We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. It was just one night, but the rooms have an outdoor area overlooking the ocean. It's beautiful. Nice continental breakfast that overlooks the ocean as well. The pool looked nice, but we were unable to use while we were there because of the weather.

Relaxing ocean side retreat!

Everything about the Ocean house is fantastic! Right on the ocean! Warm large pool to swim in, golf course right behind the hotel, looks challenging. Fire pit! Really good Continental breakfast. Free cookies every day at 4pm! Comfy beds and generous room size. Highly recommend!

I came for a weekend alone to be away from everything and it was absolutely wonderful. Clean room, beautiful pool and you can’t say enough about the views and sounds of waves crashing on the rocks. It was exactly what I needed. They have a lovely continental breakfast with great options like warm, flaky ham and Swiss croissants and fresh fruit. I do wish there was a bit more privacy between the balconies. I could hear my neighbors arguing through the walls but they stopped and I got a wonderful nights sleep. Loved waking up to the sunrise outside my window. Can’t wait to go back!

This was so perfect for a quick girls overnight with myself and my two tween daughters. We don’t live far from here and just wanted to take a quick getaway. The pool was perfect and the hot tub was great! Can’t beat the ocean view. The hammock, fire pit, chess, and cornhole were very appreciated my by girls and I enjoyed being able to read on the outdoor patio area. We are definitely making this a yearly (or more) thing. Hotel staff was very sweet.

Everything was fantastic except for one thing. The check-in man on Saturday night around 6 PM was perfect. He was knowledgeable and wonderful. However, the woman at the front desk on Sunday was not helpful. I didn’t seem to know what was going on. In fact, I called ahead of time to ask about dining options in the area, and she was unable to give me any

Bathroom small but clean. Hot tub and pool were nice. Breakfast was basic. Overall quiet and comfortable. I’d definitely return.
