We had a wonderful stay at the Beach Day Inn! The hotel looks even better in person than it does in the photos. The location is great, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming throughout our visit. The upgraded rooms are beautiful, comfortable, and well worth it. We loved our stay and would definitely come back!

We had a great experience At Beachside Hotel. We were welcomed by friendly Julian. He gave us some recommendations of restaurants and what we could before the everything shut down. The rooms were cozy, clean, and beds were comfortable. We were close to the pool but unfortunately we didn’t go swimming. The pool was well maintained. There was staff on the premises that constantly were maintaining property.
