Lovely Stay

Lovely one night stay with my husband. This hotel is nicely situated. Quiet but still walking distance to shopping, restaurants and the beach. EV charging was also a big plus! Our room was very clean, comfortable and cozy. Decorations were tasteful. Loved the small fountain in our entry way + balcony and fireplace. The bed and pillows were a little soft for our liking. The breakfast basket was so cute. We appreciate little touches like that, including the chocolate chip cookies upon check in. Our biggest complaint would be the WI-FI speed. Super duper slow! Otherwise a really nice stay. We would consider returning for sure!

Rooms were nicely decorated, beds comfortable, plenty of closet space. Bathroom was nice, but slightly cramped. Nice surprise was daily breakfast, delivered to your room. It was delicious and beautifully packaged. Staff was friendly and helpful and went above and to make sure we had everything we needed. Parking can be challenging though. I would return here in a heartbeat!

Loved out stay at Tradewinds! So close to everything, but also far enough away to be a quiet retreat! The rooms are large with comfy bed, and a large patio to enjoy the cool evening. Loved the morning breakfast drop offs at our door. Would definitely stay again.
