Very clean and inviting room comfortable great pool area beach access
We loved the ocean view. The staff were friendly and helpful when we inquired about places to eat. Our room has been remodeled, and it’s very nice.
The pool and spa were clean.

Friendly staff, were kind to my little kids, clean rooms, especially considering the beach is right there the rooms were clean of sand. Decent size fridge and small yet usable kitchen for meals. Plus a nice pool.
Even though there was construction going on while I stayed there, the room was comfortable and the pool area was great. The fireplace died after a couple of nights, but it was still a great view.
The room was great. We had a great view. We enjoyed our stay. Great beach access. We got great use out of them pool and hot tub. I would definitely come back.

Loved being close to the beach; affordable and will visit again.
Good ocean view but no screens so had to keep door shut to keep bugs out. Hot tub was on but no bubbles. Nice view and great beach access. Have warm pool. Shower and room were up-to-date and nice. Beds very comfortable.
