I recently stayed at this charming little Florida motel, and it was such a wonderful experience! The place has that classic, cozy vibe you hope for in a small coastal getaway—colorful details, well-kept rooms, and a welcoming atmosphere that instantly puts you at ease. We had a cute rocking glider outside of our room and enjoyed sitting outside every evening. What really made the stay special was the staff. Every single person I interacted with was incredibly kind, helpful, and genuinely seemed to enjoy making guests feel at home. From quick local recommendations to thoughtful little touches, they went above and beyond. The location was perfect—close to the beach and Lauderdale by the sea for dinners. The motel felt clean, safe, and full of character. It’s the kind of place you want to return to again and again, not just for the comfort, but for the people who make it memorable. We loved the staff ! Highly recommend this hidden gem if you’re looking for something authentic, friendly, and refreshingly different.

ROMANTIC GETAWAY

The place is just perfect. Not to big, has a family friendly feel. The pool is super nice. Parking is easy and convenient. Publix is a 3 minute walk. The beach less than 5. The best is the management and room services. They care and want to make sure your stay is perfect. Also you have access to laundry and a grill. GIVE THIS PLACE A STAY. 🌴💕
