We loved the Grille, staff and food. We loved our room. Very clean and comfortable with a gorgeous view of the ocean. Our only complaint, we were in the 3 story section facing the ocean on the 2nd floor. (219) and the person or persons occupying 319 were very heavy walkers. Stomping all day long. The rooms a small enough, I don't know where they were going, back and forth it seemed. It stopped before time for bed, but all day long. I did not complain to the front desk staff. It is very difficult to ask someone to change how they walk. We will definitely be back; but would be sure to ask for the lovely little rooms along the water with no one above. Thank you for a wonderful weekend.

I would suggest that the over rated hype related to this place is directly related to its location on a beautiful beach. It includes a nice restaurant but is otherwise highly overrated for high priced accommodations and meals that are nothing extra. The room includes a well used love seat with dirty arms, an annoying gang of house flies and a leaky toilet. The power was out for several hours but we didn’t hear from anyone or see anyone other than a few unfriendly workers around the property upon departure. No housekeeping staff were visible. Our phone flashed red continuously but we were advised that it was malfunctioning and not messages. It is easy to be mislead by website room descriptions and locations and the restaurant appeared to be fully booked online so had to call several times. It wasn’t busy at all other than a booking of several people with reservations on the second floor who drew our waiter away. Disappointing.

The property was great! It is a new resort in Summerville Centre we originally booked a beach front unit however because we had a pet with us we had to change our unit to a Pet friendly unit. The unit was great but we will definitely be back to enjoy the beach front units during the summer without our furry friend lol.

Our favourite of 8 properties we’ve stayed at in the last 2 weeks. Despite having some apprehension about some recent reviews this place was amazing. Our room was right on the beach. Simple room but had fridge and microwave nice couch and super comfy bed/sheets. No elevator but worth the workout! Beautiful deck and chairs to listen to the waves crash! Staff were friendly and efficient. I had seen a few comments about the restaurant being expensive which it was a bit more expensive then what we’ve seen here in the East but food was great, stunning views, great ambiance- makes it worthwhile in my opinion - great service as well!

This property is near the Summerville beach and has beautiful views! The resort makes homemade cookies every day. Beds are comfy. There are very little amenities for the huge price you pay to stay here. No housekeeping, a VERY small pool that fits 4 people (more like the size of a hot tub). The resort doesn’t provide you beach towels or chairs to enjoy the beach. We stayed for 4 nights and ran out of everything with no housekeeping. A very very pricy hotel for not a lot of service or amenities unfortunately. Not worth the price. I tried to share feedback at checkout, with no resolve.

Thank you so much for your feedback, it is how we get better. Please accept our apologies for not providing a welcoming space to voice your concerns and feedback at check out. We are working on adding amenities to the resort, such as our new outdoor (very large) pool. It is going in now so that it will be ready for the start of next summer. We are also planning on adding more washer toss and other fun outdoor activities. We hope you will give us the opportunity to do it right in the future.

We stayed at Quarterdeck Resort for 2 nights and wish we could have stayed for a week. Our accommodations (a 2 bedroom/2 bathroom oceanside villa) were excellent and worth every penny. The view from the villa and direct access to the waterfront was wonderful. We did 1 lunch and 2 dinners at the The Grill restaurant and enjoyed every meal. There was enough variety in the menu to please us all. My husband and daughter (11yrs) had great fun in the indoor pool as it was chilly outside during our stay and she wanted to swim in warm water. My 80yr old mother and I enjoyed long walks along the beach looking at shells and watching the surfers. We would definitely stay here again.

One of the best beaches in NS. Loved the loft accommodations but we had a large group staying above us who partied until midnight and the noise easily carried through our section of the building. That was the only disappointment.

Love the QD!
Repeat customer to the Quarterdeck, wife and I love it here, easy drive from Halifax, only 15 minutes into Liverpool, close proximity to multiple beaches with excellent dining attached, what’s not to love! We stayed in the lofts for the first time on this outing. Unit 201, Deluxe 1-bdrm Loft, to be exact. Layout was fantastic, modern/industrial feel, lots of space, could easily fit 4x adults if you don’t mind sharing 1 washroom and crashing on the pullout couch, loved the soaker tub with an ocean view. Some things we would note to be mindful of, no dishwasher and limited plates, bowls, etc, also no oven, just a stovetop, so if you plan on prepping your own meals frequently maybe haul a toaster oven and/or air fryer and some paper plates. Re: noise, our first two nights were very peaceful but then a family with young kids checked in above and all you could hear was them running and jumping around. It was Easter weekend, so we assumed they were hopped up on chocolate and left them alone, but if you’re easily annoyed by noise spring for the upper floors to be on the safe side, a better view too no doubt. Suggestions to management: 1) put some more hooks up on the walls, you can never have enough places to hang bags, towels, coats, etc. 2) maybe throw a cheap shoe rack in the main entry area, the way the layout is we were constantly kicking shoes out of the way to keep the path to the bedroom clear. See you again soon!

Loved it but disappointed/rushed.
We loved the villa. For the price you cant check in till 4 and have to be out next day at 11. Would be nice if check in was 3 and checkout at 12 to have more time there for what you pay. Was hard to enjoy the pool as kids birthday was happening and water everywhere in the rec center and noisy from 5 till 10 which was only time of our stay to enjoy it. Was told we coukd probably have check out at 12noon but when we confirmed in morning they said no so we had to hurry to leave. Whole time seemed rushed to enjoy the view, beach, pool, restaurant, villa before having to go. Need 2 or 3 nights to enjoy it all. Also we ended up parking out by the street as no space to park with villas.

This is a lovely retreat on the ocean. Garrett in the office was very helpful when we arrived and let us switch our quarters so we could be on the ocean, rather than across the road in the newer, more modern, units. The unit was very functional and cozy. The on-site restaurant was light and airy and we enjoyed a delicious meal there. We would love to be able to return for a longer stay in the future. Highly recommend.

Closeness to the beach and amenities was great. Terrific view from the studio loft. Food at the restaurant was good not great but overall service was awesome. We booked for 3 people( paid extra) but everything is set up for two and we had to call to get the linens for the pullout as they were not provided in the room. Overall though it was all good and would stay again.
