“The Italianate Victorian façade is a charming prelude to this inn, situated across from the pier and offering genuine ocean views. Its position is key, making most beachside attractions entirely walkable, and the daily wine and cheese hour is a welcome touch. I found the staff genuinely accommodating, adding a personal warmth that elevates the stay.”
