The day before arrival I was called to say they were closing due to unforeseen circumstances and was moving our reservation to a sister property. I told him I would go check the property out online and get back to him if that was sufficient. I called back several times over 24 hrs and no answer. We had this trip planned for several months and at last moment was unsure of what to do. We did still fly out because of not wanting to miss our trip. We were out at a different location that wasn’t as nice as the location we booked. We were offered no money back and was never able to speak to our location first booked.

HOPE ITS BOUGHT BY NICE PEOPLE

The person at the front desk was so rude and could not give me and my niece the time of day let alone greet us with a smile. Also, an OCEAN VIEW does not mean that I stand on my tip toes to see over the cars in the parking lot to a smidgen of the ocean. I would have paid more for a room with a true view. Also, apparently the noise hours didn't apply to those in the room above me.

Lovely, quaint, modern...and literally right across the street from an incredible walkway along the ocean. Even in off-season, staff is excellent and engaging, and property is immaculate. Clean, with a historical charm. Will absolutely recommend and hope to stay here again!

Our room was on the side on the 3rd floor of main building. Had a nice ocean view and balcony and room was large, clean, and comfortable. Looked to be recently redone so everything was fresh and had a nice coastal vibe. Hotel currently doesn't have food/beverage, but it's in a great location and an easy walk to restaurants and the beach. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Would stay again without hestitation.
