Our stay was wonderful. The rooms were clean and the bed was very comfortable. We got lucky with our stay and got complimentary wine tasting, and the young lady serving was so sweet. The breakfast was the perfect start to our mornings before our boardwalk stroll. I definitely recommend this hotel.

Lovely little property. We really enjoyed our stay. The guy at the front desk was super nice . I loved the wine they had onsite and not over priced. The pool was great and very clean. They had fresh bread for breakfast and it was perfect with a cup of coffee. Thanks for a great stay

The staff was very helpful in making a reservation for an upstairs oceanview room. A balcony oceanview room is one of the best features of the place. Also really liked the closeness to the walking trails near the beach; morning coffee and pastries available in the lobby; onsite afternoon wine tasting; very comfortable bed; bathroom shower and amenities; and easy parking. Excellent place. Highly recommended.

The location of the hotel is just perfect across the road from the ocean. You can hear the waves crashing from the room 107 that has a balcony facing the ocean. The room was large and spacious with 2 queen beds and the sitting room with sofa. I would definitely stay here again.

What a beautiful setting right on Moonstone beach, feet away from the small boardwalk and beach/cliffs. Some rooms have beautiful ocean views. They are slowly remodeling the rooms and we were in one of the newly redone ones. It was very spacious with extremely high-end finishes and tastefully done. Bed was very comfortable with pillowtop. Bathrooms were beautiful. Once all the rooms are completed I'm sure this will be a top destination.

I liked how the room was clean and the staff is knowledgeable. The coffee and pastries in the morning was a good touch for a lazy lie in. The jacuzzi didn't work while we were there, which was a bit disappointing. I would book here again.
