Very family oriented and also good for seniors. Ground was mostly level or very few steps. Grades were not excessively steep. In close proximity to the beach.

Would have liked the Tiki bar to stay open later. But over all we loved our stay. Nothing to complain about. Will definitely be going bk and staying there again. Very family friendly. The price was great! Great views. Close to pier. Shopping is walking distance. There is a bar called Donovans right across the street and Wes the bartender is awesome!!!

Excellent service and friendly staff! Stayed here for 5 nights as part of a destination wedding and couldn't have asked for a better home base. My wife and I especially loved how close we were to the beach and the nearby dining area which had great bars and restaurants. Overall lovely and very pretty.

4/10 Fair

We checked in, went to the room (in the motel portion of the property), and immediately left the room and checked out. There were flies in the room and it smelled like smoke. The online pictures were taken at angles that left out the less undesirable details. The comforters were very old and faded. The room wasn’t necessarily dirty, just very dingy. It was late when we arrived and there were kids running around unattended, people standing around smoking, adults partying loudly in the hot tub. If you are ok staying in motels that have a number in their name you will probably be ok with this place. If you like a refined hotel it is not for you. I would rate this place a 2 star. They did refund all our money less the first night and I thought that fair enough. This place has great reviews. These reviews were left by folks who don’t mind dealing with all the things I’ve listed above.

Not our first choice but it was a decent stay. It was very dated and we had our vehicle vandalized in the parking lot. Some of the housekeeping staff were rude.

Perfect location, old vibe with just enough of current tech to stay comfy but still disengage from the day to day stressors. Love the tiki bar, grill set ups, beach chair access, two pools kid friendly but not overwhelming. It was perfect. Walking distance to shops, dives, and the mainstream touristy spots. Never had to leave. Excellent. Kind of wish I kept it a secret.
