We visit the area usually once a year and only stay here! We have been staying here for about 7 years. It’s directly across HWY 1 about a neighborhood block distance walk to an accessible beach. The staff has always been helpful and accommodating. The property is clean and calm. We love the indoor hot tub/pool set up. A large grass courtyard with seating available. Wouldn’t recommend anywhere else! If you like pizza style restaurants you have to try Luigi’s pizza 8 minutes up the road from the motel, the property manager recommended it and it was fantastic.

The room was very clean and seemed to be recently updated. It had a refrigerator with a small freezer and a microwave. Also the room was the right temperature when we arrived not freezing like many chain hotels. We received a call from the office staff since we were arriving late in the evening. They provided instructions for self check-in which was easy. Will stay again!

Only issue we had no tissues in the bathroom at check in. Other than that check in girl was amazingly sweet, the room was clean, a little smelly, but clean. We had enough hand soap, lotion, body wash. My only complaint the conditioning shampoo is pretty harsh on my hair. But thats not the staffs fault. I really should carry my own.. there is a pool and hot tub, and ice machine. But i dkdnt use the hot tub or pool this time around.
