The room is not very luxurious, but that is okay because it explodes with shore charm. The oceanside views are spectacular, and there are comfy wooden adirondack chairs to drink your coffee in the a.m. The staff was so lovely, there is a water filling station, and there are beach chairs to use. All in all, a fabulous stay!
