This was hands-down our favorite stay during our Florida road trip. Honestly, if I had trusted some of the online reviews, I wouldn’t have booked it — and that would have been such a loss. This place is being torn down soon to make room for condos, and the new hotel being built next door to this one doesn’t even face the ocean. There’s less than a year left to experience this hidden gem. We absolutely loved it. The room was clean, the staff was genuinely friendly, and the view? Unreal. Every evening we were treated to stunning, magical sunsets. You come here for the view, not the extras — so definitely book one of the colored rooms facing the ocean. We stayed in the baby-blue room on the bottom floor, loved it so much, and ended up adding two extra nights. This isn’t a resort, so if you’re expecting resort-style amenities, this isn’t the place. The pillows weren’t the best (bring your own if you’re picky), but being able to step right outside and launch my kayak into Kings Bay was a dream. Stay here. It is absolutely worth it.

Cute, older style rooms with beautiful views of the marina and sunset. Love how quaint and authentic the place was. And, a lovely, safe walking area around too. Loved our stay!
