Being able to relax and dine poolside with an ocean view could not be beat. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Landscaping around the property was lovely as well.
I liked the quiet and privacy of the location. Staff were friendly and helpful. Although the rooms are very comfortable, It is a old hotel so there are dings in the walls and baseboards, so ants came in. The ants were quickly taken care of. I would always choose to stay here If they were dog friendly.
This is the best hotel I have ever stayed at. Period. It's not fancy, but it is clean and the view and sounds of the crashing waves is amazing. All of the other guests that I bumped into at breakfast were walking on clouds as I was. It is a little secret paradise.
The property is right by the ocean with beautiful view but no direct access to the beach. The room is nice and clean, hss ceiling fan but no AC, shower has low water pressure. Staff are wonderful and very kind.
I absolutely loved my stay! Every room has a beautiful ocean view, and the heated pool was a fantastic bonus. I was pleasantly surprised with a free upgrade to a deluxe room, which made the experience even better. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming throughout my visit. I highly recommend checking this place out—it's truly a gem!
This is my second visit here and i will definitely return. Great place to stay. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Its a gem.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
Hot water suddenly became cold many times during showers, parking during restaurant hours was abysmal, and the continental breakfast left a lot to be desired (an inn with its own restaurant should offer more). But being able to leave windows open throughout my entire stay, and falling asleep to the surf every night, made up for these deficiencies. Overall I would recommend staying here, as long as you're okay without certain creature comforts.
