This motel was perfect for our coastal getaway. The location couldn’t be better — just steps from the beach with ocean views all around. The staff were genuinely friendly and always ready to help with anything we needed. Parking was easy and right in front of our room, which made everything super convenient. We’ll definitely stay here again!

I am reluctant to leave a poor review of the room because the gentleman at the front desk was so nice and the housekeeping staff was very nice and helped us with everything we needed. More attention needs to be paid to the room overall, but if you are okay with that and are looking for a place within walking distance to an absolutely beautiful beach, then this is the place for you! The sunset from the back deck was phenomenal! My family has a very good time there together.
Beautiful sunset from the back deck of the room. Right on the beach.

We arrived about four hours later than planned, close to 1 a.m. The front desk called and gave us the smart lock code, so check-in was super smooth. When we woke up the next morning, the ocean view absolutely took our breath away. We’ll definitely be back!

We arrived in the middle of a heavy storm, but the kindness of the staff and the cozy room made us feel right at home. The room was clean, warm, and comfortable — exactly what we needed while the wind and rain raged outside. The next morning, we watched the waves calm down and the sun break through the clouds — it was beautiful. Even in the storm, this place felt peaceful and full of warmth. We’ll definitely be back!
