Perfect Stay in Room 20 – Exceeded Expectations!

Absolutely loved our stay! Our second-level King room was perfect for a one-night getaway. The view, the bed, and the bathroom all exceeded our expectations. We’ll definitely be booking Room 20 again. Thank you, Ocean Front Motel!

No way to say except it was underwhelming. Roomy room. The spa was lovely, but came with nothing special like salts or coloured towels for something extra. No microwave. One teaspoon. The view was nice.

This is the second time we have stayed here and both times it has been incredible. The ocean views are amazing, and you can wake up to a sunrise over the ocean and watch it from bed. The staff are lovely and it's incredible value. Best place to stay on the area!

Front desk lady was brilliant very helpful and cheerful. Location of accommodation is brilliant, with amazing views, rooms look nice and comfortable. But unfortunately where it lost me was the bed was very hard and I don't mind a firmer mattress. Maybe it is just our room and others are better but I couldn't sleep on that bed for more then 1 night. Get better mattresses and I would definately come again.
