Great place to stay
The room was very cozy with fireplace and tub spa. But the service was outstanding. Everyone we met was extremely friendly and helpful. The roof top patio is unbelievable, with unlimited views of the ocean and pretty good food.

It was great location! Loved hearing the waves crash on the shore. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Especially loved the barista on the top deck ‘Jo Mama Coffee and fresh quiche (vegetable/bacon and cheese) and croissants (almond & cinnamon). Will visit again!

great location
The staff is incredibly warm and welcoming, creating a friendly atmosphere with snacks and ice cream for guests. However, the hotel lacks an elevator, so we had to climb several flights of stairs to reach our room on the third floor. The linens are clean and old, the room shows signs of wear. Overall, it feels more like a three-star hotel, yet the exceptional service from the staff elevates the experience to a five-star level.

Our room was clean. It did not have a coffee maker and every time the person above us walked across the floor we heard loud squeaking. You could say it’s rustic or antiquated. It’s been a long time since I had a metal key to my room.

I upgraded to fancy suite however once inside found TV wasn’t functioning. Ok no big at coast I’ll live. But the huge problem was that the reason for upgrading was jacuzzi tub for my wife and I. It was a special occasion fancy champagne and everything. Well guess what it didn’t work. I complained to front desk they said they would note it on my bill. No compensation at all. Not a word or email back.

The manager and staff were wonderful. There is no elevator, steep stairs, no telephone, shabby furniture, no closet, no hangars. We had to leave. I wasn’t about to climb those steep stairs one more time.

Great spot by the Beach
I stayed here for a babymoon with my best friend. The room was quaint and had a fridge. The rooftop area that overlooks the ocean was the perfect hang spot. Walkable to all the stores and the beach. We ate next door at the restaurant and it was perfect. They do the coffee bar and breakfast daily with options for iced/hot coffee, a quiche daily, and an oatmeal option.
