We (a couple and our 9 month old) stayed for three days and had a pleasant experience overall. The kitchenette room was spacious. We enjoyed being so close to the pool and beach and the breakfast was very nice. Only "complaints" would be that the floor in our room had a ton of sand and was dirty when we first entered, we went to a Target and bought something to clean it with. The couch also had some stains and sheets were a bit scratchy. But all said, we would return!

Good for Overnight, Decent pricing
Was it the most luxurious stay? Not quite, but not terrible. Very small inn that seems to have had some recent modern renovations! Breakfast was surprisingly yummy (breakfast sandwiches, muffins, waffle maker, yogurt, etc). Our view from our room was gorgeous and the location of the inn is perfect to get to various activities! Staff was very pleasant. No hot water for two days to shower so we had to shower with ice cold water. Rooms could be detail cleaned better but overall weren’t bad.

This property far surpassed our expectations. We had an amazing stay, and plan to return. The staff were all amazing! The room was spectacular!! The gazebo with the high tops overlooking the water was the best place in the house to watch the sunrise. Don’t miss your chance to stay at this hotel. It will not disappoint.
