"Very nice property and the employee's were helpful at every turn. I'd stay there again."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Fort Smith

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay always enjoyed staying there"

Hampton Inn by Hilton Fort Smith

10/10 Excellent

"The night staff was so sweet and helpful. My room? Well it was a huge surprise. Clean. Well done. The big surprise was the bathtub with a ledge at the back that ran side to side just wide enough for my toiletries and plenty of room for hubby's. Not one one of those tiny little triangles that o ly holds one bottle of trial size shampoo. The vanity area...wow nice and lone wirh a shelf above the vanity where you can put things and not worry about them getting wet. Its the little things that go along way when you travel certainly impressive"

Pirate Seeking crew. Downtown with hot tub!

10/10 Excellent

"If you are looking for a fun and completely unique getaway in Fort Smith, this pirate-themed rental is an absolute hidden treasure. The property is a cozy, private unit situated perfectly above a garage, making it a great little private retreat.The hosts went above and beyond to deck out the entire space. Every single room features incredible attention to detail, with immersive pirate decor that makes the stay incredibly memorable without sacrificing comfort. It genuinely feels like stepping into another world. Beyond the fantastic theming, it is just a wonderful place to relax—especially with the added bonus of a hot tub, which was the perfect way to unwind.If you want a comfortable stay with a highly creative twist, I highly recommend dropping anchor here. It was a fantastic experience from start to finish!"
