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!

It is a good place a quality time with family. Its closeness to beach makes it very convinient. However, the breakfast room is too small, and very limited breakfast options.

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.

Disliked: Staff & service
The location of the hotel could not be better, VERY close to the beach. But the hotel is very dated, shabby rusted furniture in the rooms. Parking lot and pool deck are not well maintained. The rooms are non-smoking, but they have tables and chairs right outside the room doors where people are always out smoking.
