Review of Sea Parrot Ocean View Manor 5*

The accommodations were good; nice cottages, nice hot tubs, nice view of the ocean, etc. The owners on the other hand were absolutely horrible. Our week stay started off with one of the owners losing her mind because we were cooking mussels… which we would have been able to get over… Day two of our stay was eventful. We started the day without any running water. When we approached the owners about the issue, we were immediately cursed out and blamed. We hadn't even been there for 24 hours yet at this point and had used little to no water at all. We then decided to go to the Ingonish beach for the day. While we were gone, the owners went through our cottages without our permission. They thought we had all left. Luckily, a few of us stayed behind and caught them in the act. They then tried to cover up what they were doing and proceeded to curse us out again for telling them they cannot go through our things. We were without water the entire week and when we asked them what the plan was for returning water to the cottages or acquiring bottled water, they simply told us they were not going to do anything about it. Almost every day there was an incident with the owners… either they'd be mad we didn't shower before going in the hot tub (without running water…? ) or claiming we had too many people in our cottages, which we did not, or blaming whatever it was on their mind at the time on us. It was extremely unpleasant and I hope they smarten up as owners. It was with no surprise they weren't Canadians, and I hope this review helps persuade people looking for a vacation in Cape Breton to stay at one of the other much more friendly family owned accomadations.
