The place was nice, but not what I expected- it’s a motel and none of the photos really showed that-they’re a little misleading-not sure they represent the property as is-but the amenities were nice and we had a nice stay.

Staff was friendly and we appreciate the room upgrades and the staff acknowledging our anniversary with some sparkling wine and chocolate. The room was well appointed and clean. The free bike rental was great too.

A nice place overall. I think most of the rooms have been renovated. Initially, we were placed in room 1 (an older room) but after requesting a room change, we were moved into a newer and quieter room. The staff is friendly and helpful. Good location as well. I would stay again.

A beautiful, charming place with good-sized rooms. Excellent breakfast with a good selection. Also a variety of things available during the day - the hot spiced apple cider was EXCELLENT. Especially welcome during that cool, rainy week. Staff was very helpful. All around, our favorite place that we stayed on our trip. Only suggestion would be better places to plug in phones, chargers, etc., in the room.

It was a beautiful penthouse apartment with an outdoor space. We had a good breakfast every day and a good bed to rest on each night. Staff was very helpful, and we used the free bike rental. Would definitely stay there again!

The staff at this hotel are truly amazing. They work together like a family and offer fantastic local suggestions for food, sights, and beaches. The beds are comfortable, the rooms are lovely, and I especially appreciated the enclosed glass showers—so much nicer than dealing with a shower curtain! We took the hotel’s bikes for a beautiful sunset ride along the beach just down the street, and they even had two kids’ bikes available. The hotel itself is quaint and thoughtfully laid out, with gorgeous grounds. The heated pool was a highlight, and we loved enjoying evening swims. Breakfast in the morning, coffee and tea available all day and evening cheese, crackers, wine and cookies. Overall, a wonderful stay. Highly recommend!
We celebrated our anniversary here. What a lovely surprise!
