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.

The property is charming and historic. With that the room was tiny and awkward. The sink was in the bedroom and there only two electrical outlets. One for the window A/C and the other behind the bed. Great breakfast. Two coffee options, various hot and cold choices. Porches to sit out and enjoy the fresh sea air. Street parking was no problem. Just a few steps from the beach and boardwalk. One other unusual item was the doorknobs. They are very low. You have to bend down really low to lock and unlock the door to the room. I guess this adds to the charm.

I had a wonderful stay at this charming bed and breakfast. The property is beautifully maintained, with great attention to detail and a lovely Victorian style atmosphere. My room was very full of character, although I have to say that the single room was quite small. However, everything was extremely clean, well cared for, and thoughtfully arranged.a special mention goes to Deborah, who was absolutely wonderful. She is not only kind and welcoming, but she has a rare ability to make guests feel truly at home. Her warmth, care, and genuine hospitality made my stay even more special. Thank you, Deborah, for your exceptional hospitality!I also had the pleasure of meeting Teresa, who was incredibly kind and welcoming. She added an extra touch of warmth to my stay, and her homemade cookies were absolutely delicious — truly wonderful!the breakfast was excellent: generous, varied, and delicious, with great attention to quality.Overall, this is a lovely place with a unique charm, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy and welcoming stay.

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.
