Ocean Plaza is our favorite place to stay by the sea. It’s nice, quiet and comfortable. Everything we need is there and everyone is helpful. We’ve stayed on all the floors in this building over the last few years. While I haven’t stayed in all units I believe the decor, beds and baths are slightly different in them all. Also I’ve only stayed in the ocean front rooms.
The pros on the ground floor is no steps but you are just steps from the sea. You can sit outside and enjoy the day it’s almost like a walk out apartment to the sea. The upper units are loft style with soaring ceilings and more space. These units have great private balconies. I love the decor in each unit I’ve stayed in. If there had to be a con. It’s something that is unavoidable due to the units being beach front. When the seaweed comes in it can smell pretty bad. But they are pretty good with cleaning it up so it doesn’t last that long.
Ocean plaza is a block from 5th Ave and still very quiet. All you hear is the sea especially if you are ocean front. It’s just a few blocks from restaurants, pharmacies and grocery stores as well. You can get anywhere buy foot but there’s also loads of taxis near by to take you where you need to go.

I took a tram to the top where I got to enjoy the most beautiful views of Paris. There are a lot people enjoying the sights and sounds. There also where some people trying to get you to sign something and collect money they were very aggressive and there were a lot of them. Other that that the chapel was also breath taking too.

We really enjoyed walking the trail. It doesn’t go in a circle so we walked to the falls and back. It rained for a whole week prior to coming to the park so the kids got lots of fun mud and puddle fun. There is Porta John if you have to go to the bathroom but I’d definitely suggest going prior to your arrival here.

Fascinate-U Children's Museum is in the heart of downtown Fayetteville. Upon arrival there’s not much parking so I’d suggest going in non peak times. The parking was also paid. $1 per hour, with an off-street max of $5/day. Parking is free on Weekends and City Holidays.
Admission: $3.00 Adults $4.00 Children. There’s a place to put your strollers and backpacks and then you can jump right into playing and learning. It’s really good for little kids that are into imagination play and I think it seems it may age out at age 10. They also have a toddler room also for the little ones. We spent about 2 hours here and the kiddos had a blast.

This was quite possibly one of the best tours we’ve taken. We did the DC Christmas Lights Tour. The tour was on a warm luxury bus and our tour guide Nick was loaded with great history, little known facts and he was hilarious. I would definitely recommend this to other families that homeschool or unschool their children. Both parent and our 7 year old had a blast!
