Had a great time, close to the beach. Parking was hard but the valet helped remedy that. Friendly helpful staff.
Taylor, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice room renovations, comfy bed, great options for walking to shop for necessities very close by…used the bikes so often, and the beach access was terrific. I would totally stay here again. Loved that daily maid service swapped towels and new coffee/made bed, etc…hotel has a retro vibe which was cool.
Green space and nicely landscaped!
Fun games and very clean. Place was quiet despite many guests.
Bar and restaurant on the beach which is very rare here it seems.
Watch the sunrise with coffee everyday!

Fun place to stay. Great beach location, comfortable beds, clean pools/hot tub, good bar/restaurant, free bikes and rode all the way to the end of the bike path. Convenient to airport too…
Jennifer, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel has a chill vibe. We liked the smaller size, decor, free bikes and location. The ocean was to rough to swim in in front of the hotel, but that wasn't a big deal as we were out most days doing other things. The staff was great. We also liked the singers that played every night.

Shore Up!

really nice hotel and great staff. Had to stay here because my flight got canceled. The shower was a little bit strange other than that. Everything was great.
Wendy, 1-night trip

Great stay!

We had a great stay here. We just needed a place to stay for the night before we could get into our timeshare, and this was a fantastic choice. The service was excellent. The rooms were clean, the beds were comfortable, and there was even a free photo booth in the lobby that my daughter just loved. Would definitely recommend this as a great great place to stay.

Convenient and comfortable

I was referred here from a friend and I glad I listened. This is a great place especially when considering affordability. Very comfortable place. While not the most upscale, it is still very clean and well maintained. Great pool and is also just steps from the beach. Nightly fire pits and live music at Lava Lava on the property. Rooms are perfect size and beds are nice and comfortable. Lots of good shopping and food nearby. Easy parking . The staff was friendly and helpful. We will be back
