The huge house is exceptional architecturally and recalls a past era of fine country living. The dining facilities and food are first rate;. the property is well kept and features its own lake ; broad verandahs overlook garden and croquet areas. The many rooms are comfortable and well decorated while varying greatly in size and view.. I will visit again and stay longer.

We had a great stay at the Dalvay. The smell of the wood burning fireplaces greets you when you walk into the hotel. If you are looking to experience the charm of yesteryear this is the place for you.

There were so many cozy areas situated around the woodburning fireplaces. The staff was excepionally friendly and helpful. This grand hotel is very old and it felt like stepping back in time to stay there. It was in a great location from which to explore PEI.

A return visit to Dalvay after many years proved you can’t go home again. Expecting a 4-5 star experience we were greeted with a third floor cold and drafty room (albeit with a view of the lake) and with a bed that the biggest bear must have slept in, and that left me clinging to the side lest I fall into the middle. My husband was greeted with a cold shower wake up after his golf round which he hasn’t needed in a while. Things were remedied to some extent by the intrepid Nettie who should be canonized and by Spencer who was efficient and solicitous. Housecoats would be a welcome addition as well as steps into the claw foot tub showers ( not for the faint of heart!!) The fires are warm the prices are high and the beach is beautiful
