Hideaway was absolutely amazing. What made it even more so was the staff. We arrived earlier than anticipated and was able to remain in the lobby waiting til our room was ready. Gwen and Monique were the best at making us feel relaxed and taken care of. And the breakfast the next morning was delicious! Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend to anyone. We are already future planning our next trip back because of how welcoming everyone was.

When I arrived after midnight after a long, tiring drive, I was greeted by a very friendly manager who was kind to give me a later check out when I asked. The hotel and my ADA king room were beautiful and luxurious, providing the rest and easy morning I needed. I look forward to staying here again.

We stayed in the Tree Top Suite. It was spacious and quiet. Breakfast in the solarium was beautiful and relaxing. We were served wine and cookies upon arrival and there is a parking garage available which was very convenient. The bathroom was large and newly renovated. The staff were very welcoming and helpful and the property is very clean. It’s a perfect boutique hotel and we will definitely be back.

Great location. Front desk was very nice and accommodated us with a late check in. Loved the frogs croaking outside. Was a busy noisy next door with a group of dudes. Parking was also a bit of an issue. We were in a truck and could barely fit in the last available compact space at the very end of the property. Some cars were double parked, but at least it’s something. Door to balcony was also left open when we arrived there were mosquitos inside. Other than that absolutely loved the upstairs space we had with the fireplace.

This is a beautiful cottage. We really enjoyed staying here. The decor is beautiful rather beachy and the rooms are very nicely done super super clean within walking distance of restaurants and shops and the harbor. Breakfast was lovely. We enjoyed it in the sunroom. The only caveat I would say is if you’re staying here be aware there’s a lot of stairs
