After reading reviews I was nervous to stay here but we had a great stay. Although the hotel isn’t updated, the pools and the whirlpool inside the room were very clean. The staff were all very nice and helpful. The view is beautiful and the access to the beach and pier are top tier.

The area is a bit congested and dated, but the beach is beautiful and the amenities are all right there! Much was closed due to the pandemic, but we'll go back to see more.

October is a great time to go! Tourists are gone, locals are nice, and it's easy to get around town. Peaceful getaway. Will be going back.
