Loving the Bayview Motel I reserved two nights; decided to stay another three. They are very kind owners and they make sure you are looked after. Very clean, fridge, hotplate, microwave, front deck with table and chairs right next to the beautiful oceanside town of Alma witch has several beaches and loads of walking trails. Beautiful view of the night sky while listening to the soubd of running water. The stars are definitely brighter at The Bayview Motel. Big thanks for the great vacation!

We stayed in a room on the lower level of the building which had a lovely walk out deck with some planted pots and a quaint garden. There was a cafe table and chairs in front of garden doors which allowed for an al fresco feel to enjoying breakfast or a glass of wine. The room was well finished and very comfortable. I would not hesitate to stay again.

We stayed two nights in Motel rooms one and three, One had full kitchen the other kitchenette. We purchased local seafood and cooked dinner in the room. In addition, we cooked breakfast and lunch. Very close to Fundy National Park. We were two couples in our mid 60s.

We booked a motel room for 3 nights but wasn’t able to get the housekeeping unit(#1) as it was reserved for one of the nights. I mentioned it was our preference. Pleasantly surprised, when we arrived Linda had us booked into room 1 as there was a cancellation, which we appreciated.

Everything was very clean and more than ample dishes/utensils provided. Loved the bed/headboard with the lights! We really enjoyed having tea/coffee in the room. Linda and Jim are wonderful hosts and very knowledgeable of all there is to do, see and where to eat, etc. in beautiful Fundy region. PS: great seafood to enjoy in Alma!

Reasonably priced and well kept property with many personal touches. Even with all the COVID restrictions, we felt at home. Recommend the Bayview Motel and Chalets for a Staycation when checking out the Fundy area❗️
Blessings

I have stayed at Bayview multiple times in the past 10 years. Each time never disappoints. The owners Jim & Linda are always very pleasant and accommodating. They always remember me from my previous visits and are always willing to chat.

They have done some wonderful renovations over the recent years and the stay is always 5 star comfortable. Each time I return to Alma, I plan to stay at Bayview.

Motorcycle tour. Stayed here one night in late Sept 2021.

Right beside Fundy Park.

Really nice, helpful owners. Nice room, basic but nice with everything I needed. Reasonable price.

Very happy. Would stay again and would recommend to family/friends.

My husband and I stayed at the Bayview on the August 1st, 2022 long weekend and stayed on the top floor of the two story chalet. It was beautiful and newly renovated. It had a full kitchen and living room with wrap around deck. Everything you need for a night or a week. The new owners were super nice and helpful. We ate at the Breakfast Nook on the property and it was really good. We will not hesitate to go again and stay with them.

Thanks so much,

K & C Kinney

The hosts are very welcoming! The cottage was spotless and looked like a high end hotel. The check in process was super easy and hassle free. It was our anniversary and they left a nice bottle of wine, chocolates and a beautiful note. We will be returning again and again. Thank you

I can not say anything about the cabins, but the motel room was not very good at all.
It looked pretty outdated, and was not very clean. We decided even to skip the shower.
But the main issue were paper-thin walls - we were able to clearly hear people next door just talking. We had to use earplugs.

Responded Aug 13, 2013
I have given a great deal of thought to your review and have concluded that you may have reviewed the wrong motel. You have rated the location as excellent but at 1 km from the Village and the Bay, location is considered our weakest point, especially since even our 'bayview' has been obscured by trees. You have also rated the value and the sleep quality as 2 out of 5 but our nightly rate of $85.00 per night is considered by most guests as very good value for this area and our beds are brand new queen sized Beautyrests! You also mention not wanting to use the shower but we have full 4 piece baths. Finally, we actively solicit feedback from our guests through in room comment cards and we have never been made aware of an issue of cleanliness or soundproofing. I have also checked my records and do not have a record of a guest visiting from Chicago in August. Please check your receipt. If you did indeed stay at the Bayview in Alma, then you have our sincere apology for your poor experience here. However, I truly believe you will find that you have accidentally reviewed the wrong motel.

Stayed there June 19, 2018, no screen on front door, had to rent propane for b-b-q, tv lost the satellite signal, service was so so had to ring buzzer and wait to get checked in, definitely not worth the price charged, will be visiting Alma but won’t stay there.

I realize it may not be needed in June, but do your rooms or chalets have air conditioning?
Answer from SquareLake
Alma, Canada
Hello Mary, No the chalets do not have air conditioning. We enjoy a very temperate climate here because of our position in the Fundy Valley and close to the impact created by the world's highest tides. It is unusual to get a temperature over 80 degrees. The chalets all have screened windows and fans, and even in the height of summer, it is rare to require air conditioning. I hope this answers your question. Linda
Answer from SquareLake
Alma, Canada
Hello! We are in the Village of Alma, approximately 1 kilometer from the gates of Fundy National Park. Our chalets have 2 bedrooms and a pull out couch in the living room. All linens, dishes, etc. for an extended stay are supplied. We have availability in a chalet which is suitable for your family with a check-in date of July 8 and a check-out of July 13. The rate is $ 140.00 per night + tax, so a total of 5 nights at a cost of $700 + tax. Give me a call if you want more information, Regards, Linda
Answer from SquareLake
Alma, Canada
Hello, we do have availability for the dates you are requesting. The rates are on our website (I do not think I am permitted to post them here) and will vary depending on the number of guests and the type of accommodation you choose. Thank you for your inquiry.
Answer from SquareLake
Alma, Canada
We regret we do not have an opening for tomorrow evening. Thank you for thinking of us.
