Greetings Rachelle, 

Thank you for your question to Ask an Islander!

Chelton Beach and Argyle Shore, beaches not too far from the Confederation Bridge, may contain sea glass. As for motels and hotels, the closest city to the Confederation Bridge is Summerside (a small, picturesque community). Summerside contains many motels and inns, such as Quality Inn and Suites, Cairns Motel, and Microtel Inn and Suites

I hope you enjoy your stay on the Island. I am sure you will create some fond memories with you and your folks.

All the best,

Bret MacCaull
