Point of View Suites is situated on the edge of a four-acre peninsula overlooking Atlantic Ocean in Louisbourg on beautiful Cape Breton Island. Our deluxe suites are tastefully decorated with custom furnishings, birch hardwood floors and garden doors opening onto terraces and balconies with spectacular views of the ocean and the Fortress of Louisbourg. Point of View is conveniently located on Louisbourg’s historic waterfront, so you are just steps away from unique shops, restaurants and live entertainment.
Historic dinners are available at Point of View Suites, and we are within walking distance of the Louisbourg Playhouse, where you can enjoy outstanding Cape Breton music, live theatre and dance. Visit Louisbourg’s historic lighthouse and walk along the coast to Kennington Cove. Explore the Fortress of Louisbourg, which is a preserved recreated French fortification of 250 years with impressive walls and majestic gates, homes, gardens and lively taverns and 18th-century cuisine. Louisbourg also offers miles of coastline with sandy beaches, hiking trails and wildlife sanctuaries.
Our accommodations include 19 units with queen bed, ensuite bathroom, cable television, telephone, hairdryer, and microwave; 10 housekeeping suites; some include balconies and decks overlooking Fortress Louisbourg and the ocean. Guest features include ocean swimming at a private beach. Visa, MasterCard and American Express are accepted.
