Ideal location right on the beach.
Right on the beach, easy parking, a little tired and dated. Breakfast very limited. Given advice on local eating establishments however we didn’t use any of them as were out and about and decided to eat elsewhere.

That was our 5th stay over the past 15 years, and we still like this hotel. The room with the view and the balcony are great. The people are nice. It is a little old, the building may need a refresh, but overall we enjoyed it. The breakfast was good. We love being able to walk on the beach from the hotel.

It is an older property but you can tell they are working hard to give it a new facelift. Unique layout with the bathroom in a separate bedroom. Best breakfast on our trip. Staff is very attentive and makes sure tables are clean.

Water is right next to some huge drainage pipe. They let some people in a van just camp out in it outside my room. didn't do anything about it when I brought it to their attention. Window to the bay let in a ton of light. Pool was locked up. Breakfast was meh. They kept texting me. Seem to care if you like it. Maybe I'm being a bit picky. Not much in terms of restaurants near by.
