Beds were comfortable in the domes, very peaceful and relaxing 😎 the hot tub was a bonus, and the view of the water was lovely, we had access to the bathroom and shower in the inn, and Jeff and crew were helpful with towels and anything else we inquired about :) highly recommend and we will be back!

I was nervous booking this after reading some poor reviews, but our experience couldn’t have been more opposite! We absolutely loved the glamping experience! The site was still under construction during our visit (only 3 domes open), but the ones that are finished are just the cutest! It looks like a large building for washrooms is being built next to the domes as well - we had to use the washrooms in the main motel this time, but that wasn’t an issue! The property manager was super helpful and very kind. We had an issue with our key fob, called him & he came down right away to help us out. Super close to gas / Timmie’s for morning breakfast & fill-up before we hit the Cabot trail. Our dome had 2 double beds, a tv, microwave, fridge, ac/heater, and WHAT A VIEW! Perfect place to rest our heads! We didn’t have a chance to check out the hot tub, but we will next time! We would definitely stay again! 10/10 😊

We have a great night and this is our first glamping experience. Washroom and shower was not totally ready for the public but I understand that this place is still under construction. Wifi not able to reach to our Dome. View of this place is amazing. Looking forward to come back with fully equipped and all the construction is done.

The dome was fantastic, it even had a television, which was great for the evening and when it rained. It is a work in progress so be patient it is all about the dome. It had huge views. Jeff was outstanding. The showers broke down but they let us use a hotel room. The hot tub should be deleted. I recommend them, once they are completed the price will certainly rise.

Domes are a newly added addition to the Baddeck Hotel, and private washrooms are being worked on and are under construction. The current bathrooms are in a private room in the hotel and are clean. Highway noise from the NS HWY 105 was loud. The dome was great, just needs a privacy shade for the glass entry door. Many heaters are included to keep you warm during the winter, and a heat pump is available for A/C in the summer. Overall, I had a good stay. The experience is bound to get better when the rest of the domes are built and amenities are finished construction.

Totally love the idea of this cute getaway but it wasn’t quite ready for us to stay and the pictures and descriptions are misleading. There is a highway between the domes and the waterfront and each dome has a designated bathroom shared by all the domes but not within the domes themselves. The bathrooms are a 3-4 minute walk up to the hill. The inside of the dome was very neat and clean but the wifi didn’t work. There is no water available in the dome so if you’re wanting to use the coffee maker, you need to bring your own water. Still enjoyed our experience but wished we would’ve known what we were getting for the price.

I was desperate to love this place. How cool to be able to stay in something like that? First, there was an issue with my reservation. So the owner wasn't really prepared for us. It looks like they are in full construction mode so the area wasn't as neat as could be. His workers had music playing next to our dome, but he addressed it when we texted. There should be a curtain for the door. We make a makeshift one. The tv was missing the remote. The owner addressed it quickly. Unfortunately the wifi didn't work to the dome, so no tv. There wasn't any water for the coffeemaker. And there was a surprise empty Mickie behind the microwave. Great to have these things but missing the mark about paper towel, napkins, plates, utensils. Maybe hand sanitizer since no sink or water. My problem was with the bathroom facilities. You have to go up to the main building to use the washroom. Ok, but if you really have to go, there wasn't anything else. It was also rainy so it was not convenient at all. The owner was great and very friendly, unfortunately not very prepared. Would we stay there again? No. Was it a cool experience? Yes. Would I recommend it? No and I feel sad about that.

DO NOT BOOK HERE! My family had booked the the Baddeck Domes and were looking forward to a unique experience. We arrived at about 6pm after a long day of driving just to find out that they had overbooked their motel so they gave away our dome to someone who booked a different room. I was frustrated with this however i understand things happen so i said lets just process my refund and we will find another place to stay. The lady running the motel informed my that she could not do that without speaking with her manager. So she called her manager and they were not interested in giving me a refund and just kept asking her questions on why our room was given away. To me it was irrelevant as it was already done and they could sort that out later and i just wanted my money back. Finally her manager said they cant issue us our refund since we booked through Expedia (unsure if thats true) so i called expedia while i was still there so they could confirm that i did not have a room and they refused to answer the phone call from expedia to confirm this! Expedia tried to speak with them for over a week and they ignored them the entire time! Finally expedia did give me my money back since Baddeck Domes did not answer their calls. I am very happy i booked this through expedia to help me with this refund as i truly believe Baddeck domes was hoping to keep my payment for a night we didnt even get! We ended up at Cabot Trail Motel and they were very friendly and great food!

The dome is spacious, clean, and has adequate amenities for an overnight stay. Great location as it situated along the road and next to Tim Hortons and gas station. Staff is kind and helpful esp when the dome smelled plastic fumes maybe because of the sun’s heat, he quickly helped open the dome exhaust windows to let the air flow. The cons is that washroom is outside and shared. About two domes are functional and already open to the public, few more domes are being built. Hope they’d consider the unobstructed views from the dome otherwise it will defeat the purpose of staying in a dome not a hostel. The tub is next to the washrooms so not really inviting. You can park beside your dome but pavement still uneven, maybe they will improve it as well. Overall, it’s a value for money, a good spot to have break at Baddeck before or after a long drive between Halifax and Cabot trail. Recommended.
