Top Palmer Island Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Fall River North by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"all aspects were great"

Seaport Resort & Marina

8/10 Good

"The location at the end of the bridge was great, and the price was right for the area. Plenty of well-lit parking, and the place looks fine. Staff was friendly enough, but the details could use some updates. Nothing major, just... details. The only disappointment was the hot tub. After we got into the pool area (the key card lock was broken), we found that the hot tub had been filled in to be this decorative... thing. Had I known that, I would have picked the next closest place, as the wife wants what she wants, and she wants the dang indoor pool for our kid and the hot tub for herself. Gotta keep that lady happy. 😉"
