We stayed for 3 nights and it was a great base for exploring central PEI. It was an easy walk to lots of places to eat and to the boardwalk for sunset. Ellen’s garden suite was clean, comfortable, and very cute, with chairs on the patio if we didn’t want to sit right in the garden. The ice cream shop conveniently located below was a great place for a treat in the evening! Check in / check out was very easy and having laundry available was another excellent perk!

We stayed in the executive apartment. It was much bigger than we realized. It has a private entrance from the ground floor, a living room and kitchen on the second floor of the home and a bedroom with two Queen beds, a big walk in closet and a bathroom on the third floor. We enjoyed exploring the island and coming home to the most delicious ice cream every night!

Some perks included the best ice cream doqnstairs and the ability to do a load of laundry. The owners were very nice and available if you needed anything. This stay was nothing less than perfect for our family of four.

We had no issues whatsoever. It is a lovely property, our suite was perfect with a separate bedroom, pull out couch in the living area and a kitchenette. Parking was included and on the property. We checked out early Sunday morning, and realized when we were unpacking at home that we had left a souvenir from the festival in the room. When I called, Daniel was very helpful and quickly sent me a picture to confirm what had been forgotten. He arranged to have the item shipped back to us. Fantastic service!

Holman Suites is a fantastic place to stay! The second floor apartment has a kitchen (full refrigerator, toaster, toaster oven, hot plate, kettle & microwave…no oven) The kitchen is well stocked. There is a living room, bathroom and separate spacious bedroom with a comfortable queen sized bed and wardrobe with lots of windows offering natural light. It’s 2 blocks from the ocean and is above Holmans Ice Cream parlour…the ice cream is so yummy! Free onsite parking This is my second time staying here and highly recommend it! The staff are so friendly!

The apartment was quite comfortable and spacious with a separate living room. It is situated above an ice cream (excellent by the way) parlor and parking is easy and secure. Access is easy and staff was well prepared for our arrival. Message exchange with owner prior to arrival gave all info required for easy access. Only drawback is you cannot control temperature in the apt as it is controlled downstairs by the ice cream parlor. Depending on the season of your visit it may not be an issue. In between seasons, it is a little different as you may want warmer in the bedroom but cannot adjust. I assume if it was an issue, the owners would cooperate and help you out. They want you to be comfortable.

Our stay at Holman’s Heritage Suites was truly wonderful. The house was spotless, comfortable, and filled with antique charm that brought Anne of Green Gables to mind. The kitchen had everything we needed, the location was excellent, and the ice cream shop downstairs was absolutely delicious. We also loved the beautiful garden and the local performances. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, which made our stay even more special. Visiting PEI for the first time with our children was unforgettable, and we left with such happy memories. I would highly recommend this place to friends and anyone visiting the island!

We enjoyed our stay at Holman’s (I mean, it’s above an ice cream parlour…) - we stayed in Suite 2. It was comfy and a great hub for our adventures in PEI. Full kitchen, streaming channels on the TV and a great comfy bed. The bathroom was also great - nice water pressure, fluffy towels and lots of room. We stayed a few weeks before the season opened so the island was quieter. And the ice cream - we had rocky road and tin roof. So yummy! Highly recommend staying here!

We loved staying at Holman’s Heritage Suites. Our room was the Sister’s Parlour Room. It is a large suite, with large bedroom, comfy bed and plenty of living space. Some nice antique pieces with a mix of modern makes the room lovely. All very clean. Having the Holman’s Ice Cream Parlour below us made it very easy to buy a few tasty ice creams. I loved the outside gardens.

Stayed in a 2 floor apartment with a small kitchen. We could park right outside the door. The property was close to dining options and right above the ice cream shoppe. It was clean, roomy, and quiet. We would recommend. The location was a good jumping off point for visits to Cavendish and the North Cape.

This property is truly amazing. Ken and Jenny's hospitality is truly flawless. They have thought of everything. The morning we were set to arrive I received a message that they had received a last-minute cancellation and they were upgrading us (a family of 4) to their executive suite (we originally booked the sister's parlor, I believe). It was beyond thoughtful. Their communication was so clear before, during, and after our stay. Not to mention the AMAZING ice cream downstairs. It was a child's paradise staying above an ice cream shop. Thank you so much Ken and Jenny!! We will be back and will tell everyone that is visiting PEI about where to stay for sure!!!!!

Everything was great ( room, staff, area). They took great care in communicating several times leading up to our stay on such things as the check in, room, directions, ice cream parlor, parking, etc. The only thing that we didnt have was cable to watch the hockey games at night. There was a large screen tv with roku, disney+, and netflix, so we had lots to watch, except the playoff hockey game lol. We would definitely stay there again!

