I couldn’t say enough praise about 45 Steps Inn! Thomas and Barbara are amazing hosts, and truly have a piece of paradise. From the moment we pulled up to the property we felt relaxed, in awe and welcome. The room was immaculate, thoughtfully decorated, and the VIEWS are to die for.

Barbara’s cooking was impeccable. I highly recommend you dine at least once at the Inn to enjoy what she imagines up. The breakfast was delicious and all house made.

They are in a beautiful location where you can explore the east part of the island and enjoy what the north shore has to offer.

We cannot wait to return!!

Bonus Note - their pugs are the sweetest little souls. Highly recommend stopping to give them a pet!

Les hôtes Barbara et Thomas ont été très accueillants et présents tout au long de notre séjour. Le site est enchanteur et la nourriture est exquise. Thomas a judicieusement fait un accord mets / vin à notre grand bonheur et satisfaction. La chambre est spacieuse, propre et décorée sobrement mais avec goût.

Pour terminer, une mention d’honneur pour Barbara qui s’est exprimé en français avec nous alors qu’elle est d’origine Suisse. Cet endroit est définitivement un coup de cœur!

Very kind and welcoming staff who are always open to conversation. The food is very, very fresh, and well made by their chef Barbara. I went alone as a 24 year old woman and felt very safe, so I'd highly recommend! However make sure to rent a car or prepare to pay a lot of money for the taxi, as the property is far out and doesn't have access to Uber :)

We stayed at 45 Steps Inn for 6 nights for our honeymoon, and it was truly the sweetest time. From the moment we arrived, we felt so at home—thanks to the kind and thoughtful hospitality of Barbra, Thomas, the rest of the team, and of course, the sweet pups!

The view was stunning, the beach was peaceful and beautiful, and breakfast was such a treat each morning—fresh and delicious every time. One of our absolute favorite moments was enjoying one of Barbra’s three-course dinners. Every bite was amazing and made with such love and care!

We are already dreaming of coming back. Thank you for such a memorable and cozy stay—we loved it SOO so much! 💛

What fantastic experience. The Inn is a destination in itself. Be sure to check out their website to see pictures of this phenomenal property. It's similar to a Bed & Breakfast, but much better. A huge, very contemporary, but warm ocean-front home - with separate hotel rooms. You can stay in your very new & clean room - and then avail yourself to the amenities of the main house Inn. There is a fireplace, library, and living room all over-looking the ocean. However, what brings this facility to life are the host & hostess / owners of the Inn. Barbara & Thomas - both European - are dedicated to making your stay as comfortable as possible. Breakfast is included with your stay. And, if you like, Barbara will prepare dinner for you - at the time you wish. She is a professionally trained chef and her dinners are superb. They are great hosts - we were hugging and almost crying when we left - like leaving family or good friends. Highly recommend this Inn.

Stunning Property on the coast in a rural setting! The owners were super pleasant despite getting ready for Hurricane Fiona. They made us feel welcome. Our room was beautiful with ocean views through the floor to ceiling windows. All the amenities of a big hotel in our room like a mini fridge and coffee/tea bar. The owner also walked us over and showed us everything when we checked in. Beautiful furnishings and linens very comfy place to stay. Breakfast was great - wish we would have booked supper the night before. Wish we would have more time to stay and enjoy and check out the area but the time we did spend was fantastic!

If you are staying in Prince Edward Island, you must stay at this beautiful inn. Modern accommodations, large rooms, comfortable beds, and listening to the waves hit the shores at night, you will not find a better place to stay on the island. Breakfast is served every morning and dinner available at night by the gracious hosts. I wish we could visit this amazing every weekend. A short walk to the beach is just feet away out your back door. Every family member or friend that visits PEI will be recommended to stay at the 45 Steps. We enjoyed getting to know our hosts during out stay.

This was probably one of the best properties we've ever stayed at in all our travels. The property is gorgeous and Barbara and Thomas are such gracious hosts. The oceanview rooms are furnished with such a calm, spa-like flair that you feel relaxed as soon as you enter. The bed was super comfy and the bathroom colours and finishes including rain shower were wonderful and toiletries eco-friendly, which we appreciated. We enjoyed the lovely breakfasts each day with delicious homemade jams, and the 3-course dinners made by Barbara were absolutely superb! We also thought the choice of east coast wines on the menu was a lovely touch too. This place and its beach and views will definitely knock your socks off!

I booked, based upon the photos and the availability. Our room was actually a grand suite with spectacular views of the ocean, 2 balconies, views of both sunrise & sunset, grand shower, king-size bed. Hosts Barbara & Thomas are extremely welcoming and social. Breakfast was good European style. Home cooked dinners are also offered at a price and we dined there 2 of 3 nights as nearest restaurants are 20 minutes away.
We loved this Inn and certainly plan to return. This is great value.

The place to relax and unwind

The location and inn are absolutely breathtaking. It starts with the wow factor as you pull into the driveway and continues through to the warm, heartfelt welcome from the owners Barbara and Thomas. The rooms are beautifully furnished with custom Euro-style pieces. The common areas are incredible (I wish I had these at home) with the spectacular views of the ocean and beach. The 45 steps take you down to a private red sand beach that is as good as any you would drive to in PEI.
The excellent meals are lovingly prepared by Barbara and the table is meticulously attended by Thomas.
This is definitely the place to go to unwind and reset your cares.
I would rate this place an 11!

The 45 Steps Inn is the ideal location for a restful oceanside getaway. The beautiful Inn is steps away from the pristine red cliff coastline, and well away from any traffic noise. Sunrise and sunset are spectacular. The clean rooms are very stylish and modern with many conveniences. The hosts are very friendly and have a lot of knowledge about the area. Each morning they prepare a delicious breakfast served in the bright ocean view dining room.
