Walked right out to the beach! Although we didn't use the pool, we walked by it and it was clean. Beds were comfortable and rooms were spacious. Staff was helpful in recommending places to eat. Would definitely recommend this place.

The hotel initial looked older but we were pleasantly surprised at the updated rooms, comfortable beds, access out your door to the beach, and a great sunning and kids area. It has the outer feel of the older hotels but the comfort of new rooms. We would stay here again. Great staff.

The view was beautiful, of course. We stayed in a walk out patio room. The best one available! Probably my favorite place so far, super close , walkout beach access. The hotel is old, but very clean. The beds are hard. But, I’d definitely stay again.
