This place was perfect for a quick getaway. We paid approximately $200 a night and while we did not have an ocean view, the beach was within a short walking distance. There was Keurig coffee always available at the office, the staff was so friendly and accommodating, and the rooms were immaculate. I would definitely stay here again.
