Restaurant was closed (did not look like it was under construction, looked complete and beautifully done) and there was nothing within walking distance. Had to drive the very painful 5 miles (going 35 mph) to the nearest restaurant. Property was beautiful, and quiet but i also visited in the winter, im sure it is very loud in the summer with rooms just above the pool area…beds were way too hard, and coffee in room and in lobby was horrible. That could definitely be improved. Each room has an ocean view, beautiful sunsets. I’m not sure I would book again even with the beauty of the building and surrounding beach. The very hard beds made it hard to get a good nights sleep and the horrible coffee even harder to get started with my day..lol. Those are two very important things for me.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Black curly hairs in bathroom. Heater very loud. Heater cover fell off in the middle of the night and scared us half to death. Dining was closed so no breakfast. No restaurants nearby.

This property is nicely updated with direct ocean views in every room. The rooms are nicely decorated and comfortable. The large mini fridge and microwave are a plus. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. I left my favorite pillow there after departing and the staff saved it for me until I could pick it up. I highly recommend this hotel and will definitely come back!

The property is clean for a beachfront property. They’re doing a bunch of renovation since the new owners have taken over. We’ve been coming down here for years and love it.

Have stayed at this location under different ownerships. The hotel has been upgraded and everything was very good during our stay. The restaurant was closed but we new that when we reserved our room. Kind of quiet this time as it was the weekend between Christmas and New Years 2025. Hotel staff were very nice a accommodating. Would very much recommend.
