Our stay at the Cottage Inn by the Sea was an amazing one. We especially loved the spectacular location next to the shoreline. Enjoying the stunning views along the ocean-side walkway with its many seating areas and having easy walkable access onto the beach were the most appreciated aspects of this property. Also, the sweet swag bag for our senior dog was a wonderful touch.

Access to the beach and beach view was great!
Room was very cozy, beachy, had a fireplace and clean.
Although the Bluff cafe was good, it would be great if the hotel had a sit down restaurant.
Thank you

The property was charming and the grounds were maintained and attractive. We loved being able to open the windows in our room so we could feel the sea breeze and sleep with the sound of the waves.
