Perfect little family get a away
We had a great stay at Silver Gull. Location is absolutely perfect. The balcony had an ocean view and you are just steps from the beach. The coffee is lobby was delicious! Parking is free and right under the hotel which was really nice. Rooms were clean and beds were very comfortable. I love the beach access from the hotel, esp when you have little ones.. it makes it way easier to enjoy the beach. Cant beat the sunrises and sunsets right from the hotel - Thanks for a great stay Silver Gull!

While this is an older property, it was extremely clean & the room was well appointed - including the kitchen, fridge & stovetop. You cannot beat the location, which my surfer hubby & teen son loved and took full advantage of! Manager was very friendly & covered parking was convenient. Despite fact that the furnishings or kitchen/bath weren’t modern - everything was very clean!! The balcony overlooking the sea & dining table were fab. Both full beds were comfortable and plenty of pillows - stellar air conditioning. Will absolutely stay again next time we’re here.

The hotel is right on the beach with free parking convenience is the best thing. The rooms are clean although a little older, every room has a view of the ocean and a balcony. As a rating it deserves 4.6 stars
