Have stayed previous to this stay in one of the 2 bedroom cottages. This time we were in the 2 level section and it was great until we went to bed. Neighbors above us were up at 5am stomping around. Assuming it was water pipes

Kind staff, clean room and beautiful view. The only complaint is that one of the blinds were broken in our room so we could not enjoy the full ocean view. Also there is no coffee in the lobby as mentioned. Wonderful comfortable stay overall.

Great stay! Only thing was that the heat was on when we arrived and the temperature was 93 degrees. Don’t know why but the maintenance guy stopped by and was very apologetic about leaving the heat on. It did take most of the evening to get the heat out of the place. I will book another stay in the future.

The staff was great, the view was amazing but Booking. Com deceived me with the pictures of my room which was not what I got. I won’t book there though them again because of this I will only go through the hotel. Again it’s not the hotels fault it’s the booking agency

This room was great, staff great. You should not put children upstairs. The first day they ran for 5 hours above our head, yes 5 hours. Sounded like a herd of elephants. The view is great! Based on view it's a 5!

The view from room 217 is outstanding and I will look for that room again upon our next visit. This is an older motel, no elevator but has a full kitchen and seperate bedroom. Some road noise but it's not bad. Takes a couple of minutes for the hot water to get to the faucets and I think the shower is possessed. Difficult to find a comfortable temperature and will go ice cold if someone uses the hot water from another room.
