Tigh-na-mara Spa Resort

My wife and I went to the Tigh-na-mara Spa Resort with our Airmiles (1800 =airmiles.ca) which allowed us to stay at an oceanside suite = (kitchen, fireplace,tv, room) The room was fairly rustic with a not so clean look. Shower/Tub was not up to date with the times. It was a beautiful view from the room (see picture). It also included a Spa visit to their Grotto Spa…very spectacular..but pricey normally. We also received a brunch ticket. I enjoyed the buffet style brunch but my wife was not pleased with her breakfast or dinner the night before.
The beach outside the resort was amazing. It is a east facing huge beach that you can walk for miles. The water was very warm (August visit) and there were clams and seashells everywhere. Great for beach combing. The normal cost for an oceanside room is ~$230/night. I would recommend staying in one of the spa rooms (with a private jacuzzi tub). They are not located with a beach view, but they are located to the amazing grotto spa and the walk to the beach is only ~3 minutes. Get the brunch buffet, but avoid the rest of the menu…unless you want a few drinks. Pick us some food and drink elsewhere and have dinner and drinks on the beach (fires are permitted in certain areas!) Very romantic
