The hotel was so clean, cozy, and inviting. The ocean is right across the street, offering incredible views and beach access. The location was outside of the commercial center, but still so close it was walkable. Finally, the proprietors were very helpful and pleasant. We will most certainly be back.

Great Location right on beach. Views at sunrise and sunset were spectacular. Hosts were friendly and informative and provided a range of games and activities on site that the kids loved.

Nice view, comfortable and clean, close to intersection but not too noisy, walls are thin, could hear the neighbours but was no problem, a coffee sachet for the plunger each morning would be good and maybe coffee sachets could be upgraded to a better brand. Would stay again.
