Hi Angel,
We are so happy to hear your stay was quiet, and nice. Being up on the bluff, eliminates the sound of traffic, so you can enjoy the ocean waves! We are so happy you enjoyed it. We hope to see you again!

The hotel is located on top a cliff with amazing views. Quite stellar in my opinion. The staff was very friendly and extremely accommodating. The sound of the ocean waves crashing against the beach provided a sense of ease and soothed the mind. But their are some caveats to this place.
Like many others have said, the parking is quite tight and small. If you drive a long car or even a truck, be forewarned, it will be extremely difficult to get out or maybe even park. Due to where the hotel is situated, it experiences the harshness of the ocean's salt. You can see the effects of it on the hotel. None-the-less it is expected and for me, at least, wasn't a big issue (I still felt safe). Actually gave the place some charm to me with this rustic feel.
The town that this hotel located at is quite small. You could actually walk from the hotel straight to the town within 15 minutes and thankfully most of the major shops are located on the main street. I'd recommend stopping by The Little Green Bean for some coffee and Lisa's Jams for some homemade specialty jams. For dining, the restaurant by the pier was pretty good. As a heads up though, I noticed some of the restaurants are only open during certain days, so plan ahead and Google Maps (street view!) the town.
Regardless, I loved this place. It had a nice charm to it and I would recommend this place to anyone else. Still needs a little work but I give it a 4/5! I'll be back to stay in the future.

I had been traveling on my motorcycle and this was a real gem! You ride all the way out to the beach and then up a very un-motorcycle friendly hill. I rode up to the main office but I would just park below next time as there is limited turn around room and you are on a very steep hill. That said this place is amazing. You are staying right on the edge of a cliff overlooking the ocean with amazing views and just absolutely beautiful rooms. The room was large and very clean, great soaker Jacuzzi tub, private balcony, fire place, and great WIFI. There is NO cell reception but the WIFI is fab and I had no problem texting once I was connected or watching netflix on my ipad. A short walk down the hill and you have 2 restaurant options which were both very good and easy to get to. You have fabulous access to the beach and pier so that you can take in the breathtaking views and watch a glorious sunset. It was quiet, the stars were amazing at night, and I would definitely be back!
