Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
The Waves is a great place to stay with a super convenient location. It’s a short walk to the beach, coffee, restaurants, shops, etc.. everything was amazing!
The property was perfectly placed just off the beach, just a couple minute walk. The grounds and the room was clean. The staff was INCREDIBLY helpful with helping us get a feel for the area. The staff was generous with random requests we had. The only thing I would have hoped for is maybe a desk or a place to sit - the bed had to be pretty much the multipurpose communal area.

Wonderful accommodations. Fantastic location! A wonderful place to visit.
A great place and we had a room right on the beach. The place was extremely clean. The staff were very friendly. Murphy bed was more comfortable than the actual bed, which was comfortable also— a great place.
Nice place with great location. Really close to everything. Right on the beach. Parking lot is very tight although I think street parking is available as well.
Good location. Walking distance for anything including the main office. Laundry is coin op and machines seemed old and unclean. Room was clean and smelled clean. In the heart of town/shopping, 5 min walk to the beach.
We liked how close it was to the beach, shops, and restaurants. Truly a super location! There was ample parking. Also, the room was spacious, well-appointed, and confortable. We liked the friendly staff plus the easy checkin and checkout process.
Front desk was great, room was clean. Only thing keeping this from being a 5 star was no screens on the windows - we like having windows open for the breeze and hearing the ocean. All else was great.
The place was comfortable. Not much of a view. From the photos it looked much closer. Also you can hear the people above you walking all over.
The place was clean and comfortable.
Great location. Easy check in and out. Very nice room bed mini kitchen and bathroom. A block away from beach access and a half block from food and shops. Couldn’t ‘t be better.
Really cute place right off the beach. Some rooms are on the beach but it’s only a few feet to walk to the beach. Very clean and Bills Tavern is just a couple minute walk with great food and home brews. Would definitely stay again!
