Excellent Ocean View. Property had some quirks: NO Microwave ovens in the rooms, or on the property (We asked). Microwave was needed for heat pack to treat chronic medical condition. NO A/C unit in room. Not really needed if there was a way to get fresh air into the room at night. However, the only way to get ventilation into the main part of the room was the one large sliding door, which had no screen. So at night the sliding door had to be closed, so no way to get the fresh ocean breeze inside. We were quite warm overnight.

thanks for your lovely staff

The property is a welcome treat while traveling, but it could use some help with updating and acoustics. Overall i think guests are kind and being considerate to be quiet, but there are just noises and squeaks, and what not from the age of the facility. You can hear cupboard doors open and conversations in other rooms. Our bed and pillows were nice, sheets could use a little upgrade too.

Outdated Hotel with a great view

Room was clean but outdated. The carpet needs refreshing. The view of the room was spectacular. The fireplace was a nice feature but the room did smell like a fire pit. The jets on the spa did not work. The Wi-Fi was spotty and the TV cable was static and you don’t get a lot of clear channels.

Would stay again. Great value.

Easy check in and out. The breakfast in the restaurant was really good. Healthy choices and really tasty. The vegan breakfast burrito was so good and I’m not even vegetarian. Good Steel-cut oatmeal too. Room was as described, clean and comfortable. Property right on the beach and lots of little amenities to help enjoy the beachfront.

This is a lovely place to stay. It is ocean front with a fun space to spend time by the ocean. It is an older facility but in relatively good condition. We enjoyed it and would go back.
