Echoes of the Ocean exceeded our expectations on every level. Linda and Wayne were perfect hosts and the B and B was spotless, modern, well equipped and comfortable. A great advantage of this B and B is all the property is available to the guests so you can walk across to the dock which is theirs and have your morning coffee or a drink underneath the stars or just sit in a chair or at the picnic table and watch the world go by. Linda made our reservations for the dinner theatre, made suggestions about where to eat and what to do and had a map with the attractions and locations available on check in. When we arrived, we just called and Linda arrived right away. In the evening, she gets everything set up for breakfast the next morning and her homemade jams are incredible. The highlight of our trip was going out in the boat with Wayne for most of one afternoon - our private tour guide. He is well experienced on the water and found us whales and icebergs and was a wealth of information. He even got us some iceberg ice so we could have a drink after our wonderful afternoon at sea and brought out their good crystal to make our "bucket list drink" extra special. We will return and hope to bring our family and stay again and enjoy the hospitality of Linda and Wayne and the comforts of Echoes of the Ocean!

Nice, quiet room. Breakfast was set up the night before so you can eat at your convenience. Fresh fruit, home baked bread and muffins, juice, cereal, milk available .Full kitchen if you wanted to cook. Not your usual B & B setup, but ok. Nice living room area. Central location in small community of Twillingate.

Long weekend in Newfoundland; July 12-14. Everything in town booked out. Called the Visitor Centre in Twillingate for recommendations on finding available accommodations in town. (Great service from the Visitor's Centre by the way). They called back with 2 properties that had remaining availability; Echoes on The Ocean was first on the list. We called, asked a ton of questions of the owner; we were told RIGHT ON THE BEACH and a DELUXE 2-BEDROOM SELF CONTAINED CABIN. Sounded great and would fit our needs for 2 nights.

When we arrived it was neither. POOR view of harbour; run-down old warehouse blocking view; not on the beach; across the street and 100 metres from water. Accommodations building was run down and not very inviting AND the scruffy looking guest with the dirty shirt, mullet and dog staying on site didn't add to our excitement. We tried to check in on 3 separate occasions during the day; owner was out in a boat. Disappointed with what we saw once on site, we did not stay. BEWARE if you are looking for that perfect house on the beach...check thoroughly prior to settling on this gem.
