Having spent the previous five days at inns, we were looking forward to staying in a more welcoming and friendly atmosphere and Elaine's didn't disappoint. The B&B is ideally located, approximately 40 minutes from St. John’s airport and at the beginning of the Irish Loop. The main road through Witless Bay can be busy at times, but the house is... More

I stayed at Elaine's B&B in Witless Bay, Newfoundland, during my hike of the East Coast Trail in September/October 2010. Elaine's is a warm friendly place to cosy-up in after a hard day's walk. The views are spectacular; the welcome is friendly, and the breakfasts and breakfast ambience are super. Elaine even took us, by car, next morning to the... More

Great service and friendly - Elaine is ready to help and makes sure you have a comfortable stay. We were lucky to have a large room with bay windows overlooking the bay, en-suite and a fireplace. Our stay was very comfortable. Elaine's place is on the Irish loop, and close to bird and whale watching excursions (they also offer their... More

We stayed at Elaines only one night (July 10th) but wish we had stayed a week. We reserved Room #1 months earlier, it has a king bed, ensuite bath and the most beautiful view of the reserve and Witless Bay. It is the best room in the house. The room and the whole house is spotless and very tastefully decorated.... More

My husband and I recently had the pleasure of staying at Elaine's Band B overlooking Witless Bay and the Witless Bird Preserve. Had we known that Elaine's was such a short, pleasant drive from St.John's ( about 30 minutes), we would have stayed there longer and made a couple of day trips into the city. First, the view from Elaine's... More

Elaine's is the perfect spot to get to from St John's airport, if you're off to drive the Irish Loop in the south. It was half an hour from the airport, 200 m off the highway, right on the ocean and it felt like going to your favourite relatives house. It was spotlessly clean, breakfast was superb and beds luxurious.... More

Our very first stay at a B&B was enjoyable to the tenth degree. Our three night stay extended to four nights when we were treated to comfort and a warm hostess. Elaine and her family set a high standard for us in the future at B&B's. Elaine's busy family always to the time to chat and make us feel like... More

I visited Newfoundland with four other bird photographers and spent the final night in Witless Bay at Elaine's Bed & Breakfast. The first thing I noticed is the cleanliness and how new all of the furniture, floors and walls appeared. You know the expression "You can eat off of the floors", well that is absolutely true here. The next thing... More

Elaine bent over backwards to make our stay memorable. From hearty breakfasts to boiling lobsters we bought for dinner she was the perfect hostess. She had tips for hikes our group took in the area and she made us feel that we were part of her family. More

We absolutely could not have been any more pleased than we were with our four-day and three-night stay at Elane's Bed & Breakfast by the Sea on Witless Bay in Newfoundland!! We loved staying in such a wonderfully clean, attractively decorated, and welcoming home! Our bedroom was spacious, quiet, and very comfortable. It had plenty of closet space, a television,... More
