Home to Canada’s capital city and one of the mightiest falls (the Niagara, of course!), Ontario is a lovely city to explore on your visit to Canada. However, do not miss on a weekend away at Sauble Beach while you are at it. With 7 kilometres of pristine white sand beach, it is the second largest freshwater beach in the world.
Whether you want to swim, laze, catch the sun or indulge in water sports like Jet-Skiing, Kiteboarding or Surfing or simply build castles in the sand, this beach is the perfect combination of soft sand, lovely warmth and clear waters — not to miss the number of eating joints lining the beach side waiting to be explored! Pack a bag, and drive down to the beach town for a weekend of fun and relaxation. Some of the noted eateries in the area are:
Amici’s Coffee Bar — for all thing’s coffee and taste!
- Bruce County Nut & Fudge Co — hometown flavour and handmade with love!
- Channing Chinese Restaurant — the name says it all!
- Dairy Queen — soft serve on a summer morning hits absolutely different!
- Luscious Bakery — sweet, spice and sugary nice!
- Rustic Pizza Co — this is the place for delectable pizzas!
- Wellness Refinery — a smoothie and latte bar for a nutritious breakfast!
- Laszlo’s Bistro & Pizza — the ultimate flatbread experience on your beach getaway!
These are just a few of the lip-smacking outlets in the town. While you are out exploring Sauble Beach, there is no place else to stay than the June Motel. Set to officially open in early June this year, it’s the perfect spot for good wine and pink vibes! Just 24 rooms, a stunning pool and a retro 70’s like dining lounge — you know where the sunsets will be perfect!
For those of you that are unfamiliar with the June Motel concept — it was started by two stunning ladies — the first hotel being in Price Edward County. These two friends stumbled upon a vintage mid-century motor lodge. A renovation later was born the June Motel — a motel experience in a wine-town with good vibes and hip guests!
16 rooms, a specialisation in wines of the country and a hip-retro ambience, their curated menu of foods and the vineyard are an absolute heart-stealer. It is all about living in the moment, taking in the sunshine and simple pleasures of life — without a care in the world, but; with a glass of rose wine throughout the day! PS — They have The Residence, an in-house co-working space for guests and their guests during the day; which can double-down as a private dining venue in the evenings!
With stylish bohemian design and to-die-for sunsets, the Price Edward County property has been a winner among discerning travellers looking for an unusual yet warm experience in a wine town! You know what to expect from the beach property! Get ready for yoga mornings, turquoise waters and welcoming ambiences from the June Motel and the ladies that made it happen!
