On the beach, close to food and shops. Can hear through walls, best to be on top floor if possible

The rooms are outdated and not very comfortable. The location can't be beat. The beachbar with music is a great touch. We went in October so the scene was fairly mellow.
In the future, I would visit the bar on the beach, but stay somewhere else.

Pleasant two night stay. Front desk very accommodating. Gave us an upgraded room, but rooms are a bit outdated style wise. Many places to walk to and try for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks. Nice beach and outdoor bar.

People in the office were friendly and helpful. Room was large, fairly clean, could use a full/deep cleaning. The bar played loud "pop" music from 11 AM until 1 AM, people were smoking and drinking everywhere outside, including the crowded beach which gave it a "Frat house" atmosphere. The beach was crowded on Friday and VERY crowded on Saturday. We learned the hotel has a parking lot across the street where they charge cars to park and allow people beach access. In our opinion, there's not enough room to allow people not staying at the hotel beach access and the adjacent beaches enforce the "private beach" signs so people can't set up nearby. There was very little if any outside lighting, two flights of unfamiliar stairs in the dark is not safe - it's dangerous. There were a couple of restaurants within walking distance, one REQUIRED reservations. The ocean is quite rough with a strong undertow and large waves - fine with us but difficult for small children, although there was a lifeguard.

Parking was very tight. Beach bar expectations a bit much, and inability to sleep because of partying on both side of the motel. I would recommend not staying if you’re bringing your family. If partying is what you’re looking for you would enjoy. Had some great things about it, some not so much….

Excellent location, great bar on beach, friendly staff, mediocre room, bad housekeeping. Decor was old, bed creaked loudly with slightest movement, coffee stains on table, Sandy floors. Too bad, could be an awesome place

We have stayed there for two years now. This year was a bit of a disappointment. Our door was left wide open two days in a row after housecleaning was in there. When reported we were told that their locks were being replaced in august and that they were sorry. After the first time this was no longer acceptable. We had all of our belongings in there as well as our children’s belongings. The second time we went down to inform the office there was no real explanation and we received the same explanation as the locks were being replaced in august.
