Stay here with my niece recently and absolutely loved the room! Everything was newly redone and very thoughtful decorated! Lots of little extras that made it feel homey and a step above just the regular room. The location was great… Right on the beach… Beautiful pool with plenty of lounge chairs and towels. Definitely plan to come here again!

directly on the ocean...we did not have a parking problem, but if they have a full house they have 18 spots and 26 rooms. so, beware. clean, crystal clear water in the pool. the outdoor fire pits were not functioning due to salt corrosion, per the front desk. about a mile walk to the boardwalk. nice fireworks show there every thurs. very close to the water. i would stay again.

Property was very clean and well maintained. Rooms were decorated nicely. Although it was a pet friendly hotel there were no signs of pet hair or odors. Great location and easy access to the beach. The only thing I would recommend is taking a sleep mask since there are bright lights outside of the windows and no curtains to close.

Hotel location and parking is convenient. Brianna was very helpful at check in. The room was very clean and the bath/shower was updated and very clean. The pool area was welcoming and the walk to the beach was very convenient. Relaxed and well appointed areas for seating at the end of the hotel before the beach access. Our room had a very nice refrigerator, but no microwave. (In room Keurig coffee maker was nice, but you may want your own pods - the “house” pods were “meh”).

What a great location! My family and I were so pleased with your property and the lovely room we stayed in. The proximity to the beach, the cleanliness of the room and the overall appeal of your site made for a memorable stay. It was particularly pleasing to have a roaring fire displayed on the tv just waiting for us when we checked in! Thank you again for all the attention to the small details that made our stay perfect.

The property was newly renovated and very clean. Pool was clean and maintained daily. The hotel is convenient to the beach. The lobby is not staffed for the majority of the time. There was no room service the three days during our stay. Towels were not kept in stock at the pool. When asked for fresh towels a staff member said they would bring some but never did.
