What do you most want people to know about your business?
That we are more than a hotel, We are a community, We are slowing growing every day, from our pub Nax’id to having a coffee shop now and a patio. Learning our culture and working on learning the language again before it is lost.
In your own words, please share “Travel matters because … ”
Without travel, there would be no business left, we need travellers to support our business and support our economy. We love sharing our community with travellers that have never been to the island, sharing where we all came from, our local businesses, our parks our ocean.

The Cove has the best selection of casual clothing always awesome sales and new items. The Clothes Inn, has everything you can think of from baby to adult clothes. My favourite thing to do is shop locally.
