Natural beauty
We soaked in all the quiet we were looking for....in a very comfortable room with a view of the ocean. Motor Inn and Harbor House staff were warm and helpful and accommodating. The pool was a delightful oasis of calm surrounded by flowers. White butterflies enjoyed, too. We would very much look forward to a next time!

Sands of time is a gem. Prime location for starters and also a meticulously maintained property with retro appeal. Started everyday with a water view and coffee on our balcony. Ended everyday in the heated pool before a stroll to dinner at any number of good restaurants. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful—everyone made an effort to see that our stay was pleasant. The water, the beach, and a great place to stay. We will go again and again.
