“The proximity to the beach here is truly remarkable, practically stepping out onto the sand, and the ocean views from the rooms and communal decks are stunning. I appreciated the thoughtful touches like beach towels and the lively fire pits with s'mores kits, creating a comfortable atmosphere that locals and visitors alike seem to favor. While some find the mattresses could use an update, the overall value and the agreeable staff make this a notable stop along the coast.”
