We were definitely at the end of the season as everything seemed to be shutting behind us but Points of View Suites made us feel as though the season was just beginning. They could not have been more helpful especially with my vegetarian friend when the chef cooked something special for her on both nights. The room was incredible with... More

We stayed here on our Eastern trip and were satisfied with it. The room seemed to have been recently improved as things smelled new. We stayed right on the ocean. Sadly, the weather was bad that day with hurricane winds and rain so the great view was out a window. You can see the fort from the room. The checkin... More

We stayed here in October as a last minute stop while visiting the Fort of Louisbourg. Julie (manager?) was a fountain of limitless knowledge and patience with us. She even allowed us to stay in an upgraded suite for a reg room rate and it was breathtaking-like a honeymoon suite for an absolute bargain! We will definetely be back-next time... More

Fantastic, majestic, white estate house hard by the sea with stately suites and balconies overlooking the wave-filled sound. The Kennedy's have pulled out all stops in designing and furnishing the suites: spacious with kitchen amenities, full fridge, microwave; large modern bathrooms; queen sized beds with regal pillows all at very reasonable pricing. Truly the suites say "Welcome"! In fact, the... More

Point of View Suites really does have a great view, located right on the edge of the water. We had the largest hotel room we've had in a while, and it was an interesting room, hardly a right angle in the place. The dining room was the only place open for breakfast in the town, and the food was adequate... More

We were at the Point of View for one night and found it perfectly serviceable. There was some kind of banquet in the parking lot with what was supposed to be decent food and terrifying musical accompaniment from the 17th century and we avoided it like the plague. And the view of the ocean from the window was nice, although... More

Their current website gives one the impression that you'll be checking into five-star accommodations at Point of View Suites, but Unit 1 where we spent one night was unremarkable. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom clean, the couch a good place on which to pile stuff, and, although we didn't use it, the kitchenette area appeared serviceable. All in all,... More
