This was the perfect location if you want to be on the Homer spit. Close to shopping and restaurants and the ocean can be seen from every window. Beds were super comfy and the shower hot. We will return if we need lodging in Homer again!

Wonderful Stay with Stunning Views in Homer Spit

I spent two nights at this beautiful hotel right by the water in Homer Spit. The owner is a genuinely friendly and helpful person who made the stay even more enjoyable. My room was exceptionally clean and beautifully decorated, with an incredible view. I truly enjoyed my visit and will definitely return. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area.
