Very efficient check-in. If you want to stay on the beach, this is the place for you. Walk out the back gate and you’re there. The single rooms are small but they managed to get everything you need in, and who’s going to be spending all that much time in the room anyway. There are a variety of other room options though, and even the namesake cottages for large groups.

Property is older but clean and maintained. The location is amazing, you just walk directly onto the beach. Your room will be just a few steps away. Area around has some partying and homeless but felt very safe. This was a beautiful stay in a wonderful location.

Our family of four stayed in a ground floor, two-bedroom suite from a Monday to Thursday over spring break. Like many others have said, the rooms themselves are a bit outdated. Having said that though, we had everything we needed. My wife and I had our own bedroom and bathroom. Our kids had their own bedroom with individual beds. And they were able to use the bathroom off the living area, so they didn’t disturb us. The kitchen area had a fridge, microwave, dishwasher, and coffee maker. The only downside to a ground-level unit is that we had upstairs neighbors. They weren’t noisy, but we could hear them walking around a lot which was a little annoying at night. The biggest appeal of this property though is its proximity to the ocean. We were literally steps from the beach, which was awesome. We would definitely stay at this property again and most likely rent one of the standalone cottages. The staff were all very polite and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay!