The apartment was quite comfortable and spacious with a separate living room. It is situated above an ice cream (excellent by the way) parlor and parking is easy and secure. Access is easy and staff was well prepared for our arrival. Message exchange with owner prior to arrival gave all info required for easy access. Only drawback is you cannot control temperature in the apt as it is controlled downstairs by the ice cream parlor. Depending on the season of your visit it may not be an issue. In between seasons, it is a little different as you may want warmer in the bedroom but cannot adjust. I assume if it was an issue, the owners would cooperate and help you out. They want you to be comfortable.

We stayed for 3 nights and it was a great base for exploring central PEI. It was an easy walk to lots of places to eat and to the boardwalk for sunset. Ellen’s garden suite was clean, comfortable, and very cute, with chairs on the patio if we didn’t want to sit right in the garden. The ice cream shop conveniently located below was a great place for a treat in the evening! Check in / check out was very easy and having laundry available was another excellent perk!

Our stay at Holman’s Heritage Suites was truly wonderful. The house was spotless, comfortable, and filled with antique charm that brought Anne of Green Gables to mind. The kitchen had everything we needed, the location was excellent, and the ice cream shop downstairs was absolutely delicious. We also loved the beautiful garden and the local performances. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, which made our stay even more special. Visiting PEI for the first time with our children was unforgettable, and we left with such happy memories. I would highly recommend this place to friends and anyone visiting the island!

Our apartment above the famous ice cream shop was spacious, clean, well appointed. The gardens downstairs are just lovely and the perfect spot for an early morning cup of tea. The location is near downtown, the waterfront, and the walking trail. We highly recommend the apartments.

My daughter and I really enjoyed our stay at Holman’s! We had a beautiful studio. Close to everything in Summerside and walking distance to pier and restaurants. We also enjoyed our evening scoop of delicious Holmans home made ice cream right downstairs!

The rooms sit on top of the best ice cream shop in town! Our room (#2) was huge and had separate sleeping, lounging and kitchen areas. The location is perfect for exploring the downtown and waterfront areas. We were very comfortable and would stay here again.

Holman Suites is a fantastic place to stay! The second floor apartment has a kitchen (full refrigerator, toaster, toaster oven, hot plate, kettle & microwave…no oven) The kitchen is well stocked. There is a living room, bathroom and separate spacious bedroom with a comfortable queen sized bed and wardrobe with lots of windows offering natural light. It’s 2 blocks from the ocean and is above Holmans Ice Cream parlour…the ice cream is so yummy! Free onsite parking This is my second time staying here and highly recommend it! The staff are so friendly!

Stayed in a 2 floor apartment with a small kitchen. We could park right outside the door. The property was close to dining options and right above the ice cream shoppe. It was clean, roomy, and quiet. We would recommend. The location was a good jumping off point for visits to Cavendish and the North Cape.

We enjoyed our stay at Holman’s (I mean, it’s above an ice cream parlour…) - we stayed in Suite 2. It was comfy and a great hub for our adventures in PEI. Full kitchen, streaming channels on the TV and a great comfy bed. The bathroom was also great - nice water pressure, fluffy towels and lots of room. We stayed a few weeks before the season opened so the island was quieter. And the ice cream - we had rocky road and tin roof. So yummy! Highly recommend staying here!

A lovely and well cared for property with everything you need. The suites are soundproof and well stocked. We ate the most delicious ice cream every day, sat by the outdoor fire, enjoyed the gardens and loved every minute. We will definitely be returning.

We stayed in the executive apartment. It was much bigger than we realized. It has a private entrance from the ground floor, a living room and kitchen on the second floor of the home and a bedroom with two Queen beds, a big walk in closet and a bathroom on the third floor. We enjoyed exploring the island and coming home to the most delicious ice cream every night!

We stayed in the Holman executive suite. The accomations were wonderful. The full kitchen was perfect for saving on meals. The space was clean spacious and perfect for the family. Some perks included the best ice cream doqnstairs and the ability to do a load of laundry. The owners were very nice and available if you needed anything. This stay was nothing less than perfect for our family of four.

This is really a special place with attentive proprietors. Our suite (#2, the Sister’s Suite) was huge, with bedroom, living room, kitchen, and a little balcony and we especially appreciated the supplied coffee for mornings. Ending each day in the garden was an added treat, as was Holman’s delicious ice cream (their Vanilla Surprise tastes like my homemade, egg-yolk-based recipe). The on-delivery hot water system was a little wonky during the hours when the shop was opening/closing, but we loved this place and we’d definitely stay again.

Ellen’s Garden suite was adequate for our length of stay, the location was convenient for our travel plans. We found the suite to be quite noisy especially at closing time as the ice parlour was right below us. The amenities in the suite could use some improvement especially for cooking. We found the property and location very interesting given the history of Summerside. Our host. Daniel, was very friendly and helpful!

If you don't like ice cream and don't like to see happy people consuming it then don't come here. But aside from those 2 or souls, everyone else will love to stay here. Our suite was spacious and clean, the staff kind and helpful. A beautiful heritage building in the heart of Summerside, one block off the Confederation Trail.
