About

Seascape Coastal Retreat is situated on the Cabot Trail in Ingonish, in the heart of the Cape Breton Island region. This spectacular property has a panoramic view of the ocean and of Keltic Lodge Resort, Ski Cape Smokey, and the surrounding coastline and Cape Breton Highlands mountain range. 

A wide, gently sloping pathway leads you down to the quiet beach below. Guests will delight in our enclosed garden, filled with peace and tranquility, a haven for birds and a wonderful place to spend a quiet day reading, relaxing in the spa hot tub, bird watching by day or stargazing at night while chatting over a drink in the courtyard.

Spend the day at one of the many beautiful, unspoiled beaches such as Ingonish Beach and North Bay Beach in the Cape breton Highlands National Park nearby where you can have fun in the waves, go snorkeling, or simply sit and gaze at the spectacular landscape as the water dances and sparkles in the sun. 

Ingonish is the home of the Highlands Links Golf Course, consistently ranked as one of the top golf courses in Canada. We are happy to provide you with outdoor adventure information on hiking, kayaking, beaches, mountain biking, golf, nature watching or secluded, relaxing places to take a stroll to and enjoy the serenity of the area.

Our accommodations include 10 luxury, air-conditioned cottages on the ocean (queen beds; maximum occupancy two people) and 4-piece bath with Whirlpool tub and private deck with private hot tubs (new in 2021). One cottage is wheelchair accessible.  Luxuriate in the duvets, fine linens and robes provided. Wireless Internet is available to guests. Curl up by the fireplace, lounge on the private deck in your cottage’s hot tub, or stroll through the tranquil gardens and courtyard. There is also an enclosed hot tub nestled within the garden, surrounded by grape vines and honeysuckle, as well as a quiet, private beach. 

We are a non-smoking property.
