This is a wonderful hotel, it feels like a well renovated older property. I was amazed and delighted they had a bath tub!! Plush, thick robes, bedside lights that dimmed, an electric fireplace (gave great heat and a good approximation of fire glow). We had a room with a balcony overlooking the beach, the sunrise was spectacular. Cute little table and chairs on the balcony to have coffee, which came from an actual coffee pot not the horrid Keurig. I would absolutely stay here again!

Nice hotel that is right beside the water. We had one of the 10 rooms located in other building that had a very spacious room with a great view. Little confusing to get to room at first because the rooms are mixed in with some offices etc but afterwards it was easy.
