Summer 2023
Vacation is a time when you want to leave all your worries behind and enjoy yourself. Unfortunately, finding a place to stay that offers a reasonable price with clean, modern facilities, can be a worry that follows you on your vacation. When you stay at Clark's Sunny Isle Motel, you can finally relax. Not only have you found a spot that meets these needs, you have also found a spot that offers much more. When you're not touring around enjoying the sights and activities of P.E.I., you can relax and stroll the lush motel grounds. The plants, shrubs and trees that fill out the 2 acres of property create an atmosphere that truly has to be seen to be appreciated.Click the following link to find out more about us.
Our Grounds
Here are some additional
pictures of the motel and grounds.
We offer all the features
of the larger hotels at a fraction of the cost. All units feature
cross-ventilation, individual thermostatically-controlled heat, air
conditioning, clock radios, mini-fridges, hair dryers, wireless internet,
phones with free local calls and new 40-5
0" High Definition TVs

can get familiar with your small host city!
New for 2021...In room single cup
coffee makers. Daily maid service is included for those staying more than one night.
We also have a safe and convenient storage area for bicycles
so people can leave
them safely behind when they are not needed.
These
photos show some new renovations done for 2018 with new triple sheeting beds
with duvets. We have tried this in a couple of rooms to see how they work
out.
Here are some room
pictures.
Golf and
shopping can be found nearby and the Confederation walking
Trail is only very close and easy to access. The ever popular Cavendish
Beach area is a short 25-30 minutes drive. The Confederation
Bridge is 20 minutes away and Charlottetown is 45 minutes away. The North Cape
Coastal drive starts in Summerside and is a great idea for a
daytrip to see this lovely part of PEI (Try to take in the Potato museum in
Oleary). The whole drive can be completed in one leisurely day trip from our
motel.
The public sidewalk
in front of the motel can take you to restaurants and the College of piping
all less than 1km away.
For those
who travel with a laptop, all rooms have internet access. You can connect via
our wireless connection (compatible with wireless G and N) and some
rooms also have a direct wired connection.
We also have a computer in our lounge
which has high speed access. This is extremely popular with our guests who
can send or receive email or just surf the net, all at no additional charge
. This area also serves as a meeting area where people
have their complimentary morning coffee or tea and chat with
other guests.
I like to call it our mini Internet Cafe (pictured below).

Recognition of Excellence Award.
This selection has come from
HotelsCombined’s extensive surveys using data from millions of guest reviews for
a wide range of accommodation within Canada.
Clark's
Sunny Isle Motel has consistently produced a high satisfaction rating among
guests and travel industry experts.
Clark's
Sunny Isle Motel now joins an elite group of hotels around the world that have

Choosing a room
Selecting
what type of room you want can be a difficult decision. We are proud of
all our rooms but certain features described below may influence your
choice.
We basically
have 3 types of rooms: A room with 1 queen
bed; A room with 2 queen beds in the front
of the motel; A room with 2 queen beds in the
back of the motel.
All rooms have been fully renovated
and they all have a mini-fridge, microwave and free wifi(as described
above). The rooms with 2 queen beds have one firm mattress and one softer
mattress(all high end pocket coil). The rooms with 1 queen bed have a medium
firmness mattress (my personal favorite...the Beautirest Black).
The rooms with 2 queens at the front of the
motel are closer to traffic but some people prefer them because they have
solid surface flooring and a private south facing deck with 4
chairs.
The rooms with 2 queen beds
at the back are popular with some people since they are farther from
the road and face the gardens. These rooms have no privated
deck and carpet floors.(Room #22 in back does have a smaller private deck
with 2 chairs).
The rooms with 1 queen bed are around back (except #7) but
aren't as far back as the rooms with 2 queens. They have a shower only and
solid surface floors.
PLEASE
NOTE:
We do not accept pets. We do make occasional exceptions for
non-shedding small dogs in 1 specific room. That would need to be arranged
ahead of time.
2023 Rates
We have continued the tradition of offering great rooms at great rates. Our rates are the best in Summerside. Unlike other accommodations that have focused on adding to the room rates....we have been focused on adding to the rooms.
