Amazing experience. Looking at the building from the outside from the street you wouldn’t expect how nice the property truly is.

I looked at many other properties in the area and had a hard time choosing, but I'm glad I chose this hotel over all of the others. The location is perfect - directly on the beach, beautiful pool with pool bar/food, plenty of open space to relax and play, and an area across the street to watch the sunset. They also have chairs/umbrellas and boogie boards to rent, so no need to source these items on your own. Our room with a patio overlooking the ocean was beautiful. Plenty of room for a family of four. They also provide a nice tote bag in the room to use to bring your items to the beach, which I thought was a really nice touch. I would definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay at Trailborn. The decor of the rooms and the lobby have a great beach outdoor vibe. They offer a lot of activities like kayaking, boat rides, and boogie boards/paddle boards at the resort. The Hotel is a short walk from great coffee shops and restaurants and there are a host of other great restaurants within a 5 to 10 minute drive. The room was very clean and the beach view was excellent. We really enjoyed our stay and plan to come back again!
