Seaside Inn & Suites

"The room was comfortable and quiet. The hotel is basic but fine for one or two nights. It’s centrally located with free parking and a nice perk was the self-serve station to make coffee drinks in the front office."

Surf City Inn and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean. The staff was extremely helpful and nice. My husband is an amputee and I forgot to request a downstairs room when I booked and they were kind enough to accommodate us at check in. Definitely will stay there again."

Hotel Solares

10/10 Excellent

"We were very happy with the staff and the condition of the room. Nice and close to the beach. Walked there in about 5 minutes. Best hotel we have stayed at considering the many times we have visited. The only negative thing about the hotel was no breakfast with my stay like most hotels."

Ocean Echo Inn and Beach Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"What a wonderful place! My husband and I and our two dogs truly enjoyed our time here. Walking distance to the beach. We enjoyed a nice beach bonfires every night. Can’t wait to go back."
