I was pleasantly surprised by this place! It was simple but so clean and the staff was great. The kayaks and water access were perfect for the kids and gave so many options for activities. Then the regular beach is a minute walk away so it was the best!

The owner & front staff were helpful & welcoming. Room was very clean. The kayaks, swing,& outdoor shower were great! If you are looking for 5 star HOTEL, this is not it, but if you want casual, safe, basic & welcoming, this IS it! You are in walking distance to restaurants, beach and very walkable. Very nice!

What a lovely little place. It is what it is; a refurbished roadside motel with modest rooms and fun decor but it does it so well. Adorable, great location, clean and nice mattresses. Really loved it.

The motel was OK-- room was not terribly clean and bathroom door was off its hinge. However, the convenient location of the motel and the free kayaks for use made up for that.
