The Suites at Fishermen’s Village- 2 Bedroom Suites
La suite a surpassé nos attentes. Propreté impeccable. Équipée de tout ce dont on avait besoin. La vue sur la plage était charmante. La grandeur de l’unité était parfaite. Nous aurions pu y être 4 sans se sentir à l’étroit. Le personnel est très aidant et généreux. C’est un endroit paradisiaque.

Comfort Inn & Suites
Clean room. Friendly staff. Used the shuttle to get to the airport. They change the time on me at the last minute for that, but it was still good. They had the breakfast out very early. Thank you.

Room was clean. Easy check-in. Breakfast was decent not as great as I read in the reviews. Breakfast room is very small. Location is perfect. Has electric car charging stations less than 3 minutes away. Recommend this hotel.
