SeaWind Landing Country Inn ReviewWhat to do when your boatbuilding business tanks because the fish no longer bite? How about opening an inn? That's what a local couple did, and this lovely 8-hectare (20-acre) oceanfront compound was the happy result. (They sold the property in 2008, but the original feel remains intact.) Some of the guest rooms are located in the handsome, 130-year-old home, which has been tastefully modernized and updated. The rest are in a more recent outbuilding, whose rooms feature a whitewashed brightness, terrific peninsula and ocean views, and double Jacuzzis. (Pay less than C$100 for a room with a Jacuzzi? Here, yes.) The innkeepers are very knowledgeable about local art -- much of the work on display in the inn was created locally -- and they have compiled a literate, helpful guide to the region for guests. The property also has three private sand beaches, and coastal boat tours and picnic lunches can be arranged for an extra charge. The inn also serves dinner as part of some of its packages, featuring local products and wines. Facilities: Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
