Exactly as advertised ! Worth the extra $$ for the ocean front room since they are also the furthest from the noisy road making those the quietest rooms .

This was a lovely small hotel situated within a 5 minute walk to the beautiful Crescent Bay beach. Sal and his family were so friendly and welcoming, giving us loads of tips on things to do. They went above and beyond to make our stay just perfect. The room was clean, very comfortable and extremely well equipped. We loved it

This hotel was awesome. Clean, local to where we celebrated our anniversary dinner. Staff was so friendly & went above & beyond showing us the pathway to the beach, which was a 3 minute walk, even offered to start the patio fire pit for us. Only down side, we had an oceanfront room & the trees needed to be trimmed to see the ocean, but I believe it’s a property in front of the view. We will definitely be back!
