Bahia Resort Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great view, easy stroll to the beach, comfy beds,"

California Suites Hotel

8/10 Good

"Parking can be a bit difficult, but otherwise I think this is a solid budget choice if you're just looking for somewhere to sleep and shower. The room had a mini fridge with a freezer and a microwave, which was nice! It also had a burner that we did not use. Shower was decent. Located close to plenty of food and things to do. Again, great choice if your budget focused. Would stay again!"
