A block from the beach. Doesn’t get much better. Suzanne is an excellent host. They provide towels, umbrellas, and chairs for the beach, access for discounted beach passes, and umbrellas for the unfortunate day it rains. Breakfast was good and ample.

This was such a lovely place to stay!! The property is less than a block from the beach, with views from the balcony and beach chairs and towels available to borrow to take to the beach. The breakfast was delicious and freshly made. The vibes were impeccable. I would stay here again and again.

We had the best stay at The Lillagaard! We were only there for one night but wish we stayed longer. From the very start, the owner, Suzanne, was beyond accommodating. She called to see when I would be checking in and when I told her I was going to be in town earlier than expected she offered an early check in since the room was ready. The property has a stunning view of the ocean and plenty of porch seating on various levels to take it in. The house is full of charm and everything was very clean. The room was comfortable and charming. It was a little chilly later in the day and before I could even ask, Suzanne, brought an extra blanket to the room. The hot breakfast was more than we expected and I loved that we could customize our order. You cannot find a friendly or more accommodating staff. Overall amazing experience and if you are looking for a place to relax and unwind at the beach, then I could not recommend this place enough! We can’t wait to visit again!

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Even though the staff was very polite and service oriented the building was old, the showers and bathrooms were community showers and bathrooms in each floor. In the shower the handles had mold. When anyone in the building open a faucet, flushed the toilet or showered you could hear it in the dinning room area located in the basement. We were staying in the 3rd floor and the staircase was steep with a very low handrail. The floors creaked. In the middle of the night the retractable window shades popped out of the window shade and fell on the floor. Will stay there again.
