Despite appearing to being understaffed with single staff members performing multiple duties, the staff was very helpful and courteous. The location is wonderful and the view is tremendous!
It’s a solid three star hotel. Me and my friend had a good time. The staff were very friendly, the pool was nice and so was the restaurant and direct beach access. We’d stay again.
The View was amazing. The beach was very close, the staff are quick to put up an umbrella for you. Pool great for kids. Front desk staff great during any situation.
We had a very nice time here! Location is quiet and very beautiful! Rooms are comfy and great ocean views. Restaurant and bar on premises are very good! Only complaint was beach/pool towels were limited and/or very small/not thick.
We enjoyed the stay, staff seemed to be helpful. We had a problem w/balcony, woke up one morning & water all over it, after they fixed AC/ it became worse. We think a whole new system was needed. Other than that, not a bad place.
I loved this hotel. Nothing fancy but the vibe is low key and casual… loved the oceanfront location and balcony on each room. The area behind the hotel is so cool, sandy area with tables overlooking the beach as well as a pool and tiki bar. The restaurant is very good, biscuits were homemade and best I’ve had. The staff was so helpful and pleasant. Nice beach chairs and umbrellas. The a/c is cool and bed very comfy!
The location and value for the price was excellent. The pool and proximity to the beach was ideal for relaxation.
The property seemed to be short staffed, which led to the restaurant not being open for breakfast or extended hours at night. Parking was good and plenty of luggage carts for guest check-in.
Give yourself time for check-in or head straight to the beach and let the line die down, which worked great for us.
Our room certainly needed some maintenance with ceiling peeling and humidity taking its toll on the bathroom and balcony, but the beds were comfortable. The life machine was broken on the 4th floor, but we were able to access some from the floor below.
All in all, we would visit again.
Staff was very friendly and welcoming. Hotel was clean and rates were very reasonable, especially for a hotel on the beach with ocean views and direct access. They provided chairs and umbrellas for the beach as well as towels for the pool/ hot tub.
