Licensing and Ratings
Tourism operators of Prince Edward Island are committed to quality, safety and cleanliness of their properties. Islanders take great pride in providing you with a place to stay that is comfortable and well-maintained.
All accommodations and camping sites listed have been inspected to ensure compliance with provincial and industry standards. If you choose to book a property that is not listed on the tourismpei.com website, we recommend that you confirm that it is licensed and inspected with an online Licensed Tourism Accommodations Search. Also, a posted copy of a licence is your assurance that cleanliness and standards of comfort have been met.
Operators have supplied the information found in this website; the accuracy of descriptions is not guaranteed. The details included in listings are meant to assist you in making an informed choice. Cancellation and deposit policies are set by individual operators. Always check these policies prior to booking.
Canada Select
The Canada Select rating program is voluntary and some operators choose not to participate; an unrated property does not imply low standards.
Some listings show a Canada Select rating based on nationally accepted standards. If you stay at a three-star property elsewhere in Canada, you will find PEI three-star properties comparable. Ratings measure a property's facilities, services, quality and amenities. Please read the descriptions to ensure the amenities you are looking for are available at the property you choose.
