“Rooms with a view”
Beautifully decorated. Great view. Close to all shops and restaurants. Great coffee. Didn't have breakfast so can't comment. Very comfortable bed and great bedding incl blockout blinds. Reception kindly did an upgrade because hotel had space which was much appreciated. Everything was new and sparkling. Safe Parking.

“Excellent”
The boutique is easily accessible, basically a walking distance to the mall and the beach and the highway in and out of PE. Less than 30min drive to the airport as well. The food is delicious and I would recommend it to individuals to couples, friends and including families. The staff members are friendly and available at anytime of the day or night.

“Excellent stop over”
Room well appointed. Room did not have a view, which under the circumstances a one night stay and it was cold and wet, it was not an issue.

“A lovely, magnificent place to visit with great hostess and staff”
Everything was amazing, all that I thought it was and more. It looks a little simplistic when you outside until you enter the yard and it is magnificent, close to the beach and the hostess was so lovely. absolutely a recommendation for anyone who wants to go to SummerStrands
