The stay was relaxing and could stare at that ocean view all day.
Pros:

Ease of spending time on the beach was excellent due to the closeness of basically just walking outside your door . Beach was clean and free of any trash. The staff was beyond pleasant and created a great atmosphere. The windows had a great ocean view from our room and there were easy to use light and dark blinds. Nice touch ! Overall a great stay.

Cons:

Could have used a small coffee maker in the room . The lighting in the bathroom by the sink was poor and the fireplace did not work using the remote on the wall. There were no directions for it either. Was a cool rainy night and would have liked to use this feature. My husband got food poisoning from dinner about 3 restaurants up the road our first night there and basically ruined our mini vacation.

Good location but loud
Pros:

Great location with beach access and easy walking distance to the pier and lots of restaurants.

Cons:

The rooms have basically no sound proofing and it was pretty loud. We ran the air conditioner each night just to try to cancel out some of the noise which helped but it was pretty excessive.

Perfect little getaway
Pros:

We had an oceanfront room so beach access and view was a huge perk. I loved the location. It was close enough to be in walking distance of the pier but away enough to not feel super busy.The beds were very comfortable and we were very impressed with the size of the bathroom too. It is always a gem to find kind and accommodating staff and this place hit a home run. Everyone was very friendly. My daughter found the heated pool to be great. Well worth the value.

Cons:

We had requested a cot, and got one but unfortunately it was very uncomfortable and the center gave out. The cots could use a bit of updating. Other than that it was perfect

Great spot to stay for a couple nights!
Pros:

The lobby is super cute and clean. The room was fairly clean albeit a little dusty. Very beachy and cute though. Staff was welcoming and helpful. My daughter really wanted to swim before we left even though it was a chilly day. The woman working turned the pool warmer on and opened the pool early so she could. My daughter got 45 minutes in the water and had a blast. It really started the day off right and made a sweet Mother’s Day memory. The bath tub was great size! We will definitely consider being back.

Cons:

It would be awesome if there was a hot tub. We are beginning a tradition to come every Mother’s Day and it is usually a chilly weekend. Would love to warm up in a hot tub! Some snacks or breakfast options would be super amazing as we come just for the weekend and could use some pick me ups first thing in the morning to go with coffee. The bathroom floor is super slick - out daughter wiped out hard and hit her head and bruises her knee. There is a warning about it slippery when wet but the floor wasn’t wet and she wiped out hard. The floors are pretty but not ideal for kids or anyone prone to falling. Otherwise it’s really great.
