The location is incredible! Right on the beach. Just amazing views! However I had to change rooms because the bathroom sink was stopped up and gurgling black stuff up. The second room had the same problem with the sink. There’s cigarette butts all over the grounds. Trash is blowing around. The stay was supposed to be for quiet and relaxing peace. The other vacationers were very loud and stomping all night. Won’t be very likely to go back.

This is a nice motel. It's not fancy, but is comfortable, clean, and is oceanfront. The kitchenette enabled us to not have to eat out every meal. It has a nice indoor pool and hot tub for the winter.The staff were great.

Excellent location and ocean view. Property is very dated. Bathroom door wouldn't close and fan very loud. Harsh lighting. Television also dated. No phone in room. If you don't mind these things, it was otherwise comfortable and worth the cost.
