Such a nice place to spend a few days! The owners are wonderful and we fell in love with their dog, Nina, the cutest French bouledogue we’ve ever seen. Plus, it is a quiet place, not too far from the beach. Just perfect.

Wonderful stay. Owner and staff very friendly. We liked that there are only six rooms, all around the pool. Very quiet and adults only. Pool is heated and the pool and hot tub are very clean. Parking free and right outside the property. Rooms very clean with AC. Highly recommend! Enjoyed our stay. Walkable to beach area.

We love the Coral Reef Guest House. This has become our favorite hotel on the Atlantic. Wayne and Jerome, owner and manager, are more than accommodating. Excellent customer service and an actual feeling of family instead of the cold box hotels. Thanks to Jerome, the rooms are spotlessly cleans, the beds are comfortable and the linens are always snow white. As I often say, Corral Reef may not be the Ritz, but it's better than the Ritz.

A fantastic find

A fantastic guesthouse & hosts. Located in a quiet area but still close enough to walk to the beach. Spacious rooms & comfy beds as well as supplying a continental breakfast each day. The hosts were very friendly & always willing to help. Upon arrival, Russell even took the time out to drive us around the nearby area to show us where local amenities were. Would definitely stay again should we return to the area.
