Best Western on the Beach was the best choice for us due to literally being right on the beach and walking distance to a lot stores and restaurants and I can’t walk too far due to a health condition, but it was in the perfect location and the staff was super friendly and helpful! We will be back for sure!

We loved our stay. It's right on the beach which is soo helpful when traveling with children. The indoor pool was the icing on the cake. The hotel staff were all soo helpful. Each and everyone we encountered was soo helpful and kind. Thanks for making our stay an excellent one. The food at the restaurant was also soo yummy. Allen even went out of his way to help me with some printing issues. Thanks so much. You guys rock.

We love staying here. Beach access is great. Pools are great. I like having an indoor and outdoor option and two hot jet tubs available. The location to local attractions is convenient. The only thing I would suggest is either offering a free breakfast or improving the quality of the restaurant that’s onsite.
