Perfect stay..lovely people and place. As soon as I arrived, I saw dolphins, beach bunnies, and a ton of birds. Hotel was extreme topnotch oceanfront. My favorite part was that this hotel is run efficiently with in a minimalist way that does not add to the heavy consumption and waste going on all around. Beautiful very quiet peaceful place and I hope to again and again.

The view is nice, the air conditioner worked and the bed was comfortable. The TV was good also. The room was clean. It does need some work however. the Bathroom door did not close and there were a few other minor things. Overall we had a nice stay. If everything was perfect it probably would be more expensive.

The view of the beach and ocean were amazing from the balcony, we were on the third floor. Room was extremely dated. No water pressure, bathroom and floor was dirty on arrival, had to sweep it our first day. Bathroom door would not shut and just a mid grade stay. 4 day stay and only minimal bathroom supplies. Motel is in a good location close to restaurants, piers, and shops.
