We had such a great stay! The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful from the moment we arrived. The location is unbeatable—right next to the water with beautiful views all around. Our room was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. You can really tell they take pride in keeping the place clean and well-maintained. Definitely one of the best spots we’ve stayed at—highly recommend!

I asked at the desk if I could get any discounts upon check in and was told because I used Expedia I could not. 3 hours after I checked in, I got a call and had to leave due to a family emergency. Again, I was told there was nothing they could do to offer any kind of refund because my reservation was made through Expedia. He said if I booked through the hotel he could help. Needless to say, I will never book through Expedia again! The hotel was ok. Not a 5-star place. Could definitely use some upgrades.

This is an older motet that offers an affordable, clean option right on the beach. Front desk staff was warm and welcoming, and the room was very clean. Check in was simple, and we loved being able to walk out our door and within steps, be on the beach. There's a park next door, which hosted a BBQ battle one day, and a croquette tournament the next, and we could play frisbee and throw a football there, as well. The boardwalk starts there, and there are convenient dining options close by.
