Très bien situé dans une anse au calme. Le chalet est modeste mais fonctionnel avec tout ce qu'il faut pour cuisiner. Un point négatif : la ventilation très très bruyante dans la salle de bain et qu'on ne peut arrêter sauf à rester sans lumière.

What a fantastic find! We love staying or whale watching with Vacance Essipit and they never disappoint. The only reason it wasn't 5 stars across the board is because the DVD player, wifi and laundry room dryer weren't working, but we also didn't ask anyone to come fix them because we were too busy enjoying ourselves otherwise. If you are a nature and bird lover, this place cannot be beat for the quiet, gorgeous changing of the tide, easy access to a great little hike to a whale watching/birding area as well as having all the amenities you could need (grocery store, pharmacy, gas) nearby. We have paid far more for far less and were thrilled.

Une anse magique où on peut rester des heures à regarder le Saint Laurent et apercevoir de temps à autre quelques mammifères marin . Les chalets sont confortables et plutôt bien équipés.

Pas toujours évident de trouver des endroits pour loger une famille de 6! Les chalets de l'Anse-à-Jos le permettent (bien que le divan lit pour les personnes 5 et 6 laisse à désirer au niveau confort). Pour le même prix que ça nous coûte louer deux chambres de motel miteux (ce que nous devons souvent faire pour nous loger à 6 sur la route), nous avons un chalet tout équipé super charmant offrant une plage privée dans une anse calme et un magnifique paysage. Bref, nous sommes hyper satisfaits et reviendrons sans hésiter !
