Beach tradition

An older motel, but in excellent condition, the Cape Pines has large updated rooms paneled in pine. The bed was very comfortable, the furnishings attractive, and the manager even called to make sure everything would be ready when we arrived.

If you are looking for a posh place this is not it. It is a good basic place to stay. The room size is great and the room was clean. The bed was comfortable and the shower had good water pressure. We would stay there again.
