Awesome spot! Beautiful location!
Wonderful ocean front spot! Clean, comfortable bed and linens, great balcony and view, friendly staff! Loved the paddle boards and heated pool. Grounds have hammocks, games and loungers on the beach. Incredible sunrise and sunset, good location and easy to access. Can’t wait to stay again!

Cute spot.
The front desk guy was so nice, really just a very friendly guy and I appreciate that. The room was a bit hot -the ac wasn’t working right, it was blowing but not cold air unfortunately. The room itself and bathroom were super cute, the bed and pillows were very comfy, it was nice and quiet and I rested very well other than being a little hot.

Retro trailer
We stayed in the single wide retro trailer. Definitely added a unique experience. Old trailer in much need of updates but the views, property, and staff make up for what the trailer lacks.

Perfect boutique style hotel
This hotel is a real gem. Location is ideal, right on the water with a pool and very comfortable spots to take in the breathtaking views of the ocean. You truly feel like you are off the grid at this very tranquil spot. The staff is extremely kind, and they even let you borrow kayaks to explore.

Amazing place! Beautiful area with great amenities. Only thing was really stiff beds. But if you like very firm mattresses…it’s a 5 star.
That aside …we will definitely be back!!

Not worth it
Not what I expected. Expensive for a run-down motel pretending to be a three-star hotel with “resort” amenities. Everything felt like it was done with minimal effort. Staff was helpful enough but definitely, again, with minimal effort. Do not recommend.

The location was beautiful, rooms should be updated. My biggest complaint is a paid for two rooms, same price for both, but one was very much smaller than the other and no balcony in that same room either ?!?!
