"Room with an ocean view"

10.0

Ocean view from the deck was awesome. Bed was comfortable & was very quiet. Beach was a block away

Shower was nice, but could have had more water pressure. No other issues

"Vising my college student"

10.0

The location was perfect. Felt like you had your own little beach oasis. The set up outside is wonderful. I will be returning to stay with family.

I probably had the worse room on the property but only two rooms were available at the time of my booking. I was traveling solo so the room was fine but the pictures on booking.com were deceiving. Parking was not the best.
