Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
It is very conveniently located to the beach, the restaurants and tasting rooms.
Loved the beachfront location and ability to use the property’s bikes to explore the local area. The room was comfortable and had plenty of space for our one night stay. We only used one pool area but found it clean and warm. Really lovely stay and would definitely return!
Loved this hotel!! We’ve always wanted to stay here and I’m so glad we finally did! Such a cute and quaint place, conveniently located across from the beach and within walking distance to the funk zone and lots of great restaurants. Definitely will be back!

Really superb service. I am glad they are doing a full renovation of the rooms and think it will vastly improve once complete. the fire pits are lovely and the staff really looks after their guests.
Wonderful property. We stayed at rooms 152 and 158, and they were excellent. Not sure of other rooms. These were renovated. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Also, they have complementary bikes, beach toys, boggie boards, etc.
