Stunning Views!

Great location! It’s right on the haul road and has stunning views. The front office staff was very accommodating, letting us store a surfboard there! The hotel is very conscious about water usage and has low flow showers. You can rent bikes at the hotel next door. Wonderful place!

The room was nice. The deck was awesome to view the ocean. The TV was strange, channels did not match up with the guide. The bed was horrible. You could hear the springs and the sides of the bed were worn down. We had to sleep more in the middle cause you would almost roll out of bed.
