West Paradise Vacations from $431

This property offers an authentic Nova Scotia experience. Kim is a natural as a hostess. She is pleasant, accommodating and informative. She is also a good cook. Make sure you have the lobster boil! The property, which is oceanside, is close to the local attractions, especially the beaches. The amenities are more than satisfactory. I had the best sleep of the 2 weeks spent in Nova Scotia. We arrived as guests and left as friends.

Our kitchenette room was very spacious and we looked out on to the beautiful lake. We had table and chairs on the deck which was nice to sit at and have a glass of wine before going to dinner. There was no ac and the room became very hot during the day. Only 2 tiny windows were avaible to open and only one would open. The screen had a fist sized hole in it. There was a very old style box fan which did not deal with the heat in the room.It was a 50's style room which they had attempted to update. There were only 2 lamps in the room which provided inadequate light. I had to dust the room since it had not been dusted. Our room was never vacuumed or the bathroom cleaned during our 6 day stay. The kitchen sink didn't have a dishcloth or tea towel when we arrived. Eventually we received 2 dish cloths, no tea towel. We eventually received a towel bath mat, none the first day. There was no rubber bath mat and no grab bars for the tub. There was a new white toilet in the bathroom and the sink and tub were a weird color green( not avocado) from some distant era. Luckily there were new taps at the sink and a new shower fixture with good water pressure. All in all, we loved the location and the size of the suite but otherwise it was a bust! Definitely not worth $170 a night. Even on cool days the suite was sweltering. The old fashioned 50's style windows need replacing.

Beautiful and comfortable place and lovely staff!
