45 Steps - The Culinary Beachside Inn

Went in the spring of last year. Absolutely beautiful and owners so hospitable cannot wait to go back!

Absolutely loved our weekend getaway at 45 Steps! The room was stunning and comfortable, fantastic bathroom, beautiful views, and really great service.

We ate dinner one night and it was an intimate and delicious experience! We will absolutely be back.p. S.very gay friendly! Would highly recommend to 2SLGBTQ+ travelers.

Wonderful and very comfortable place.
Home cooked delicious food and very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. A true home away from home.

My husband and I sadly only stayed one night at 45 steps but we enjoyed every minute. It is a BEAUTIFUL place with modern, comfortable accommodations. We had a large deck off our room facing the ocean and enjoyed a nice sunset after a day of rain. Barbara and Thomas serve a delicious meal in an ocean facing dining room that offers guests both privacy and community if you’re seeking it. We were there over Canadian Thanksgiving and we were treated like family.

We chose to escape to PEI for a final vacation before our baby arrives and The 45 steps Inn was the perfect place for us. The space is intimate, quiet and stunning. The food is superb and the innkeepers are lovely. The rooms are very comfortable and you truly feel like you’re staying with friends while you’re there, so you gravitate to the shared spaces! Thank you for the perfect getaway!

Très heureux d'avoir trouver ce coin de paradis. Barbara et Thomas nous y reçoivent avec grand soin dans un charme à saveur européenne. Nous y reviendrons pour la qualité de la nourriture, l'ambiance chaleureuse des hôtes, la chambre moderne et la vue directement sur la mer atlantique. C'est loin de Montréal mais ça en valait le coup:)

What a special place! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 45 Steps. Yes, it is only 45 steps to the beach. Yes, the food is amazing. And yes, the rooms are cozy, clean and relaxing spaces. We hope to return and enjoy Barbara & Thomas’ hospitality again. Thank you so much for having us.

Barbara and Thomas operate a first rate resort in a uniquely special location. Every detail has been elegantly and thoughtfully cared for. Best food we had during our visit to PEI. Both breakfast and dinner were delicious and Barbara's clever cocktails are a treat! Rooms are fabulous, ultra-clean and views incredible. We will definitely be back!

The 45 Steps Inn is the best Hotel in Atlantic Canada we experienced. Great location, fantastic building, excellent service and good food. Thanks Barbara and Thomas. Bernhard and Andrea

This is most beautiful place we stayed at in our trip to the Maritimes. The room was beautifully appointed, very modern design. It also had a great view out the sliding door out to the ocean, which is literally 45 steps down to the beach, with gorgeous sunsets and sunrises.
The dining area also had beautiful views out to the ocean. The breakfast included lots of wonderful home-baked goods, cereals, fruit and some meats, as well as juice, tea and coffee.
Our hosts, Barbara and Thomas, were very friendly, and were helpful with suggestions of what to do in the area. We also opted for a dinner at the Inn, with Chef Barbara making us a delicious 3-course meal, with a glass of wine to go with it.
Altogether we had a very enjoyable stay at 45 Steps Inn, and look forward to visiting again!

We just had a magical stay at 45 Steps on PEI with Barbara and Thomas. If you are looking for a haven from the madness of the world, this is it. They wrap you in a comforting blanket of generous hospitality and fine cuisine - Barbara is Lausanne-trained - in a design environment that is unparalleled. I recommend it very highly. It is a remarkable experience.

The most amazing place with the most amazing service! The location is a 10 out of 10.right on a private red sand beach for as far as the eye can see. The owners Barbara and Thomas have the highest of standards and are the kindest people. The food was OUTSTANDING! You can not go wrong visiting this wonderful place. We will be back!

I cannot overstate the amazing experience we had while at the Inn. Barbara and Thomas have created a warm, beautiful space that makes you feel as if you’re on another planet. Waking up and going to sleep with such views was unforgettable, and something we cannot wait to partake in many times over in the future.

Aside from the impeccable accommodations, the food (both included breakfast, and the optional 3-course dinners) was the best either of us have had, across many, many countries.

Breakfast brought the most delicious pastries and jams/preserves that we looked forward to each morning, and was the perfect start to the day. We were lucky enough to be treated to three very different dinners throughout, where the culinary skills of our hosts were truly showcased. Although we enjoyed classics such as salmon, scallops, and caprese salad, the flavour combinations and cooking techniques were so incredibly perfect; we didn’t want our meals to end. If you do not partake in these dinners, you are truly missing out. To make things extra special, Barbara coordinated to have our “fur babies” watched during dinner time, so we could have a relaxing meal alone (thank you again!)

Semi-related, there is a town about ten minutes away, St. Peter’s, with a trove of cute shops. We had a chance to visit Fritz’s chocolates and the Black & White Cafe, and would absolutely recommend making a visit to both places if in the area.

Kudos to the owners for their talent in hospitality (all facets) ; you have created an absolute gem. We appreciate all of your hard work, which allowed us to have a truly memorable few days. We cannot wait to return in the future!

This Inn is so lovely in every way imaginable! The most breathtaking views of the coast, modern clean rooms, fantastic hosts and most importantly one of the best culinary experiences; the prefix menu set by Barbara and Thomas are absolutely unique and incredibly delicious with locally sourced and fresh ingredients! This place is a gem and a must go to when visiting PEI, I can say with conviction that if you do not go here while visiting you have 100% missed out on an absolutely unique and elegant experience! We will be back soon.
Thank you Barbara and Thomas for such an unforgettable and amazing time!

We were able to enjoy 2 nights in the beautiful hotel. Friendly hosts and a breathtaking view with a fine sandy beach. Definitely a top address on PEI!
