Both location and staff at Lighthouse made this little getaway special for my husband and I. Located right in between short sands and long sands and walkable to both, the room was large, clean, and had an ocean view. Excellent communication with the staff who had our room ready early for us. :) We definitely recommend!

There is minimal insulation in the room we were in. We could hear the person above us (we were in #9) going to the bathroom. We could also hear when people were walking above us. The tv was ridiculously small (probably 22"). Hot water took a while to come on.

Meh...

Location is amazing (right down the street from Nubble Light) but don't let the name fool you. It's a motel... adequate but super basic.

Disappointing

I was disappointed at the condition of the place. When we walked in the office area and checked in, it smelled like stale food. Our unit, although spacious, was super dated and the bathroom has something white on the floor that seemed to be baby powder? so it appeared not to have been cleaned enough. The location was great, but honestly would never go back.
