Loved the private beach and the onsite parking garage. The room was perfect for what we needed to enjoy a week on the beach and in walking distance to restaurants/entertainment.
The beach service was amazing and all drink/food were delicious. The beach chairs and umbrellas are placed perfectly on the beach allowing you to stay out until sunset.
I will definitely be returning to this location. Charming staff, casual, and comfortable family atmosphere, clean rooms and property well maintained an all areas.

I really like this property. It was very clean and the staff was wonderful. Right on the beach on a nice restaurant.
The hotel's location was great. The restaurant in the hotel was perfect for breakfast and the neighboring hotel has a great rooftop deck with pizzas and a great sunset view.
The private beach was wonderful! Parking was very easy and although a little pricey- it was on par with the area.
The staff were great.
We would definitely stay here again.
We had a very nice stay. It is a very family oriented hotel. Our only complaint is the building is outdated. The elevators are very slow and there is only 1 ice machine for the entire hotel. However, the actual rooms are clean and updated. The hotel is located in a great area.
The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The cleaning staff did a wonderful job cleaning the room when I was out. While there aren't amenities like a gym, the beach and pool more than make up for that.
Good value for the money - great location, Kids loved the pool, Beach was nice. Nice to have a balcony in the room and free coffee each morning. It’s not the fanciest place but serviceable and clean - met our needs for a short stay.
Great place to stay! Room was spacious and clean. Amenities, pool and beach, were also great! Definitely recommend for a couple get away or family vacation.
Smaller but nice hotel, room was pleasant and clean and beds comfy, staff helpful. Restaurant good and not too pricy. Pool and private beach were nice, though the beach furniture for rent filled up 90% of the beach. Our only disappointment was the location. My husband does not walk well, so I chose this hotel as being right on the beach; but it is on a bay without a good view of the main body of the gulf, and the surf is very tame. I liked the large public beach better but it was 15 minute walk up the road (husband didn't go).
