Places to stay in Portland

[*vi*]

It's close to town, but not in walking distance. However the walk to the corner to catch a route taxi is about 2 minutes. Dolphin Bay is a very nice area.

Buckeye,

Sorry I meant Tim Bamboo.....I guess I have Jamaica Tamboo's lobster pizza on my mind.

Seastar is lively not sure Match would compare but in all other areas I believe as Vi that Match would be a good fit. And priced well at around $65 or so a night. May even offer you a discount...ask.

As far as the villas at Fern Hill...I would have to be in a pinch to stay there again. I had to ask for things over and over and never got them or a return call. We stayed there three nights and the place wasn't cleaned once...that wasn't part of the arrangement. Because it's not used much it really felt unclean and abandoned. Serious ant problem and minor bug problem, the road up to the villa (since they are located at the top of the property) is rough but manageable. That view is out of this world and loads of privacy. The villa has a living and kitchen area and is very spacious. There are three villas up there and they share one pool and did I mention the VIEW! If they would only clean the place and do some renovating it would be a great spot. The price is fair for what you get and under your $150 budget. Oh, and there is AC in the bedroom and if you open the doors leading to the pool/porch there is nice breeze, as I said I was there in August and I usually need AC 24/7 but found it very comfortable in the common area. I have photos if I can figure out how to post I will.....oh Vi can you give me a tutorial please.

Oh forgot to mention Match has reviews listed on Tripadvisor.com
