My grown son's and I spend a few days here and everything was wonderful with the motel. The restaurant across the street wasn't open for breakfast but down the street about 2 miles was a nice place overlooking the ocean. The staff at the motel were nice and pleasant. Our room was clean and spacious enough for the for of us. 10 out of 10 would stay here again.

Every year I come and stay at the Beachside. The hotel is older - no elevator, some rooms do not have a microwave - I don’t mind. This hotel has got charm and the location is incredible! The rooms are always clean, the grounds are well taken care of and the staff are friendly and helpful. I cannot wait until my next visit!

Check in was great, more mature woman, very helpful and friendly. Knowing we would be headed out early/before breakfast to play golf, she volunteered to get us “something from the kitchen” as we walked by early in the morning. She was very friendly and going out of her way to make sure we enjoyed our stay. Sorry we did not recall her name.

Everything worked out fine. The beach was within a short walk and could be seen if you sit on the walkway/balcony. Just remember, the older retro motels may not have elevators if you have knee or back problems.Check in was very pleasant with a sweet young lady making sure everything was explained in a friendly manner. We will stay here again.
