Quick Easy Family Beach Getaway

The beds were very comfortable and the location is perfect. There are other more expensive options, but we felt that the value was spot-on and the kids LOVED it, especially the balcony over the street that looks over the bay and wharf. The restaurant across the street, Iconic, serves great food and a large selection...their cafe is perfect for an early morning departure for your adventures as well.

Rita, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was clean and the view very nice. Check in staff wasn’t very welcoming or friendly. While walking to the beach a worker was watering and didn’t stop using the hose as I walked by and I slipped and fell and didn’t ask if I was okay. So not the greatest experience overall.

Allison, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect spot

The room had an amazing view of the wharf, beach and ocean. I loved that there were so many windows and glass areas so I could enjoy while I was in my room. Being right across from the beach, I could hear the peaceful ocean waves the entire stay. There were also patio areas and chairs for viewing also. A great way to enjoy the area when you are away from the crowds and noise. What a great location

8/10 Very good

A room with a nice view but not much else

It was all about the view for us, but the hotel didn’t have a closet because the fridge was in the way. It was a small room and the use of space needed to be thought out. Also, it has the privacy of a motel. The shades didn’t block any light and you could see through them. The shades were also too long and the AC blew the shades up. It was really strange. Everything else was fine.
Emily, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect location with views of the pier and the beach, walking distance to shops, restaurants amd attractions. Loved the private balcony with ocean views!
Shane, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great view with comfort

We enjoyed the stay there. The room was a little bigger than a normal hotel room. The bed was super comfortable. I love the Front that you could go out and we had a view of the beach which was wonderful.
Helena, 1-night trip

Heidy, 1-night trip

Location! Perfect walkable distance to everything—the boardwalk, the beach, the pier. Staff was great. Room was big. Balcony was amazing. Will definitely stay here again!
Janee, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Great location, Rooms need a refresh

The location cannot be beat, but the room I was in was atrocious. It has the dirtiest carpet you'll ever see, no chairs or tables, dirty walls and broken everything. Do not book any rooms in the back building. The ones with ocean view and the front building are nicer.
