Refreshing stay with Tropical Inn. The pool and hot tub area were magical. It was especially comforting to know that the round the clock security team of Rudy and Larry was always around. The location was perfect. We can not wait for our return trip!

So easy to get around, right on Duvet St!
I will say the rooms are tiny, not a lot of room for your belongings. The bathroom door was a bifold that just was kinda there.
The staff was soooo kind and accommodating, they have a small little made to order breakfast, coffee machine, beer, pop and snacks for you.
We stayed during the coldest week, so it was nice to have the heated pool and hot tub. But, you might want to bring your own beach towel as they were out a couple times we sat in the hot tub.
Also, just to note there is no parking at this hotel, you must find your own parking.
