Staff was kind breakfasts was decent. The roon was clean but had no curtain with the blinds and the patio arrangement orientation towards the door uncovered was awkward.

Good enough!

We had the smallest room, Brass Lady, which was fine since we really just needed a bedroom. It had a nice private porch and decent bathroom. The communal kitchen area was very nice and the hostess, Joyce, was a real treasure. We enjoyed her hospitality and conversation. Walk to the beach was easy and walk to pier for sunset was easier. We would stay here again.

Excellent! B&B! So friendly and accommodating! Wonderful continental breakfast. They let us leave our luggage while we walked around, because our flight was later. I recommend 100%

Cozy Oasis

This property was so quaint! Went here to what a friend to kickoff a bachelorette weekend and we loved it. Great location and incredible shower. Hated to leave for our next destination and would have stayed here longer. Planning to take our partners back.
