Top hotels in City-by-the Sea
Hotel Lydia
We always stay here when on the island! Such a clean and friendly place as well as great staff minus the bartender. He had a terrible attitude and was constantly going outside to chain smoke. Other than that everything was great as always!

Seashell Village Resort near the beach with kitchens
This is a family oriented property. We loved watching the children play in the pool and all of the families barbecuing. Great location to little shops and the beach.
