Nicely renovated old style motel that is attempting to be more upscale but still lacks some accouterments to achieve that. They push a little to hard on trying to sell extras from wine to blankets.

We enjoyed the complimentary bottle of sparkling wine while watching the sun set over the ocean from the lobby lounge area. Local dining featured excellent seafood and interesting desserts. The continental breakfast served in the lobby included great lemon and pumpkin breads. The weather was perfect for us, since it was cool and we were looking for relief from the heat.

There are so many cute perks and personal feel to this place. The owner and staffs make the experience memorable from the kombucha at check-in (or sparkling wine if VIP), delicious pastries at breakfast, or saltwater taffies at check-out. Cozy, coastal-design rooms and shared areas. Right across from the moonstone beach and the boardwalk.
