"Great place to chill, close to everything and nice people!"

9.0

Location was amazing with beautiful views of the water and wharf. Immaculate grounds with such colorful flowers. Bargetto wine and cheese in the afternoon was really nice. And breakfast was delicious. Staff very attentive. Even had a small bag of salt water taffy in room!

Beds need replacing. If you have a bad back they are not supportive.

"Very pleasant stay."

9.0

Views were spectacular. Staff was very friendly. Breakfast was great. Very quick walk to the beach. We were able to park our monster of a truck with no trouble. Lovely spaces to sit outside and drink coffee.

Tiny tiny quibbles: 1) no direct beach access (hotel next door had direct beach access). 2) The way the breakfast area was set up, people were crashing into each other and into the tables. 3) I didn't think to look inside the ice buckets for the glasses, I guess that one is on me.

"Perfect spot!"

10.0

I liked the view of the ocean and the multiple patio spots to sit and relax while viewing the ocean. I liked the Cookies and lemonade in the afternoon, the wine and cheese in the late afternoon and the breakfast. I liked sharing stories with Nayeli at the front desk. I liked the short walk to the beach. I liked the heater in the room. I liked the clean room and bathroom. I liked sitting by the fire pit at night. I liked how quiet it was.

Nothing.
