    ocean view
    whale watching
    limited breakfast options

    Staying at this charming place was wonderful! The kids and grandkids especially loved the spacious family suite with a lovely terrace where we enjoyed stunning ocean views. We also had a great time whale watching right from our room, making it a memorable family trip!

    In my wife’s opinion, we wished for more kid-friendly breakfast options.

    We had an amazing time at La Fontaine! The location is perfect for whale watching right from our room, and the breakfast spread was delightful. A minor bummer was that our whale boat trip got canceled due to weather, but the staff were super helpful finding alternatives.

    confusion experience

    The key details you’re looking for

    The central location made it effortless to explore local attractions, and the warm hospitality from the staff created a welcoming atmosphere. The spacious Honeymoon Suite offered breathtaking ocean views that enhanced our stay.

    While the breakfast was decent, I found the options a bit limited for my taste. I experienced some minor confusion regarding room availability upon arrival.

    sea view
    mini bar

    The sea view from our balcony was breathtaking, and we spotted whales right from our room. Plus, the mini bar was a nice touch!

    Parking can be tricky at times.

    inconvenient situation

    Had a great time with friends! Natasha was super helpful, arranging our outings and recommending great places to eat. Breakfast was delicious, and the comfy atmosphere made it a top-notch stay!

    Unfortunately, I wasn't feeling well during our trip, but the manager helped by arranging a doctor's appointment which was a bit inconvenient.
