We loved this property because it's was private and very peaceful but yet it was close to everything we wanted to do. The owners were very pleasant and helpful, and let us check in a little earlier, as our cottage was ready, that's was awesome after a long drive. Pool and huge trampoline were a big hit with my daughter and her friend. My husband and I enjoyed sitting on covered deck, rain or shine! Would definitely stay again! Very accommodating stay!! Thanks Swept Away Cottages!

I’m unsure how this property has received such high ratings. The cottages are extremely run down. Our child’s bed continued to fall off the makeshift frame - to the point she had to sleep in her sibling’s bed. There were no regular staples such as coffee, olive oil, dishwasher pods, and limited/old toiletries. The ac unit was likely from 1980 and very dirty. The sheets and blankets had seen there day and were stained in spots. The Expedia says check in is 3 and check out is 10:30, but it is actually 4 and 10am. Which impacted our planning. Fortunately they let us check in early- but called at 10:15am on the day we were leaving to let us know check out was actually 10am. For the price and the minimum 3 night stay - would never choose this place again.

Stayed here for 3 nights in September. We had a two bedroom cottage. It was nice as it was very private. Looked out into a grove of trees and a corn field. . The cottage itself is in need a an update. Furnishings are functional but old. . It is a blast from the past for sure. The cottage was very clean. No issues there.

Swept Away with nonsense.

Property manager made us move between two units of a two day stay, she said it was Expedia’s fault. We booked months ago for two nights, appreciate the call at 10:10AM to move out to the other unit. Management said it would be better to contact them directly to avoid being shuffled around. Expedia or Swept Away conundrum, not impressed. Lot’s of lovely children running around, they had an awesome time, pool too. Romantic getaway, don’t go here.
Detailed instructions.

A great choice for a vacation in PEI

Fantastic location, just a short drive from Cavendish Beach. The services are top-notch, with fresh towels provided daily—a rarity these days. The staff are incredibly friendly and promptly attend to our needs.

Our cottage was not at all like the one in the picture. It was basically a very small square space with no ocean view. The unit should have a heat pump installed as the air conditioning unit is not adequate to cool the area.

Great property, would definitively recommend to others going to the island. Pool was awesome, very spacious between cabins. Great atmosphere. Only real issue was upon arrival of our two night stay we were informed we would need to switch cabins for the second night which was a huge inconvenience to us, especially considering the price.

Unlike many of the cottages in Cavendish, Swept Away is tucked away and very private. The owner was more than accommodating. Location was perfect. Walking distance to the Cavendish boardwalk, minutes from the beach. We will be back next summer!

Central location with a great distance between cottages. Very clean and well maintained inside and out. Loved that we got firewood delivered each dY. Wifi did not work our entire stay and our fridge was not great at keeping things cold. The freezer on top worked perfectly.

When booking online we thought we booked one specific cabin, but it was another we got. Still a 6 bedroom cabin we needed and if was great, if not better than the original one we thought we had!! The property and cabin were immaculate. We were pleased with size of cabin bases in the cost, the pool and hot tub were great. We stayed in cabin 17 and having the laundry in the cabin was very helpful (2 families traveling with small kids!). We will definitely be staying there again.
