We stayed for 5 days and it was an amazing stay! There was an ice machine, fresh hot coffee every morning around 8. The room was super clean and the bathroom was fully cleaned and stocked with toiletries, toilet paper and a plunger as well. The ocean front/beach front was about 600 ft away which was amazing! The staff were absolutely amazing, very friendly and knowledgeable on the area! Shirley at the front desk was amazing to be around and funny as heck! Would highly recommend staying here if you’re around or looking!

The room was clean. The shower is very small. Also it was a weird setup as I was in a room at the top of the stairs and when you open the door, the bed was right there in the view.

Property was extremely clean (not just the rooms…the whole place). You couldn’t get any closer to the beach! The motel is well within walking distance of The Pier and other restaurants and amenities. The view is spectacular! The owners ( who we were fortunate enough to meet) were so nice and helpful! Thanks for a great experience…we will definitely come back!
