighbourhood and right on the water. The views were incredible. We loved sitting out first thing in the morning, and in the evenings while the sun set. It was so peaceful and quiet. Even though you can see the neighbours, it felt secluded. The grounds around the cottage were very well maintained and there was a nice hot tub and kayak to use. Inside the cottage was extremely clean and very nicely decorated. I have never stayed at a rental with such a well stocked kitchen. It had everything we needed, and more. The bedrooms were all a good size and it was really nice to have 2 bathrooms. We will most definitely be back again!

Week away

We had a great time staying here. The house was exactly as pictured and the view was great. The home had everything we needed and even a welcome basket which was so nice. We were a group of 3 couples and there was enough seating and dishes for all. Loved our stay and will be back

Beautiful, serene stay on north side of PEI

My cousin and I stayed three nights. The water view is outstanding. The house had everything we needed, and it was very clean. Host Sheila was always quick to respond via text, including restaurant recommendations. PEI is small enough that the location was the perfect base for days trips across the island. I would definitely stay here again.

Loved the open concept, cleanliness, hot tub and view of the bay. They have everything organized extremely well and we couldn’t think of anything that was missed. The house is in a quiet, well kept small community that is central to the whole island and a quick drive to Charlottetown.

Perfect family home base

A perfect spot for a family getaway! We loved our week on Brackley Bay - the well-appointed house made it so easy to just relax. We had plenty of space, and appreciated the kayak, life jackets, sand toys, etc. Being right at the waterfront was a real treat, and we enjoyed the hot tub every night while looking at the stars. Highly recommend this property!

Wonderful stay

My family had a great time in Brackley Beach. The view is beautiful from this property with large windows to enjoy it! The beach is within 5 minutes and is not very busy. Great soft sand and surprisingly warm water. We also did all the Anne of Green Gables sites from here. Everything we wanted to do was within a half hour. We would love to stay here again.

Brackley beach

Our stay was great. The host responded to emails quickly and check in process was easy. The pictures did not do the house justice- such a nice view and was easy to access the areas of PEI we wanted to see. Welcoming touches and a fully stocked house were much appreciated. The parks pass was a nice bonus and we used it most days. I wish I could have stayed a week longer!
