So convenient with the beach access there and the great on site restaurant with live music. Our room was large and had a mini fridge, coffee maker, wet bar and even some basic dishes and microwave. Laid back vibe was nice. Some minor cosmetic defects with the room but we felt like it was a good value and great character. We would stay again.

I was very pleased with our stay, we got what we expected and more! The Beach VIEWS surprised us, we were able to see the beach out our front AND back windows! We never had an issue with parking (extra parking across the street). Definitely got our money worth. Read the reviews, they set expectations. We will be back.
