This property has lots of chill things to do. I enjoyed the private balcony and also beyond the balcony was tables and chairs you could sit on and enjoy the view or play cornhole. I really enjoyed the deck, it lit up so beautiful at night, a very enjoyable place to sit and listen to the waves at night and a even greater view of the beach in the daytime. The breakfast is nice as well.
I didn't like that my stay was so short.

The property was the perfect location. Not only is it central to many major landmarks, it is steps away from the beach! I loved the ocean view from our balcony, comfortable boardwalk walkway to the beach and beautiful pavilion overlooking the water with chairs to relax. Breakfast had a good variety, the waffles were a hit. They also have a nice pool area. Overall I would recommend this place. Thank you for making our stay a memorable one!
I think they need a mirror in the room so that others can get ready when the bathroom is occupied. There was only 1 day the staff didn’t get to our room for cleaning service. Otherwise loved everything.

The property was very clean cleaning lady did amazing considering the sand a seaweed that tracks into room , no bugs , easy check in / out , right on the beach and there’s even a nice picnic area under the gazebo , the pool was nice aswell and 8 feet deep! i also liked that the shower has shampoo conditioner and body wash bottles not the typical tiny ones , overall the hotel was very nice we would stay again
one complaint is the elevator in our building was a little sketchy seemed a little run down but we just used the stairs instead , was a little challenging brining all our stuff in bc we were on the 3rd floor

Alot of updates since the last time we've been about almost 5 years since our last stay and we use to come quite often.
The parking definitely could improve. Either find some way to make more parking or have have assigned numbers to the rooms or assigned numbers and whomever shows up first gets the better parking. We had issues 2 nights where there weren't any spots available. And I'm guessing wasn't just me either bc I seen 2 /3 others having to jus park to the side of the parking lot or in front of office

The location was perfect and the rooms were nice!
The room we booked was ocean front but only accessible by stairs. They did accommodate us with a similar room in a different location though and that one had an elevator. They have 3 different buildings, and the free breakfast was in a totally different building than where we stayed. There was no phone in our room so if we needed to contact the front office we had to call the motel from our cell phone or walk down to the office. There was no information sheet in the room with TV instructions or hotel rules and check out times or nearby places to eat etc…

Fabulous location! Walking distance to so much. LOVED being on the beach so we didn't have to wagon things from the rental houses! Easy short drives to extra sites and attractions. Breakfast was great each day with dedicated staff ensuring nothing ran out. Even though I know there was family's staying around us I never really heard sounds from other rooms. Though I was traveling with kids as well but was super surprised how quiet it was in our room. Pool is cleaned daily. Housekeeping is amazing at keeping up especially with the sand. Will definitely be back!
Parking got a bit tricky but then I realized on the last day there was overflow lot in front of building 2... so that's kinda on me.

Excellent location next to the beach. The pavilion gave a beautiful view of the ocean and was just a comfortable place to relax in the evening. VERY CLEAN!! And the shower water pressure was impressive and nice.
There was a wedding with reception in the courtyard that was literally outside our back door patio. We were unable to use the courtyard picnic area that day or direct beach access due to the wedding. It would have been appreciated if we were given notice prior to our arrival . Especially because we weren’t able to use the amenities that we paid for all day. So we weren’t happy about that at all.

This is a legacy property that has not only been meticulously maintained but also nicely updated. The staff knows when to help and when to allow us to enjoy the amenities at our own pace. I've driven past this property for more than 40 years, but never chose it. I'm glad we did this time - and we'll most certainly go back. Two other couples accompanied us, and we thoroughly enjoyed much of what the hotel had to offer.
The breakfast area was a bit crowded and noisy. On the other hand, this isn't an executive lounge - it's perfect for family vacations - and most of the noise came from children. Could be a bit bigger, though.

Loved: Included breakfast - was perfect for our family. Loved that we had a refrigerator and microwave in the room Loved the cleanliness of the property and the room, Loved the staff - front desk, cafe personnel, maids, property workers - all were friendly and professional. Loved the location. The price was reasonable since got a last minute special. Loved the proximity to the ocean and the huge gazebo and chairs that look over the ocean.
I can't think of anything that could have been better.
